xaero_81's B6T/G25MR Build Thread

[xaero_81]

Got a few things done this weekend. Painted my bay black.







Also snagged some Bride seats. Just needed a good cleaning.



And just a fun picture..



Got my wiring semi organized and wrapped. Also mocked up my trans mounts to take to work and weld. Will post pics once welded.

REALLY nice build man! Cant wait to see some more updates!`

[xaero_81]

I'd like to have my transmission in the car for a while too. :-)

[bhazard]

And your point is?

That's for a stock grenade trans.

Hey - see if you can make a double set of mounts when you make them. I'll work on mass producing them.

Really diggin' the blue lol

fms sells b6t swap mounts for the stock fest trans.. made installation a breeze for me..

[xaero_81]

I'd like to at least make a jig for the appropriate mounting locations. I would have a hard time making two separate sets because I'd need two sets of each mount.

Got the b3 pulled today and cleaned up the bay. Only took 2 hours by myself. Got a plan for my mounts, just have to find time at work to weld them up.









Motor may be for sale pending whether or not Crazyrog17 needs it. Trans will be a backup for green car.

An Update! Still coming along slow and steady. Had a delay due to preparations for my Green 92 to make it safely to Ohiostiva.

Green car received a fully rebuilt aspire swap (with lame steelies and hub caps for now), my custom grill, hatch cover, hatch light with latch (no blue wire in L hatch ), intermittent wiper switch, and new red tape to cover hole where an antenna should be!





Still need to:
Bumper Restore
Paint under headlight area to match grill
Paint and install spoiler
Install split fold backseat

Blue 93

Installed Camber bolts

Motor about all the way back together.







Misc.


Brad modeling.









Will likely start removing Aspire B3 next weekend as long as time permits. Going on vacation to Tennessee for a week starting on the 12th so I'd like to get that out.

I have the same wheel. Make sure that it is straight when you turn it. I mean that it keeps an equal distance from the wiper stalk. I had to tweak mine some.

[crazyrog17]

Oops?

[xaero_81]

Oops...

[xaero_81]

Is the material meant to edge over the metal like that?

For $30, yes. But it feels really nice.

Thanks for the fuses Zack!

[crazyrog17]

Looks good, dude! I like those cartridge fuses ;D
