Picked up the new turbo car...

[GenevaDirt]

Picked it up yesterday evening...of course it decided it needed to rain but held off pretty good when it counted. Brian (25horseplay) helped me get it. It is halfway home at his buddies shop.....going tomorrow to go through it and see what all I am selling off and what I am keeping. There is a car full plus more in my car of extra parts. I want to get this on the road PDQ so we will see....

2 tubs of extras in the back of my car...(same color as the turbo car)








rear discs...beam from the xr2 installed




coil overs on the xr2 struts all the way around






roll cage installed








a little nitrous anyone.....hehehehe

nope...this is a car I just bought and found out the PO has the xr2 rear beam installed in a Festy. Said that there was not much modification needed to make it fit. It will all be getting swapped over to my DD.

Ok, as long as you promise to take lots of pics both on the car and when you have it off the car . BTW how big are those tires? They look like the 195/60R15s I used to run on my CRX, kinda gives the Festy that same stance too lol.

I don't see how he says he has an XR2 rear beam on it when the rear end on an XR2 is IRS. I would like to see pics.
