She's coming together! Congrats on all the progress bud.
Let me get this straight though... you've put a 400+hp engine into a car, that fully ready to drive on the street, weighs about... 1700 lbs? You're my kinda gearhead haha.

thanks man! ever since my mk3 sold i've been itching to have something a bit older and running some easier to manage electronics...unlike my GTE swapped GS.
more like 350 at about 1900lbs lol....im trying to do as much as i can before winter kicks me in the ass!

Well I haven't updated this in a while but i have done some work on this car and i also have other things come by my way....
Couple of updates.
I installed the windshiled, might be permanent since the dash cover has to go on. Loving the car more and more as it resembers a car more and more...
Also i installed the driver's side bucket seat. Welded a bracket onto the stock rails so it could be adjusted and use the stock bolt holes on the bottom. The other seat is bad so i need to order another. However not bad for the seats being free!
Chugging along!
and then I bought my gf a 300zx shiro special (only 1002 made) as a xmas gift....doesnt run but i have the motor for it.
Installed a 3 gauge holder , looks about right. I wired a temp gauge, fuel level gauge and havent decided on what the third should be. I also wired up the Innovate wideband...perhaps i can find a black face for it.
The outback my mom drives got into a "hit and run" while parked! So there goes that....now im looking for a replacement one or a shell i can drop the drivetrain into...
Ugh ****ing scumbags....i wasnt there to witness it but brother was. Only got a partial plate #....well gonna have to chalk this one up..
Bought a blown motor one off ebay!
I'm almost done the swap but having trans issues which i will be addressing very soon!
