Didn't know what he had, so I got a steal. It has its fair share of dents and dings. But I just wanted to bring Y'all up to speed on the Project. So it all started with a fluid change, Intake, and installing rear o2s. The guy before me put test pipes and dump pipes on it so it was running crazy rich. The timing was retarded to 11 degrees as well. It was also in safety mode because the knock sensor had gone hay wire. So I stole my knock sensor bypass of my 90 NA parts car. Then I got some o2s welded in. What it looked like then.Clear coat was in rough shape.
Then it was time for some upgrades. Got myself some BCRacing 8k/12k Coilovers with pillowball mounts. Got those installed over a week end. Then it was time for new steering rack bushings and MT90 Transmission oil. After a good bath and some wax this is what I had.
So I drove it like that about 5k miles. Then it was time for the next step. ordered new Adjustable Tension rods, and front and rear camber arms. Installed the tension rods, Still waiting on new wheels for the camber arms. then it was time for a Jspec Bumper! Had some front end damage I had to beat out. When all else fails, Get a bigger hammer! Replaced the fog light holder, yet again my parts car haha.
And this is what I got!
And for the Finale, I went ahead and decided I was going to try my hand at Plastidip. Sanded the flaking clear coat smooth. Sanded out some scratches, Came back with some Bondo filler on a dent and sanded it down. Primed the bare spots. And spent my whole saturday painting. Decided to go White to hide some of the flaws in the body work. And I wanted to get some black te37 replicas and knew they would look really good on white.(Getting the wheels this weekend!!!!)
And last but not least, Just got some custom 2.5 inch exhaust today. Now I'm having a blast in a car as old as me
Things coming next, Window tint,New Wheels and Tires. Then ECU upgrade, Possibly Nistune, And a boost controller.
