Middle name; Danger.

How do you pull a motor and transmission when it's missing the head/exhaust manifold and intake manifold?

I'm not sure, but I have an idea.

p.s. I do all the work by myself and I'm competely amazed I didnt killmyself today.

Too much creativity

Not enough time to be doing this though.

What do you get when you take-
25 Free God of War III posters, a s13 drift car that will be getting repainted soon,
and bored dude?

This.







Finished product tomorrow.

Empire state building

Is about as high as my car.





It's kind of cool being the only guy in the area to have any understanding of stretching tires/fitment.

If you had to name my style

Call it ninjitsu.

Did the front 5lug swap and zbrake addition to the car.
[In all honesty I'm about 75% done, still need to swap over the BMC and rebend a line]

Pulled the whole knuckle/LCA from the donor car, this made for a "Quick" swap rather than having to install 5 lug into the knuckle. BLAH.



Donor car. It's so clean, really need to make it drivable soon.


Ran into a hell of a snag on the vert. Brake line wouldn't come undone at the soft line. Due to limited mechanical knowledge, I did the only thing I could think of.
Pull the whole damn line with the knuckle and swapped over the lines from the donor car. Took so much extra time.



1 step closer to being ready for summer.



All that leaves is-
Media blast brakes
Turn rotors
Matte Red paint job
Swap rear Subframe [5lug/2waydiff]
Door bars with a twist [for ridgity, not needed for tandem in Kansas]
Seat
Gauges
More wheels and tires [ordered]
Steeringwheel setup [optional]
Wire tuck [Oh fuck]
Front Tubs[mmmm teh hawt secks]

Oh yeah, motor.

Stock KA going in. I'm planning on the SR being rebuilt and ready by midseason. [MW ASB?]

And I have to some how fit this inbetween 2 jobs and twice daily gym visits. AWESOME.
