I decided to make this to keep track of my progress as well as share what ive been working on with you guys. After selling my FWD that i was always having some sort of trouble making it hook. Heres a quick pic of it. I went thru a couple other cars but still had the DSM bug in me. So i decided to get an AWD. After some searching on craigslist, this is what I ended up with. The car was not running due to a bad turbo. Soon after it was home I started piecing together everything for the new turbo setup, an hx35 in a bullseye bolt on housing. Picked up some new suspension as well. Some more goodies! |

I went ahead and relocated the battery to the trunk as well. Had to spend a little extra to make sure it was NHRA legal. But well worth it. Heres some pics This is the temporary battery i will be using till i purchase a new one. As you could tell the car also desperately needs a paint job. I decided i'd give it a try. I had painted a bumper before but never a whole. I guess theres a first time for everything. Heres some progress of how thats coming along. Thats how it currently sits. Due to the limited space I have im painting it in pieces. I know its not the best way but its better than the paint job it had. Lol. Ill be updating as i make progress on it Thanks for reading. Feel free to leave comments or suggestions. |

Looking good man! Haha, I'm using the same circuit breaker for my battery relocation. What kind of paint are you using and where did you get it from? What kind of compressor are you using to spray it? |
