Joff and MrsJoff's Chaste White BorgWarner FD build

MrsJoff · 02-03-2010, 01:42 PM

Just got this in from Shine. This is actually our second one. The first one had a slight chip in it but Ken stood by his product and sent us another one. After holding this up to the back of the car, I am sure Jesse is not looking forward to putting this on the car. Seems like it is going to be very difficult.

Don't mind the posers.

Well, there is a novel idea, having a clear couch so that you can actually sit in them. If I had turned the camera up a bit you would have seen all the car body and parts all over the furniture.
We not only share great taste in cars and furniture, but also art. I LOVE Carol Griggs. We have a few of her pieces in the house.

And since we are already totally off topic, thought I would add these pics. Tim, RCCAZ1 just celebrated a birthday. I won't say how old he is (OLD!!), but I loved his cake. Whomever made it included so many details. Check it out.

Nice belt buckle Stever.

Since Jesse was not all that excited about all the girlie stuff going on in his car thread, I figured I would get it back on topic. The rest of our red stitch goodies just came in from RHDJapan today.

Here is a little sneak peak of our interior with some of the dyed plastics.

This interior is going to be so damn Sexy!!

Did RHDJapan redo the leather on your steering wheel?

The only parts from RHDJapan in that picture are the shift knob and the brake lever. The steering wheel is a new Nardi Deep Corn.

Jesse has put a lot of time into redoing all the wire harnesses. He went through the main one, I guess the engine one and with 4 pages of schematics went through every single wire and ripped out ones we did not need, replaced bad wires, redid connections if needed and then wrapped them all up with new nylon braided sheath to make them look pretty.

He also relocated the battery to the rear passenger bin. I can't believe how tiny that battery is. I'll be getting him good jumper cables for Christmas because I bet he is going to have to use them a lot with that battery.

A while back we had some different engine parts powder coated. The place did a great job. If anyone in the Phoenix area is looking for a good powder coater, I would recommend Glendale Powder Coat. Great company, fast and quality work.

Well, that is all for now. Thank you everyone for your kind words.
