Glad to see it running so well...mine is a long way off, no time to do it. Next time, put some more thought into where you do your videos/flyby's, etc., too busy and dangerous there.

[MIKe30]

looks like you were trying to wreck it on your first drive out with it.

[Luis325]

Yeah i know... we just wanted to test it. Thats right in front of my warehouse, cant really move it any further from there cause the car is not street legal...
Should be getting my trailer to haul the car around..

looks like a cool project

[e30trooper]

sounds bad ass even with the pepboys muffler

[e30polak]

Moves pretty nicely for a lil single cam. ;)

Not the best place/time to do a test run with all that traffic.

[Luis325]

LOL That muffler is long gone.... Right know it has open headers until I buy my parts for my exhaust.
Going with a 2.25 to 2.5 Y pipe after the headers with no cat then all the way to the back with a Borla 2.5 Race Muffler!!!! Should sound pretty nice!!!

[Luis325]

Still waiting @ the body shop to get the whole car repainted Zinno...
Suppoesed to be done tomorrow!!!
Hope to get some more pictures with my good camera not the cell!!!!!!

How much are you paying for a respray? I have no clue how much it is gonna cost me....

[Paukert11]

Are you running MS2??? and what diff do you have? ps, do you think your are going to go turbo?

[Luis325]

No MS, just 1.3 motronic with 173 ECU with a Jim Comforti chip.
No turbo for me.... Going with custom JE High compression Pistons 1mm overbore and i rods after i finish painting it and doing the rollcage...

How much are you paying for a respray? I have no clue how much it is gonna cost me....

Well one of my friends owns a Body shop and he is doing the respray for $500.00 but a normal respray wouls cost you between $800 up depending on where you take it...
