New Banana Photos... *56k will die a slow death*

[daedalus]

Washed her for the first time in 13 months. Yup. Shes been in storage for 13 months. The Zaino was still crazy glossy! Did a basic detail on the exterior and engine (needed some work). I got my new lense for my D70s today (18-70 AF-X) and i wanted to try it out.

Disclaimers for bad pics: I have been messing around with HDR photography but forgot to turn off my bracketing so much of my shots were either overexposed or underexposed. Add that to the fact that the sun started hiding when i was rushing to find a picture spot at the last second (have you seen a worse picture setting?). So i just snapped a few.

Who says stock-ISH can't be sexy?

haha u mustve been under a BIG rock for the last year... hes been trying to sell it for a while now and parted just about everything out

god Im starting to wish I got yellow....love that color


and I dont think its completely stock...hes still got his front mount intercooler? maybe hes still got some other engine mods on it too?

 

[daedalus]

Thanks for the positive comments guys. I'll get some decent pics soon.

Jbirds's right.

I did part out a lot of the stuff on it in hopes of selling it. Decided to keep it after 8 different people said they would purchase and they all mysteriously disappeared. Its being re-modded and going to be finished. Mechanically nothing was changed. I took off and sold the wheels, hood, GT Spec stuff, and Carbon Fiber interior. Shes still running a fully built MAM block, Microtech, Perrin FMIC, GHL 3" DP, JIC Exhaust, K-Sports, and a bunch of other goodies.

I'm currently amassing new parts to continue the build. Still trying to buy back my old hood! I've got a 13" Wilwood 6 Piston BBK sitting at my feet I type (yippy)

All in good time.

It went right back in. I still haven't re-licensed it or anything so its not good to temp fate too often.

Still need to strap it back to the dyno and re-tune it. We took a whole bunch of timing and s*** out of the tune before we tried to sell it. Spikes the EGT's pretty high on the current tune.
