    My quick DD build.

    Plans are to drop it more, get nice wheels and tires, skid plate, projector beams, shadowline, ETA to I conversion, and a decent exhaust, and later on down the road a short shifter, and bbk.

    Here's what I'm starting with.

            Picked up the I engine and My new wheels and tires finally came in got them mounted up and I rolled the fenders, and painted the rear bumper, got some cool plates and installed some sport seats, I also want to do all red tails. Here's a few shots of the meat.


            Wheels are Apex arc-8's 17x8 with 245/40/17 continental extreme contact DWS






            Also if your distribitor rotor gets stripped this is a good way to get it loose, worked like a charm. I Just got done with the timing belt, water pump, valve cover, oilpan gasket, throttle body gasket, and rear main seal, shes all ready to get swapped out, I'm going to start tuesday after work because I have a date at wildwaves tomorrow! I'm planning to be back on the road friday.

                245's on the front? From that picture it looks like the fender is resting on them, any rubbing?

                  yeah 245's all around.

                  It rubbed a little, then I rolled them and now its good. It has worn out stock front struts on unknown lowering springs for now. Me and my room mate both around 230lbs went for a ride and I pushed it hard, didn't rub once..:D

                        Yeah that's because for some reason I can trick myself into thinking 4 hours of sleep a nothing is enough then I wake up and regret it then when I get off of work I stop by the lake for a swim and I'm all pumped up for a few hours.

                              Got a few updates. I have a lot of work to do and no time to do it.
                              When I was installing my new front springs/struts/strut mounts/steering rack/ ctrl arm/ ctrl arms bushings/pad sensor/brakes pads/rotors/and ss brake lines I ran into the hard line stripped to hell ( its the little nub left on the soft line) guess that jive turkey PO decided he wanted to make the next guy really mad.

                              so I cut it back to a straight part, worked a little flaring magic made connector and bam jobs done.

                              .
