not bad. ^
not really at a color deciding stage tho tbh.. i guess ill figure it out when its all wrapped up in primer sitting in front of me, and i can see what its shape really dictates.

my kit strangely still hasnt shipped from stardast.. kinda wondering whats up there.

car runs... still idles high though... but no codes and no misfires anymore.. looks like any time i have issues. it will most likely be an o2 sensor lol.
The fans .. are... EVIL... its not a normal fan sound.. its more like some sort of mechanical rolling giant machine this way comes kind of noise... and thats only at low speed lol.. i cant wait to hear em on high.

my mechanic took it down the street for gas and ran into a motorcycle cop.. who apparently offered to escort him back to the shop w lights on.. while he did pulls through 4th gear lol.. crazy.

Im told the car grips like mad and the steering is retarded heavy, and thats fine. This car lives on freeways.. i just want to feel planted and safe so i can finally go ***** out in this thing and top it out JUN style.... and then fly off the road into a fireball at top speed.



I have confirmation the Stardast is in and ships out tomorrow.. same w Als gears.. and my Garage Mak wing is officially paid in full and in process. Altogether a good day today.

Question for you, is this all paid self, or are any of your sponsors covering partial/full costs for this? Or are you just going to make back after? Love the build! Will check your fan video as well.

lol.. thats not how sponsorship works at all my friend.

sponsorship is a discount on items you buy through the manufacturer.

Im going to brand ***** their gear all over FB and IG anyways.. why not enter into a contract for it and get "paid" ( discount).

They still ahve to approve you and some places are far harder than others.

so long story short..

this car is 100% self paid.
