Speedracr79's Build Thread

lol o well were you goin to use blue washers on the vc to finsh it off????
and did you paint the vc with spray paint???
 
ah i see no im just gonna use the ones i got from you to match the letters and yeah it was spray paint. its hi temp the stuff i used in the bay but i still want the one done by you too in red like we talked about. The rims still the green
 
Now that looks real good. Did you finish your homework? I'm going to see if I can tuck the wires we talked about so we can do it to yours as well.
 
I looked at it trying to figure out but havent done it because im not gonna relocate the battery after all.
 
Well just bought some new parts i bought the AAC bumper sag brackets and a complete MSP center console with all the pieces.
 
for the hell of it i wanna see what this car do. Neve seen ne1 mod a 1.6 like how ur doing. All in good fun right?
 
Thanks man.....and yeah its all in fun, im not expecting any record breaking performances out of it but its gonna have a little extra pep in its step for sure with the bolt ons and weight reduction mods. And handle the turns with the best of them with all my suspension mods. Plus its gonna look pretty sick IMO with all the exterior and interior apperience mods

At the end of the day its a fun project that ive enjoyed building with my friends, its almost near completion hopefully before the summer so i can enjoy all the hard, quality work weve put into it.
 
good stuff i cant wait...if things go right ill be building a BP to swap into my pro. lets c how that goes. Since its my daily no boost...str8 up na
 
Just got these in the mail today D1 extended lugs and AAC bumper sag fix just waiting on my new msp console, im working on a dash so hope to get that too then my interior will be complete.

Well got my hands on a sand blaster and a powder Coater so i sand blasted and powder coated some parts at datboibrian's yesterday. We had some snags and some trial and error, but we figured it out. In the end im happy with the final results, heres some before and after pics. Next time im gonna sand blast alot of other parts like my alternator, starter, strut bar brackets, and all my suspension braces, calipers along with my rims.
