Never thought of it to be honest.

Me three, i just haven't had a schedule that allows me to do the finishing work to the body work. Between school, work, and the girl i've got my hands full. But there is an event on the 21st that i'll be taking the car out to so after that i will go full blast towards paint.

well just FYI, works great, looks stock 100% and looks cleaner...just find and s14 chopped up harness ( all you need is the section after the injectors and on ...splics in ur stock maff and ur good to go...i did it...need to clean it up still due to lack of time...but its nicer...

[punxva]

it did great for it's first time out on track. I found out a few of it's odd problems haha to say the least, but everything is fine minus the edge of the rear bumper is a little chipped up from some tire drops.

Dude you're killing me, did this get painted yet?!

[towlie]

Word^ this thing is gonna be off the wall when painted

[punxva]

I'm sad to say it isn't i've had some family matters come up that have prevented me from actually working on it. This weekend was the first time i've messed with it in about 2 months. We should be back on track for getting it ready and painting it in the next week or two.

Going to Driftwater this weekend? Cars off the track for a while...clutch is done and I'm not wasting anymore money on this KA. I'll PM you when I do pull it out and see if you want it since you're KA-T.

[punxva]

its on the 23rd, but i'm not sure if i'm going to be driving or not, but i'll def be there with my roommate and his VQ35 rolla.

I've been driving the car and pretty much just been working on side work

[punxva]

Well since it's down time season, i decided i needed to address a few issues i've had with the car at the past few drift events. I've replaced every line on the power steering with ss braided hose and earls fittings. I've also added an inline power steering cooler to stop the fluid from boiling after long sessions. Sorry for the cell phone pics, i will have proper pictures up once i finish and coat everything.

Here's a parts list for it:
Rack HP - 14x1.5 to -6 metric adapter
Pump HP - 16x1.5 to -6 metric adapter
Rack Cooling - 14x1.5 to -6 metric adapter
-6 weld male on steel
-10 weld male on steel
-10 weld male on alum
Cooler with -6 fittings
90* -10 fitting
Straight -10 fitting
90* -6 fitting (x4)
4 ft -6 SS braided hose
2 ft -6 high pressure SS braided hose
1 ft -10 SS braided hose




High pressure line

Done minus the cooling circuit

Paint booth i'm going to use is almost setup, should be ready sometime next week.

[va240dude]

Love what you did with the ps reservoir! I won't believe you about the paint till I see it on the car lol

[punxva]

Me either haha. Got my PSM hydro in last week so i got everything welded up and installed last night. Still mocking up m y radio delete and redoing my wires under the dash to clean it up a bit. I noticed that when i installed my DCC that i had just left everything messy under there so when i took the panel off all i saw was a sea of wires. Now that everything is back in order i can throw on my new R32 BMC, and install the hydro lines and get some brakes again. I also got some new drift spares 18x10 +25 and some EBC Red Stuff pads all the way around for better bite.

Joined the Ganador club thanks Matt!!!

Car is ready to load up into the trailer for this weekends fun at Streetwise at metro in Charlotte, NC

[CamryOnBronze]

Nice Jordan, welcome to the club! lol.

[va240dude]

They look great dude, glad I could get a white pair, matches the car really well lol! I know I've said it a million times but I really can't wait to see it painted!!!!

[towlie]

Any updates?

[zooopreme]

Got excited seeing that this was bumped. Ugh.

[punxva]

as a matter of fact yes, here's the new wheels that i bought today.

[va240dude]

Dude those are freaking beautiful! Nice choice! Post specs, please.

[punxva]

18x9 +18 R disk & 18x10 O disk and they were almost local to me so shipping didn't kill me like that set i was looking at on YAJ.

[va240dude]

Yeah, totally understandable. I'm going to need your help making my 18x9.5 +12 fit up front I've heard 9s are a flush and easier to fit on stock fenders...

[punxva]

no problem the torques are sitting at 18x9.5 +12 effectively i pulled the stock metal a little

[towlie]

Shit just got real!!! Stoked for u bro

[CamryOnBronze]

Dang that's awesome dude!!

[punxva]

better photo of them they shipped today just a little update.

Also started to block the car for the final time and found a location to rent a booth so i can spray it. Changed to a different idea with the clear, throwing in some HOK Gold pearl just a touch so it doesn't overpower the red.

quit being a paint tease man

are you building a diy paint booth? if so I'd like to hear the details as I'll be doing the same shortly and would love to get ideas.

[punxva]

It got real

Cleaning up nicely (on left) still need to do the rest

[CamryOnBronze]

Man, can't wait to see this thing painted!

[punxva]

Found out that my gas tank was full of rust and sediment, which in turn clogged up my Walbro, so i kinda went over board and built a fuel cell at work, and re plumbed the entire car with -6 and also got an aeromotive stealth 340 in tank.

There are so many little things that are so whipass about this build that people need to take note of. So nice to see a trackish car of any sort that isn't half assed. Good job man. Bravo.
