hellz yes, excitied to see!!!

 

200 hours! Since when did you work on my car! LOL Bobby, did however and I really appreciated his help, people make mistakes, that's life, so you can't condem them for it. Though, if it wasn't for you letting me use your shop John, I would have never been able to do this project, so I am truely in your debt.

Here's a sample pic to wet you peoples palettes, need to get to a computer without corporate intranet limitations to put the remaining coast pic's in photobucket.

I can tell you one thing, this thing is eager to rev. It's a good thing I'm running the stock ecu, because it's imposing a good rpm limit leash on me. Really sucks in traffic though.

 

Okay here you go. Looks like my PowerFC is dead, so I am in need of a PFC soon. Just did the 500 mile oil change everything looks good.

Enjoy the pics

 

Very sexy!!! Where did you go for the photoshoot? Great location!

Where did you score the 99 spec plateless bumper?! I've been looking everywhere for one and no one offers them for sale any longer, at least as far as I can tell...

 

How did Apex push that car all around the coast. Wasn't his arms tired ? I thought the only way for a rotary to get moved around his shop was to push it or on the back of a flat bed

Seriously that car looks ******* awesome . I think I saw it's mate yesterday on 205north getting off at 82nd. Black FD with larger crome rims,HIDs, and I think it was a woman driving

 

Nice ******* restore, more like a new car...

 

Very nice, what tires do you have on SSR's?


Jay7...

 

Time to drag out the good camera and get some nice shots

 

Is that nahelem bay? Yea, nice brand new FD w/ all the goodies! Again, Awesome Job!

 

The tire's are victoracer V710s, I plan on using them for Hillclimb and AutoX.

Started building the Sub box today. This sub calls out for .75 ft^3, I'm at .69 ft^3, close enough. Have some carbon/kevlar that I will be using as a top layer for some show. Need to finish cutting the top panel and get more resin to finish the job.

Found a used PFC that I bought today, should be seeing it sometime next week. Can't wait to start tuning this thing.

Peace

 

i was so stoked when u brought it in. i cant get over how amazing it is!!! ah the sound is so amazing and ur recirc is so amazingly badass

 

that is one hot fd

 

looks great.
how big of a grim did you have on you face when you first drove it?
are going to just do hillclimb and autocross with it?
and is it going to be a semi daily at some point?

 

Thanks Mitch and 4signs

School boy excitement grin, mostly it was sheer elation of having a long *** project like this come to near completion.

Track days, Time Attack, spirited back road driving, etc, basically everything outside of wheel to wheel competition, which would require a six point cage in order to do. If I did that the car would be for racing only and all the interior would be stripped out. Which I may come to actually doing if the thing becomes no longer fun on the streets.

And yes it's going to be a semi daily driver, I overbuilt this thing to do double duty without blinking an eye.

 

I especially love how the hood turned out, looks unbelievable with paint...

 

i know that feeling. i had that when i got my rebuilt to run and drove mine for the first time in over a year.
wow so you and that fd are going to be busy. i have to imagine that its way nice and comphy to drive.
and seriously great job. and i agree with tim your hood is amazing

 

Sub box mostly done, decided to save the CF/Kevlar for some ducting I will be doing and will just paint the sub box once I’m finished with the setup. Need to finish the wiring and make a mounting tab at the spare tire center hold down point. Also need to do some more sanding to get rid of the roughness of the glass work, but so far it’s turning out nice.

Peace

 

It's comfy when the road is smooth, but it is nice not the less.

Thank you, thank you, it took a lot of work to get it to come out as nice as it did.

 

Got the amp and sub all connected and damn it's nice. If I set it for a fair amount of bass I get a back massage while I'm driving, hehe. Anyways it turned out really nice, just need to finish the sub box. After thinking through it some more I will be using the carbon kevlar, but will make two storage divisions out of the remaining spare tire well. One of them will be where the AI tank will reside.

Also Finally got my ARC titanium shift **** in, very nice.

 

I've found that the spare tire well is a good place to store my toolkit and mini air-compressor, since the RB BBK eliminates the spare.

 

nice setup with the sub. I'll probably do something similar with a raised floor over the top so I can still put items in the back. The carbon will be a great touch too.

 

How do the front speakers sound using the stock Bose box? I have the same front speakers as you with a bracket I made using fiberglass and a baffle. Do you have a template or some better pics of the way it is mounted? I would like to try it on one side and compare it to my other side to see which one works better.

my email is: cozmokraemer@gmail.com if that is easier.

Great job on everything!

 

I plan on having a small tool kit, flares, etc. and a AI injection tank there.

Actually, I'm strictly running off of the 4 channel amp I got. I do not have a template of the speaker bracket, should have made one , anyways. email sent with pics.

Peace

 

I am running my Focals and a JL Audio 10w3v3 off of the JL Audio 400/4 amp. It sounds great! Plenty of bass and plenty of power to overcome the exhaust noise when you want it to. My only complaint about my setup is that I think those Focal Polyglass speakers need a little bit more airspace then I gave them with my baffle. Using the stock box if I could adapt it would probably bring them to life even more. I will see if I can figure something out...

Thanks for the email.
