I was going to ask the same thing!  Also, I noticed from your "before" pics that all the damage to the bodywork must've buffed right out.  Good buffing job!

There was a whole lot of "buffing" done. I replaced the front fenders though.

The roads are paved....just half covered in snow though.

I've been busy with the car already. New ic pipes are made, new throttle body installed, COP setup is wired up, cage has been pre-fitted and the battery relocation is almost done. Damn battery relocation ended up costing a fortune.

Next week I'll be adding an extra fuel pump and possibly an external sump. I'll finish up the driveline after that. Damn carrier bearings dont like their life anymore.

Here's a few vids I took of the car right before I parked it as well. 14b's suck.

It's a '91 running on DSMlink.

Called in sick for work today and low and behold the damn turbo setup showed up in the mail. Caught myself mocking everything up with the flu,lol.  

Turbo setup is a Forced Performance 3575 with a modified compressor housing(and polished), FP 3" V-band O2 housing, Tial 44mm V-band wastegate, FP dump pipe, FP feed and return lines /w filter, FP 4" intake.

Loosing sleep already. Might post pics in a bit.

Thank you.

Is it just me or did I mention Forced Performance too many times in that last post? Its amazing that you have to call a vendor in the States to get good service. Just thought I'd add that. :wink:


Forced Performance....lol
