This is new car.

Say hello to new car. It has rust, I dont care.
The brakes hadnt worked in forever. Changed master cylinder and Booster and bled them and brought it home.

Took it into the garage and put on coilovers, spacers, hood and Mirrors one night.

Looked like this next morning.

Put in a Mooneyes wheel, knob, broadway mirror and some other shit inside the mint interior.


Some days later. I started my 5 lug swap.

This was the result. Those are 50mm spacers on there.

Changed tie rods also because old ones were fucked.


I dont have money for fancy links right now. Thatll have to wait till summer.



Thats the front wheel fitment with the spacers. Its 17x9+22 with a 50mm spacer. Theres a reason for that.


Another shot. Extreme, will never work, whatever.

Started the Harness tuck.
Harness before.


Harness after.




Was gonna relocate it to the engine using a firewall hole but im tired of working on cars so I took the easy way. It was cold.

THen i put the front overfenders and stuff on.

All the aero is from Works Aero and you should buy stuff from them.
The fenders are D-max D1 style, Aero is Uras style.
Then i drove it around then the brakes went out again and i almost totaled it.
I hate cars. Cant wait to finish it.

Theres a ton of shit left to put on and do. Stay tuned.

I wish! I still have so much shit to do.
These fucking brakes are kicking my ass. They wont build pressure for shit. No matter what i change or how much i fucking bleed them. I wanna burn the car down already.

I still have to cut my rear quarters, install rear overs, convert rear to 5 lug, install headlights and taillights, get seat, get the car painted, get a diff, blah blah fucking blah.

Garage is always freezing fucking cold and I hate working on the car by myself.

This is supposed to be fun.

Nah nah nah.
Its like a BIG problem.
Ive removed that line and booster assembly twice already.


OK. Lets talk about it then.

I changed the master cylinder because the pedal would build no pressure and such. Whatever, put it back on, bled the brakes, no pressure. Fluid all went away, but there was no visible leak or fluid on the floor. Decided to change out the booster, upon removal of old one(most tedious fucking shit in the world) i realized the vaccum line and entire fucking booster were FILLED with brake fluid. LIKE Quarts of that shit in there. THat also means in some freak fucking incident my engine was getting brake fluid into the intake. Whatever. Put a new booster in it and bled it real good. PERFECT brakes were working like a new fucking car and pedal pressure was spot on. It drove and braked perfectly for a week and one day lost all of its pressure in a half hour. Now it has ZERO pressure again. All my fluid is gone again and i fear that my booster will have it all inside again.

This shit never happens to other people.
