[treeafodo]

Impressive build so far!

[Big Zee]

loving this build!! keep it up dude! Nothing but quality stuff

[Kwolfe]

Awesome build, can't wait to see the end product.

[Tw1st3d]

sorry for no updates recently I'm in the process of getting moved into a new shop still got some more parts rolling in over the next few days though

and note to self I gotta get registered for EVD ProAM

[Tw1st3d]

I'll just leave this here.

[2muchboost]

^^^sick build.....which SPEC twin is that?

[Tw1st3d]

thanks! it's the P-trim model

[revenn]

Looks good man! Makes me want to do a JZ build

[2muchboost]

@Twisted....lmk how you like that setup. I got a custom SPEC Twin that used (2) 3 Puck clutches to reduce drivetrain shock. The setup I have was run by Sam Collier (RoadRacer4Life on SF) for some time without any issues....and that was with him running 9's all day and going to the track every other week. SPEC has definitely stepped up their product with the Wilwood Master and new design Throw Out Bearing.

Keep up the good work....subscribed.

[di-devol]

Great work Teigon, I surprised I missed your build on here haha.

[Tw1st3d]

updates of some sorts
Got the car moved into the new shop were it will remain till its running.



before moving all the tools, My Girlfriend acquired a coupe that she plans to build into a stunter. So we got her car tore apart and we'll be building it after I get my car together.

My seat finally arrived!

went a little bit fan boy on it


Then got to work. I wrote up a checklist of all the different things needing to be finished, and started plugging away at it.



Day 1 Progress motor out, suspension pulled, bay getting stripped down for paint, more dry ice in the interior... Thankful my Girlfriend puts up with it and helps me out.
We got about a month and a half to see if we can get it going by then.

[Tw1st3d]

In the process of making this adapter plate for the master that comes with the clutch kit. there is gonna be some issues getting this to work, but I'll figure it out.


So onto the good stuff, got the bay stripped even more and the interior as well, tomorrow will be sanding and masking. But we've seen those pics a million times. How about some fun stuff.



Was so excited about this part!
a few pieces of bread and she popped right now










getting the transmission prepped for Marlin parts.
picked up this r154 from a shop up here...
nothing says quality like three bolts of different lengths holding the bell housing on. Oh and the sand still in the casting of the bell...

[di-devol]

lol, where did you get the bell housing from? Maybe I can avoid that.

[Tw1st3d]

onto the good stuff
tranny getting ready for full marlin kit


This showed up from John Reed at PSI AEM PNP V2 fixed for JZ and my harness was repinned for the AEM will be using it as the boost controller aswell and have the AEM 3.5 bar MAP sensor


also I was in the process of making these bitchen stainless seat mounts then I remembered that they needed to be FIA approved for ProAM.... So if anyone is interested in some custom seat mounts I'll finish these up PM me for details.

[Tw1st3d]

Thanks for all the compliments guys it really keeps me pushing!

I'm sanding and prepping the interior for paint and we should see the motor and everything in and things getting close to getting buttoned up. Stay Tuned!

[atvrider647]

subbed! love your fab skills.

Might I ask how you got into it?

[bova17]

Woo this is awesome, i may have missed it but what welder are you using?

[Tw1st3d]

I just had a general interested in vehicles and eventually my passion grew and grew and I took more interest to how things were built. Eventually it ended me up here.

I use a few machines Dynasty 350 Synchrowave 300 a Lincoln Precision Tig 275 are a few

[pigeon]

good stuff, more tig pictures.

[Tw1st3d]

well I haven't posted in a while, I don't feel like writing some story so I'll just keep this short and post a ton of pics. I been incredibly busy working on other peoples projects its been hard to keep motivated to finish mine.
