hate when that happens. unfortunately the parts we tend to seek tend to fall into that category. FML

 

FINALLY PROGRESS....no more bs or lack of posting. My car will be out the shop this year!
We found that the inlet side turbine was messed up on my single turbo. It appeared to have been damaged by previous owner. I ended up having to order a brand new turbo to replace. Minus that set back, I have everything I need for my build.


I know I asked before but I'm stuck on what color to go with for the engine bay....I'm leaning towards gold but I'm open to suggestions. Here's a few colors I had photo shopped

 

I say if you are going with gold wheels use gold for the firewall, or fresh coat of blue on the firewall and paintmatch the engine to the wheels.

 

What shop is that?

For the firewall, I vote either same blue, or same gold as the wheels.

 

GX

Waiting on quotes for powder coating the rims : /

New turbo arrives today though

 

Old rims sold.... New rims purchased ; )

puertorican...i hold you at such high regard...please...its "wheels"

Parts are arriving

Titanium lugs for the new rims : )

 

 

titanium.......#mbn

cannot wait to see it finished, especially the turbo build

 

You and me both! It's been a long time coming lol

 

Motor is finally all put together! Crappy pic, but that was intentional. I will post once everything is back on the car.

 

Also, decided to change the paint job. Going with a new custom color. There was a Z here locally that just came out with a very similar color scheme, so it's time for a change.


This is the Z I'm talking about

 

Love that Blue! Nice choice

 

Think he is changing from blue cause of the one in pic being so similar. If i understand correctly

 

AH I see

 

GX paint her Z too? What color you thinking of painting your car? Or secret too?

 

Ya, I loved the blue, but her car is too similar. Time for a change.....custom color. Stay tuned

 

keep it going man...
