small world.

 

hey roberto, curious if you had any updates on anything?

 

what front bar is it ?

 

nice project cant wait to see finished i got a friend thats about to do the 2jz swap to his fd also looks like a fun project

 

Hey Guys...car hasn't been touched in a year. Sitting in my garage....I'm planning on starting back on it this spring. Sorry, I haven't been on the forum in a while.

 

On a side note...are there any GOOD and reasonably priced headlight kits available these days? Non flip up and keeping the same lines. Good performance at night is a must, and it has to look great.

 

about damn time you show back up man lol!

there should be a few flush mounts out... blanking out on who makes what though.

edit... hit up moosejaw, he's got one set i know of off the top and i'm pretty sure he's had his for a good long while. could prolly give you some insight.

 

that hood looks terrible.

 

I know this thread is old but I was wondering if there was an update on your car?

I just read the whole thing and I want to do the swap now.

How much do you think it would cost for the swap if I kept the motor stock and just got everything up and running. Any major issues that you found that I should be aware of?

 

hit up the tech2 forum, they have kind of a list of things costs on there.

too you wont be able to keep the stock twins, they don't fit in the fd.

 

Back from the dead...I got motivated to go in the garage a few weeks back.

These are steel burnout flares I got from Rizwan 2 years ago!

 

Some more updates...steel flares were more work to put on than fiberglass ones!!

I cut open where the quarter transitions into the rocker and welded tabs to flare it out some and give a smoother radius where it goes into the rocker.

 

Aeroquip latches/hood pin. The gaps are horrible with all of these aftermarket parts. I'm fixing them now.

 

good to see you're still alive stage, if you end up not wanting that project let me know ahhahahah. lookin good though!

 

haha...thanks Seth. I'm glad I'm alive too!

Hey...everything is always for sale for the right price.

If you have interest in a particular color, better let me know soon! The whole car will be in primer this Sunday or Monday. Starting to see the light...

 

Stage, can you please help me out here: https://www.rx7club.com/shineautoproject-161/burnout-vs-sanai-need-help-dimensions-894206/+

I am getting no love. I'd sure appreciate it.

Good luck with the project, keep it up.

 

hahahhahaha oh i'm sure price would be way more then i could swing any time soon. i decided to hold off on anything until i paid off my legacy... mostly cause i ended up throwing more money into my home (poor idea i think now hahaha)

i've always been partial to blues and whites though hahahah!
