Brad's 5th DSM... - Page 5

ah, bummer hearing about the compression. Which cylinder and how low, out of curiousity?

C3L1CA · 03-19-2012

I'd like to have a motor ready to swap in a day or two if this one takes a shit someday. If I get the other motor together before this one blows, maybe I'll see how far little 2g rods can be pushed.

Trying to bring back good luck into this car...

Going to have Tim @ Powder Keg coat in wrinkle black to make it look a bit cleaner and maybe be a bit more stealthy.

Block is at Gosh and the crank/block are useable. I'll have Shane from DB order up some rods/pistons sometime soon and then figure out everything else. Should be a little bit more fun trying to push that red and maybe put some spray to it.

Brad, we need to get together sometime soon. I want to check this thing out!

**Goat Blower** · 03-22-2012

Damn, that is probably the best looking 2G I've ever seen. I'd powdercoat those RPF's the same charcoal gray as the Evo rims, that just works on that car. Looking good, a fresh motor should really rip. You know you need a stroker though.

**CornFed2.4** · 03-22-2012

I'd say powdercoat. Did you paint the center tail yet?

Thank you sir! I do want to powdercoat them a color similar to the evo wheels, I'm just cheap and can't justify spending money to mount/dis-mount new tires to powdercaot. I was really wanting to go with a stroker but this 2.0 landed in my lap for a good deal so I just went with it. Impulse decisions ftw?

Nah not yet, I want to try this weekend if I can find some time and maybe try and tint the front side markers and pull the stereo out as well.

Random picture

Looks good man!

C3L1CA · 03-23-2012

Thanks scheides! I actually had some random guy ask me the other day if this was your old car haha

95tsi · 03-23-2012

Very nice looking car! Good work!

**goodhart** · 03-23-2012

God that thing is sexy! When I move to the cities ill need a ride

**Goat Blower** · 03-23-2012

That front lip really looks good, I'll have to try one on my 1G.

C3L1CA · 03-28-2012

Thanks guys!

Finally got around to tinting the front turn signals this past weekend and giving it a good clay bar/wax. I used that back to black two stage wax and it seemed to work pretty well.

I've also have all the little stuff for the 6 bolt swapped picked up. Still need the expensive stuff like rods/pistons/new timing side stuff but im waiting a bit and still trying to find good used shit if I can haha.

Cars been pretty solid for the most part though, been daily driving it almost everyday lately.

Wish I had a cooler but this will have to do for now. If it doesn't sell this weekend (might buy my old evo) I'd like to paint the center section of the tail light black and maybe
take out the stereo. If the stereo comes out I'd like to try and dye the carpet black while it's out.
