Ugggh, so I haven't driven this thing since the September demo at Coronado....and it looks haggard as fuck; I'm sick of it just sitting in my driveway, tarped and rotting away. So, I'm going to make it look good again.

With my priorities right now, taking it to the track really isn't one....so, I'd like to be able to drive it every now and then to maybe get a burrito or drive it downtown. I'm sick of it being loud (even though it generates a boner everytime), I hate the sportcrap wheels, busted aero and the general garbage look to it.

The white Work XD-9s will be going back on, fresh aero, fresh paint, some nice Thrush turbo mufflers will be going on, and I'll be fixing the general appearance. I'm also having my buddy build a MegaSquirt for it so I don't have to run on the standalone Accel DFI that I'm currently running (MS DOS based...for real). Oh, and for guys who said the hole in my hood looks like a pile of dog shit, I ordered a nice smooth cowl from Summit to cover it up.

Of course, I'm going to be cutting it down so it's not giant.

For anyone who wants to see the original caging & build photos:

So here's how the car used to look, right after I finished it...




And here's how it looks now after almost a year of thrashing (just picked up the aero). This seriously gives me headaches...





I guess I'll keep posting up to make this car look better than it has ever looked.

CJ, pretty awful huh? I'm glad it's been sitting under a cover for the past 5 months. Had to uncover it to mount the nasty green aero. Once I finish the hood, it will be painted, new wheels....ugh I'm dying to get this thing looking good again.

Good times man, lookin forward to seein it back all purdy.  Also, Megasquirt sucks. biggrin

The MS will be an vast improvement to what I have now, and it's simple, for the simple motor that I have.

If I'm ever back on forza just sell me a vw for millions again.

Wheels are now on the way, the hood cowl will be here tomorrow to start fabbing up, and I have my paint. I just need to run to the paint shop to grab some desiccates so I can spray; maybe a slower thinner as well, seeing as it's going to be warmer in CA. I'll also be picking up some turn signals and side markers soon.

Just got some goods in, hopefully two of these will keep the 302 quiet enough. I'm probably going to grab some turn-downs as well.







Also a few things for the coolant system.

I will when i have the funding to; it's just on hold for a little while....I have this whole AF pilot training to get through first. UPT will probably be in Texas for me, and I want to drive it out there.

You took a year+ break....we never thought you'd come back.
