Wobbie's Build

[JamesE30]

That engine bay is screaming for a cf valve cover. Going to be awesome! Love where this is headed :D

[Van Westervelt]

It scares me when people polish magnesium valve covers like that.

^why? sweet build man going to look nice with those wheels.

[wobbie]

i had to sell the wheels sadly for more money to finish the car until i can get rid of my truck, but the offset would have been a pain anyway since i have to run a 0 offset wheel plus a 15mm spacer to clear the bag since i modified the struts and made them shorter.

[ak-]

Yes, that would of been one hell of an offset lol.

[wobbie]

i would have to run like 50 mm adapters to make the rs's work which would be super sketchy

[wobbie]

finally got the motor in.


Its in now just need to wire it up

So the oil pan is on the ground air'd out ;)


The lip is higher on the driver side because i still have the spring in the rear but only on the driver side so the passenger side is lower for now.

[wobbie]

[wobbie]

Geez thats a nice build.

thanks will do, now that its in i need to start wiring it. Im missing the air temperature sensor so i need to get one of those :(

[White325is]

That thing looks like a hot mess.
Why put the engine in before painting the engine bay?
Not worried about getting in all the nooks and crannys?

[wobbie]

well im still undecided on the color and i have the firewall painted so ill be able to just cover the motor and be able to get everywhere else painted

[robsgotit]

Curious to see where this goes so far so good

[wobbie]
