Build looks awesome Phil. Can't wait to see the finished result.

Can't wait to see the results after BDC tunes it ;)

Will you run a HC methadone injection set up ?

You know its the way of the future, just make sure you remove those mixers on the injectors, I hear they can fuck you motor :Chevy_anim:

Great build BTW :bowdown:

LMAO!!!! You know me... I'm a masochist and a complete moron.. which means, I'll let Brian Dumbass Cain to tune it :)

Naw... I'm going E85 :)


January 27th, 2012 - Not much update... I got my new tires the other day and just dropped them off this morning to get it mounted. There is only one place in Bham, AL that I would let people touch new wheels... and only because they have the right machine to do so... Corgi Artiglio Master and Hunter load balancer. This shop also uses special weight for your wheels.. expensive, but worth it!

Wheel Spec: The New WORK CR Ultimate 18x9.5 Front and 18x10.5 Rear

Just outta curiosity, if you don't mind, what do you do for a living? Lol.

Car looks absolutely sick man.

He kidnaps children and sells them on the black market, producing outrageous returns on his effort, thus allowing for such large amounts of money to be spent on 7's....

lol

J.

He is working on the next manned flight to the moon for NASA.

He invented the wheel. So he gets massive royalty checks from all over the world.

Phil... is that the Amemiya nose, and where did you get it? Is Shine making that one??

LOL! I'm a middle class man that do not drink, smoke, and spends all the spare cash on rotary cars... You should see how much I money I saved when I stopped drinking and smoking and going out :)

RCCAZ, its RE-A nose and Ken wants to make it but now its hacked in pieces :) about 3 months the body and all should be done.

February 12th, 2012 - Not much update as I been spending my spare time trying to get my old house in order and put it back on the market. Some idiot kicked down my door to the garage and I had to get that fixed and been painting the interior to update the house a bit... This housing market is killing me and I need to sell this so I can dump it in to this project.

Anyhow, Only car thing I did since last update...

Put these Mazda posters I had (for about 7 years) in my garage..

And got my spoilerless hatch painted MB and mounted (pics later).

Those are my favorite posters... some of the new dealerships are still using them...

Wait, someone kicked down your door? WTF is up with that?! Were they trying to steal something or what?

Yeah... they kicked my old house garage back door... The house is empty.. but my friend thinks they were trying to scope out to steal copper or something.. Anyhow, all is fixed and hope it sells soon..

more update.. or even less update..

February 16, 2012 - Not much update as I'm currently waiting on parts to finish the V mount set up and such..
