So, here it is the start of this project. Story is that I bought it for $500 with blown motor (that's what the owner thought), towed it home and founf out a couple things. The motor is not blown, the timing is only off! it is so off that it's causing some ticking noise and flooding the engine with gas when you start the car. It also badly needs of brake lines, somehow the lines from under the floor board got rusted and he cut the rusted part (about 9 inches long) and patched or jerry rigged it. Also has a small dent on the passenger side back fender and created a small surface rust, this is an easy fix.


Things I bought already for upgrade so far....

GT4 front bumper (comes with Headlight bracket, fog light, and reinforcement bar that the fog light also bolts up to).
Lowering Springs
KYB Struts
Interior stuff


Oh! by the way...looking for a GT4 hood. Preferably a white one.


Here some before pics....
