happy holidays

the car

the motor

some work









welded 2 sockets to my tension rod brackets, or whatever there called



and the rubbers on the end of the koyos fits the husky 11/16's socket good



rad sits a 1/2 inch higher, clearence on the hood is close. might have to clut some of the support out here

no modification of bumper support or anything. feels good. might get someone to weld me up some tubing to replace the crash bar for air flow. but for now this will work

my ghetto hood latch

more to come

My cousin needs to see this. At one point in time he was the biggest S12 nut ever. He's long given up on it though.

the ka swap is a great swap. i choose sohc ka due to it being 40 bux..

but it wasnt enough after about a year of the swap being done. im ready for some more power to stay sideways in 3rd gear

dohc swapped kade s12 is awesome for some road racing though, really its very fun versus the stock ca20e'

if you have questions lemme know

i just swapped one to dohc ka s12 coupe a month ago

heres pix



i apoligize for my messy style of work. i have a s*** job at autozone and im 18 years old. im taking my first automotive class and welding class at comm college to try to get my fabrication and automotive skills down. most of the stuff i do are experiements

next on my to do list is also fiberglass fenders once i get better. this is my 3rd try but not good enough
