hey guys, just throwing you a heads up. i'm parting my turbo II... has an assload of aftermarket parts, coilovers, infini seats, fmic, plus some black s5 stuff, dash etc
i'm located in missoula, has a decent motor too... think the rear rotor went, but the car is a perfect parts car for a turbo conversion.
chassis is also somewhat race prepped, if anyone want to build a wicked track/autox car.
just let me know if anyone wants anything.

well engine is in, PFC is wired and all I am waiting on is my datalogit and my Koyo....
This is finally starting to come together, I am not gonna lie, I don't enjoy wrenching all day like I used to. I seem be in a rush because of daughter and work and even when I have these days off( I took leave for 4 days to do strictly the car) I still am in overdrive mode and can't catch a break.
Lets hope this one holds up. It should granted it has new muscle, brain and soul.
How goes your battle Ransom? Get that FMIC buddy, you will like.
Does anyone have a set of lowering springs for sale, preferbly RB or einbach?

Haha Elijah we can use the press at me shop sometime.
The battle has just begun. Not really though I broke my right hand so working on the car is a biotch. I am pretty much wrapped up also just need to wire up the injectors and hook the power up and that pretty much wraps it up. I am waiting on some stainless pipe, a muffler, pod, and vac line fer deh map sensor. As far as the frontmount goes that is going to wait a while.

O'LA bitches!
Well I have been having a hell of a two weeks. I am sure you all know I accidentaly fried my PFC.
So I am still awaiting word on the repair cost of that boo-boo.
My push-loc hose from Jegs is NOT made fuel! I didn't read the fine print because, oh I don't know...they sell it in their ******* fuel section! ha ha.
So I ordered some Russell NHRA approved push lok hose. Comes only in blue so cool i guess.
Got my Koyo and Cork sport shround in. Shroud fits well and needed a little cutting. Still need to adjust the gap between the fam and shroud to spec.
Other then that I am estimating it will be done by August, late August IF APEXI doesn't take two months to fix it. That is the rumor of estimated repair time. If it does take that long then oh well, I will hope for a mild fall/winter.
Ransom, sorry about your hand man. I will get you a handicap sticker.
Matt, whats new? Kyle?

Haha the hand is not really a big deal I really needed the vacation I guess.
Waiting on exhaust and Intake parts then it should be time to fire it up real soon.
Yes Matt what have you been doing?
We just put a new stainless line for kyles oil pressure gauge and he Fixed up his gauge situation.
Shart I need gauge Pods too.
Well I have 1 wire to solder up and the Haltech install is finished. I hope. You should come by and check it out this weekend sometime. Should I maybe give you a call when we are at the shop this weekend?
