I haven't updated for a while but I've been busy..


Front bumper is back with '93 headlights installed.  I've got new chome molding that I'm going to put on after wetsanding/buffing.

HID lights installed.  They're wired directly to the battery for as much power as possible.  I'm still working on the fogs as they are a different power level then the factory harness.

Pioneer head unit is in with gauges.  New shifter knob as well.
I installed the wideband in the driver's cubby since I really didn't want to do an A pillar mount again.
Here is my new exhuast downpipe.  I threw an extra resonator on there since there was room.
Here's my homemade exhaust on the car.  Much to my surprise it fits the first time.  It's hanging a little sideways since I have't put the front hangers on yet. 
Hopfully in two weeks it will be back on the road.  MIG welding had a learning curve but I started to get the hang of it.  The welds aren't the prettiest but should do the job.

engine back in

Fidanza flywheel installed








Competition stage 4 cluch on as well.










Engine is back in.  Also got the new bigger front mount intercooler on there

Shocks and struts back on as well.
I was up until three in the morning on Friday night dropping the engine in.  Tess had a fever so I didn't start until 9 so not too bad I guess.  I'm painting the calipers and then I can put wheels on it and take it off jackstands for the first time in like 3 months.  I still need to fab the exhaust, but other than that I'm finally getting there.
