It is a 1994 project car i got as a graduation present a couple years ago. here are some random pics as i got it. I know they aren't the best pics, and yes, it looks like shit, but like every project, it has to start somewhere!

Summer 2006

17psi!

around present time:

Well, short story: Broke the pressure plate on my clutch a night before RPM and needed to swap it out. figured id also finally throw in the R154 and Auto TT rearend while im at it. between moving to a new place and going back to school, i had to spend most of the summer/fall with the car dead.

parts that went in: r154 trans, competition 4puck clutch, new pumpkin (in/out), new driveshaft.

while swapping out the rear, i found that the flange didnt line up from the driveshaft, so i had to put the old one back on. at least the bolts are broken loose for easier access in a week or so.

I still have much work to do, i was just itching to drive. so, it goes to SP racing for a custom 1 piece drive shaft fitting and a new ignition setup (ProEFI). the new rear end needs to go back in, again.

So much work, such little time... before winter.

now, does anyone else feel like they spend more time under a car, than actually driving it?

out with the old...

and in with the new!

Wow man! Nice build. Quite a bit of parts, effort and time in those shots! Well done!

 

[K0R3AN]

haha thanks man! this was a result of 7 pages of my build thread.

there is a lot of information and parts missing, so if anyone has questions, all for it. i just figured people would rather see pictures than read info.

 

[DentGuy]

All you need now is some Classics lol. Nice job man

 

[K0R3AN]
