new build!

[william]

Yeah I'm using the photo bucket app.
I thought of using gear lube but I have a full gallon of merccon lv here for my wife's car that got totaled and I don't have any other use for it lol

Are you using the pb app? Looking good!

Yay for photobucket :p
Have you considered staying with gear lube for the winter? You can get synthetic gear lube thats about a 5w30 viscosity if you want to go that light. Then at least your staying with gear lube and not switching back and forth with additive packages that may not mix the best.

Well it's been a while I've got about 5k on the g series swap it took me to Madness and back .
I'm not loving to 20 50 bike oil in the cold mornings it's harder the shift then my last trans with gear lube.
I'll be swapping that out for some atf for the winter then to some lighter oil for autox season.
I painted it up with so "cast aluminum" by vht .
And painted to 5th gear cover with rustoleum black..
New axels from rock auto it was like 130 for both!
And a excedy clutch kit.

Put the fronts on today and a alinement.
The fronts are 12 inch springs preloaded to 11 inch (150# spring)
Rears are all the way up 10 inch 120 springs.
-3.5 camber front and - 2.2 camber rear 0 toe in front
Ride is pretty firm but handles awesome and if there like the rears they should loosen up with some miles.

Get it ready for next weekend is all that matters. If yours is not done come out to the track and ill let you drive mine around once or so.

[william]

Thanks man! I was hoping to have this thing painted by madness but I'll be happy with the g series swapped in and suspension done.
Maybe I'll have it finished by lakestiva 2017. Lol

Love the color! I still need to paint my other hook. Keep up the good work!

[william]

Painted my tow hooks the other day.

And here's one installed


I also got my front coilovers and here's how I modded them to fit the knuckles.
I used a Carbide bur and die grinder High speed low pressure.
Here's before

And after, the picture makes the top one look like it's in and up but it's not as bad as the picture makes it.


I tacked a washer on but that's not necessarily needed.
The top hole will keep the bottom up and it's not sloted in so it can't move anywhere

Thanks I haven't done much lately been dding it and it's hard to work on it as your driving it.

I agree, I never work on my cars when I am driving them. Except for tire changes, those are easy to do......
