There's really no need for me to pull everything out of those boxes to prove anything. I can't attempt the install just yet. I have to get my headgaskets replaced now before attempting to do so. This is going to be a timely project, so don't expect any answers till around late September.
boost ftw!

Just ordered the small misc stuff needed for the head gasket job. That'll be this upcoming weekend. The following weekend I'll have another dyno run and do a compression test and leak down test. If all of that turns out to be a thumbs up, then the week after that I'll start on the turbo kit to confirm the predicted issues I'll have and go from there.

FINALLY got a hold of the guy that's going to do my headgaskets for me while I'm out in Cali this and next week. I drop her off tomorrow during lunch. Hopefully he can have everything I want done by the time I fly back mid next week. Which would allow me to do a compression test that weekend, and if all looks good, then attempt the turbo kit install that same weekend. Woot!

Btw, the lady at Uhual was a bitch! Over the phone it sounded like she didn't want me to come over to pick up a trailor. I showed up anyways. It was 15 minutes before they closed. I can give a rats ass how tired you are. If you're open, at least give it an effort to give a damn and give me a fucking smile. From now on I'll be giving my business to the guys over at Ranoke. They are very friendly and even let me slide when I turned in the trailor late once. Anyways, have my trailor! Woot!

Its not street legal cuz he has lexan (or some other material) windows for the racetrack. Once you get rid of your glass windshield its not street legal. He did a full tranny swap to a CL-S 6 speed to go with the 3.5 liter j series motor he has. The paint is clear coated, and the fender flares are custom.
And yes, we all love his car because as you can clearly see, its awesome lol.

You can also use wood to get a lower car on to a trailor.
Today sucked cause I ran out of gas loading the car on to the trailor, lol. Then I had to go buy a car cover since it was raining and I don't have any door windows. I got soaking wet having to get on the floor under to trailor to strap the cover on. I was 2 1/2 hours late to work because of all the small things that happened. Also took off the Emotions and put the stockies back on.

hmm well unfortunately up here having a cage is illegal on the road regardless of what sort of material ur windows r made out of!
thats why it makes it that much more difficult to plan to track your car since u would have to tow it to track sometimes 600 kms away..
cocoa do u track ur car ?

Craziness, taking off the bumper is a good idea, though not practical, especially after i get it painted. For the wood, you talkin about makin better ramps?
