EDIT: I started this thread X-mas break 06-07 while attending the Naval Academy Preparatory School. Now I am about to leave for the Coast Guard Academy and will be going through an officer indoctrination. therefore no 6gc until September and no driving the celi until 2010ish..... anywho i'm going to keep updating this thread when possibly i am home for a holiday and work on the car etc.!! wish me luck.




(original)

So i'm home for Christmas break and its time to work on my car. The swap is sooo close to being complete and i'm hoping to transfer my plates over soon so she is on the road. Right now she is sitting on the lift at my friends garage and i have been working on her everyday.




[b]December 21st:

-Replaced an axle seal
-welded the stock exhaust to match up with the 3sgte
-fixed some issues with the door lock
-got the power steering running
-removed the rear wiper and antenna
-installed the kirkasaurus polyurethane inserts




December 22nd:
-welded the holes where the wiper and antenna were
-bondo'ed the holes as well as some other body work areas
-painted the hub on a front rotor
-and painted the caliper red
-painted my gt-four riser blocks
-debadged (still glue on there though...



For the rest of the break i plan on:
-finishing the body work
-installing riser blocks and spoiler DONE!
-installing 6.5 front components DONE!
-making custom clear turns
-installing all of the interior panels that are currently out... DONE!
-installing three DCW gauge pods (triple, single and shift boot) DONE!
-installing 6 prosport gagues (oil pres, fuel pres, boost/vacuum,water temp, exhaust temp, volt)DONE
-Moving battery to boot DONE!
-installing alpine head unit DONE!
-put my rims on there DONE!
-Install custom intake pipe DONE!
-MAKE HOOD CLOSE DONE!
-and soooooo much more i can't remember off the top of my head!




here are some progress pics:



^ On my friends lift






^ The daily driver waiting patiently outside smile.gif smile.gif (those are the rims that will be on the black car soon)

















^ Some stuff waiting to go in!

ART intake
XS Down Pipe
Magnaflow 3in spun cat, muffler, resonator
DCW pod (triple)
Subs
And down the bottom there are some intercooler pipes from Jgreenings old set-up (Spearco is on its way!!!!)
(and in the back is my Gibson smile.gif )

Thank you Romas!!!!!

Yea i love the pod's and guages, but the prosports are hard to read during the day. otherwise they are amazing. I think i like the shift boot pod the best smile.gif

I was going to paint it silver, but didn't want to paint over your work quite yet biggrin.gif
