Hate??? What for?? :-)

311 how long did it take to get from the day you ordered it? I was told 4-6 weeks.

Re: Progress since last year
 

I only said that because of the level of modification of this car, it would just be funny to see a stock radiator in there when nothing else including parts of the frame are not stock ;)

Re: Progress since last year
 

Stock radiators sometimes work great if you only drag race. Don't need much cooling, really. But what do I know? lol

Looking nice with the small bars.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Sorry I didn't get the exact same one, I got the V5 for the evo's. I think it's pretty much the same thing though, besides the fitment and such.

It only took like 1-2 weeks from when I ordered it, but they hd already been in production for a little while.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Yeah, these are basically the same thing just set up for a 1g instead of a evo. I'm hoping to get it by the beginning or 1st week in may. I want to try to get it to the first bir event to do some license passes if all goes well. What tb are you running?

Re: Progress since last year
 

I sometimes confuse envy and hate :D I just want one of those intake mani's.

Re: Progress since last year
 

I'm running the new full blown unit.

I haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet with my turbo being rebuilt, but it looks like a nice piece.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Looks nice man!!!

Re: Progress since last year

Re: Progress since last year
 

Your welcome anytime Aaron!! Found a cracked guide in my head tonight. Time to build a new head/core. :-(

Re: Progress since last year
 

Well, since my last update lost has changed. I started working part time at map in the morning before my normal job. Most of the parts will be here this week to finish up the build. 2150's Ksport coilovers, V3 update from link, plus some little stuff. I spent all weekend working on all the little stuff on the car. heres a few pictures of the progress thus far.

I spoke with Sean at Magnus Thursday last week and my v3 cast intake manifold should ship this week!! I'm planning on having it together for some test runs for proving grounds!! Lots of work left!!

Re: Progress since last year
 

Sweet. You need to go on craigslist and buy a mexican to mow your lawn or something, that's out of control.

Re: Progress since last year
 

llol, he has been preoccupied.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Lol!! Those pictures are from saturday! I got on the rider sunday and took care of it!

Re: Progress since last year
 

Well, the car is getting closer to running!! Spent the last two weekends doing the grunt work. This past weekend I installed the kiggly front clutch pack (3rd gear), welded the center diff, checked the oil pump on the trans, assembled my shortblock with a few new pieces in it to handle the higher rpm (kiggly main girdle). Depending on a few things this week it might be running in a few weeks. I don't think I'm making it to proving grounds with it this year :(

Theagnus V3 wont ship until tomorrow or friday, and my coilovers wont ship till monday. Looks like a few more weeks until its ready! No need to rush it!!
