A true DSMer. Why pay for new when slightly used will do!

Sorry, pics suck, hard to take a good snap with so much crap in the garage :P

holy crap....i want a 1g now. lovin the car alot! good work!!

Looks good. On that o2 housing, did you have to open up the w/g port on the flange at all for an sort of larger piping for the tial, or was the opening big enough? And did you weld a new piece of tubing on it for the w/g? I have the same one, and would like to do the same.

Finally got the tranny out.. Center dif is junk.. woooo.. I guess on the positive side, they explains the crappy mph.

So once more money gets saved up and parts sold, will be getting a 4spider center dif. along with evo3 1st gear. I already have double syncro 2-4 ready to go in.

I just saw this thread. I'm very behind.
Nice cars and great project you have going.
Do you happen to know what the offset is that you are running with your 255/40-17?

It is a +35 offset on the 5zigens
But thanks

So what's with the piece of alum. sticking up on the catch can? Will that get bent down and used as a mount? It looks like it doesn't really serve a purpose, and would probably hit the hood the way it is now.

Lol.. yuh it's not quite finished. It's the mounting bracket. It needs bent over and drilled.

the cars are looking good!

You need to put a breather or 2 on that catchcan.

Why would it be overkill?

i dunno just seems to add unnecessary complexity to a street car.

But its your car so do whatever you like. :)

I don't know if it's setup to be a street car anymore?

She can chime in.

I'd like to be able to DD it in the summer, but yes, it is aimed more towards the track.
I'd just like to be able to take it on a trip if I really need or want to. Other then that, I drove it all this summer and put maybe 400 miles on it
