Hey ben your gonna get the 2 step added by enthalpy or what???

cause last year when i got mine shipped to enthalpy and tuned if you look on their website its says that their in the process of researching the 2 step and other stuff like that.

can they do it now cause id like to know i want to get mine done as well i f they can.

and check out my buil thread i posted pics of my elites

[idahotuner]

I thought last time i checked their site that they said they could.but i wont be getting a reflash until july. or end of june. so by then it seem like he should for sure if he doesnt allready.

ok i ma heading over there now to see your pics.

[Slideways^Jordan]

yeah man I want 2step really bad for when i go to the 1/4 mile.

[idahotuner]

well iam proud of my self. i changed the rest of the bushings o nthe rear end in only 2.5 hours total compared to the 6 hours it took to do the over side.



and my suspension got here today. YAHOOO 2.5 month wait is worth ithere are the RUCAS installed.

now coilovers

and checking clearancesfinally dropping it down.

it went from beinga huge 4x4 to being a little race car. it is crazy how getting it back down to its normal height changed the whole look of the car.tomorrow i am going to take the collars out in the front so i can lower it about 3/4 and inch more then it will sit perfectsorry about sideways picsi need to adjust the rear camber still some to make them equal

and here is some other goodies i got today.My HLSDw/ brand new output shafts

anda little something i am in the middle of working on for my gauges and avc-ri will put my cd player where the glove box goes. make a custom cage for it.

No more jacks FTMFW! Looks good Ben! Your car is sechs, even without paint or primer! Great work!

[idahotuner]

and soem sweet arse pics to wrap up the night.these are my favs from tonight.i think i liek them most because i havent been able to look at my girls rear because it has been stuck in a corner. so when shes busts it out i am like DAMNthe car deffiently has the hot rod look i was going for. it is just hard to capture that look usigna picture.

we are no longer going to pull the rear fenders. we got it together and where looking at it and decided it was fine.we even got on the bumper and jumped up and down tring to get it to rub . my dad did it and i had my finger stuck between the fender and the tires and it never even touched.

so i will never have people sitting i nthe back because there will be no back seat. so there will be no rubbing unless i hit a huge pot hole then rubbing will be the least of my concerns .

[pflicht]

This one is my fav! I love it! More tomorrow??? Or actually later today?

[idahotuner]

yes there will be more i gotto fix a thread o nmy rear nuckle then i will actually drive it tomorrow around out property lol. red necking it with no wind sheild hehe

[pflicht]

hellz yeah!

[idahotuner]

took her for a little test drive today. but it was on gravel so it kinda sucked.

but she wants to go you can feel it.

[240life]

I love this thread. nice work, iam glad you decided to keep the car. I can't wait to see it painted.

[idahotuner]

thanks man.

i am gettign another huge update of more pics here.

even got to drive the car today. it was interesting. it is def a street car haha cause i was jsut on gravel and it sucked. it wanted to open up so bad but i had to hold it back.

[idahotuner]

too kthe car fora drive on our road about 1 miles total today. so i had to spray it off after i was done to get the mud off lol.

then i just took a ton of pics.bondo king lol need to finish body work asapdented my intercooler backing it out of the shop nothing major though it just pissed me off some.

ok now compared to my dads MR2, i mean next to my dads mr2and my two favorite pics of today. one of the frotn and one of the back.

[pflicht]

Hell yeah! Thats what I'm talking about! She drive well, well at least for that "mile" you drove? Any problems? Any videos?

[idahotuner]

my dad and i are going to make a sweet little video.. starts out with me talkign about it thne syaing it is the first test drive. haha it will be great.

the suspension was rough as f*** lol. but thats to be expected. i wish i could have drove here around on soem pavement.

[pflicht]

Don't worry Ben, soon you will be able to... the roads of Idaho, WILL BE YOURS!

[White Comet]

40 pages and you still take blurry pics? i thought by now youd get the hang of it. lol besiding needing a crash course in cameras, i approve

[idahotuner]

hey i am getting better at taking them lol. the ratio of blurry pics to goo pics is really low.

[240life]

That car must have been a beast. I think you might want to consider a pull in the rear fenders though. Those tires stick out kind of far. It looks bad *** any way though.

[idahotuner]

the car is a beat. it wanted to make instant power almost with the combination set up i have is built for street response and boy do i have it.

as far asa pull is concerned we thought about it, then decided not to, then thought about it again and now we have decided not to again.

the drivers side rear needs to be raised just a little bit more and the fender needs rolled on that side and the but i figure a little better clearance is better for me on a dirt road. once i get on pavement i wont have to worry about rubbing unless i hit a pot hole.

[240life]

I wasn't thinking on the lines of rubbing, more like inspection. Most states allow a certain % of your tire to extend past your fender. I'm not sure about Idaho but think you should find out from a local inspection station what the laws are. Not that the engine is legal .
