Wow this thing is beyond clean. Looks great sir, good luck with her!

[TkrPerformance]

looks great with the lip and skirts

[turbotalon1g]

Very nice!! :borat:

Can't wait to hear the sex sounds!

[Halon]

Couple updated pics, it's officially been Frankenstein'd, how many colors can you count haha! All lips and everything mounted with the exception of the rear which I'm going to let the body shop do I think. All badges removed. All lights removed for paint. Right now plan is finish rolling the fenders, then deliver the car to the body guy next weekend for paint. Pretty happy with how the Accord spoiler turned out too.

Should look great when its finished. Where are you bringing it for paint?

Found a guy who works out of his shop at home in St. Francis. Said he removes all the pieces (bumpers, etc) for painting. Primer, base, and clear, uses PPG products. Sent me pics of his other work which looks real nice, should look like new when he is done. Said usually about a 1 week turnround time from when he gets it.

Lookin' pretty shnazzy!

[turbotalon1g]

I'm guessing the price is good too?

[Halon]

Around $2k. Considering he is going to disassemble everything, fix all dents, fill old badge holes, mount rear lip, etc and said it'll look mint when he is done, it seems like a pretty good price for all that.

[tehehodi]

Nice! Kind looks like a r33 from the rear with no tail lights.

[goodhart]

Nice, that is a real good price

[turbotalon1g]

Holy crap yes it is!

When you dropping it off?

[Halon]

Next weekend hopefully. Gotta give him a call on Wednesday to see how his schedule looks in case we have to reschedule. I have a work trip over the week of the 19th so basically I'm hoping it's done when I get back.

Wanna come with? I'll need a ride home . Either that or I'll just trailer it there.

[turbotalon1g]

Let me know what day, if my sucky work schedule doesn't get in the way then I'm down.

I had some questions about your transmission, is it a 6spd from a 350/370Z? how much did that run you?

I found a company that will adapt that transmission to any motor pretty much:
http://collinsadapters.com/index.php...es/toyota.html

I have also found reviews that the comfort of driving this transmission is above that of the good old T56/TR6060.

i can't lie, I really want to build one of these too.

[Halon]

Yep, collins is the adapter i have. He has a customer with a 2jz swapped bimmer running his trans adapter.

Nice! This thing is looking awesome. Maybe I missed it, but are you switching colors?

Should look sweet when done, good work, I like the spoiler.

We need a blaine meet this summer. Lots of people already meet at Bricks, or they did, would be nice to see you guys again once I get my POS working again.

We can do our own meet, some of those guys are crazy loud and obnoxious and not appropriate for public. (Swearing and talking about inappropriateness with kids/families around)

I like the current color, can't wait to see what it looks like all fresh.
