if it's a manual rack you'll be fine! de-powered power racks suck at first, but still you get used to it.
have fun |
The best kind, as far as I'm concerned.
|
Installed temp. gauge, swapped to the aluminum hood, and dropped the spare diff. last night!!!
Coilovers have shipped!!! *fingers crossed that they get here before Saturday* |

wow thats clean...please don't ruin it by turning it in to a MISSILE! just drift the crap out of it and keep it classy.
|
I'm going to have to agree with slowgxl, that thing looks pretty damned straight.
Reminds me way too much of my first base FC, on 280ZX wheels and a 'vert hood. |
that is way too nice to be a missle.... yet :)
|
you have way too many landscaping tools. |
Thanks for all the nice comments!!! I had a great time today just practicing, meeting new people and having fun! SO much fun in fact, that I'm now running on one rotor :/ But what do you expect for an original 143k engine revved up like a top :)
The car performed ALOT better than I expected for an old engine and a questionable clutch haha. May end up starting a NA build thread... Thanks again, Andrew |
