my 8

 

Here's a few shots that I took last night. This was the first set of fenders pulled out of the original tri-point molds (now owned by Ronin Speedworks). Still need to color sand and polish.







Check out those fender lines! :yay: :yay:

 

sweet, i remember that car still smelling like fresh paint at ssxiii lol

 

^^ nice! then you opened the hood and I :bg ***:

 

Joel....if you found any uhhmm...err..."love stains" on your car anywhere-I'm sorry. Couldn't contain myself lol


and 10yearrx7-what's wrong with what was under the hood? I saw a cleannn *** swap WITH AC!

 

There's a reason for that: the last coat of clear got shot at 10:30 Thursday night. I got up at 5:00 am Friday to put body back together.

See your stated goal in your siggy but substitute 462 rwhp and you've got my ride. You can do it with a rotary too but the compromises you make are different.

As to the love stains: fixed back seats make this quite a bit harder than normal for me to christen with the wife.

Thanks for the love y'all.

Oh I wasn't with a woman...I was making love to your car man lol.

 

It's deffinetly badass and I didn't say it was slow, I just hate seeing the same old thing. I know it is probably the best swap you can do, except for it throwing off the Perfect 50/50 weight distribution, i'm just sick of it is all. Plus I hate corvettes more than any car on the planet. Anyway, nice car but you should've put an s54 motor in it.

 

shut up

 

NewsFlash-the LS1 does NOT change the 50/50 weight distribution. It weights the same as a 13b-t pretty much. Gotta love the all aluminum motors Chevy made

And idk about "same old thing" Ls1 swaps are still kinda "rare" on the 2nd Gen.

 

My new Rotary... first one.



Domo riding shotgun cuz my fiance calls it a death trap.

 

 

Uh oh, here comes the:

Joel, I think some sidesteps would complete that car well! Total transformation from what it used to be, gotta get that wing!

 

What color is that? Looks sick.

 

didn't take a picture of my FC during SS so here's an accidental overexposed picture i took when i was messing with my GF's DSLR.

a pic of both of my ladies.

 

aww how cute. lulz.

 

Rotaries are super lightweight except for the darn manifolds! The Renesis took a step forward on lightening the engine but I can't remember if it was the housings, irons, or manifolds.

Anyways...


Absolutely gorgeous. Keep it looking like a beautiful SA!

My car is still in the shop so here is a pic of my brother's car at SS13.

 

 

cutesy cutesy.

 

Paint code K8, "Tornado Silver." The look really varies on it with lighting; sometimes it looks light gray, sometimes it's nearly black, sometimes the metallic really stands out & it sparkles.

Same car, next day, different light:

 

oops double posted

 

Thanks for the pic of my car in the back ground Grey & Red Vert

 

Hopefully one day I will get back in the RX game... FD or RX8.
