So ive been starting to get my shit together lately so here it goes
Bought a coupe with a CA and a bunch of motor goodies, suspension pieces and electronics for fairly cheap in sep 09
then this shit happened. fucled my qp real nice
dont have pics of the interior but i thought it was pretty cool with this big ass nardi
you can kinda see the gauges, boost controller and turbo timer in this video
ed and trucky pulled my qp out with a strap and a light pole. lol. then i stole some sides and rear slapped them on that same night.
drove around for like two months lke that then i ate shit on my way home from daves house fucking my whole shit up pretty nice in may 2010
so then the car just sat next to my house for the whole summer abandoned until some fagg broke my window and tried taking it but jokes on him this bitch wasnt goin nowherez. ahahahah. so i moved my car to my girls house
came up on this shell for mad love price with clean interior and tein tie rods
but with pretty much no suspension pieces and breaks but it was all good i would just swap all my shit over
swapped over my hawk pads, rotors, braided lines, coils, peak tension rods, random stock links, wheels and shit
then after i brought it home we pulled the motor from the red car to swap it into the black car but with my luck i broke my ps lines so while i was trying to source them lines winter hit and nothing happened until like yesterday when we pw my bay
gonna paint my bay just to get it over with asap while the motor is out then just drop the motor in and rock the fuck on
also got some things ive been buying Buddy Club Spe2
stances
new front mount kit
Nardi classic 330mm WB short hub CS quick release CS mini catch can Oem oil filter just to get free shipping
also got a welded, some slotted rear rotors and get my bucket seat reupholstered
plans are to just get it running and driving again the get a cool front bumper get a tune and drive.
thanks to pretty much the whole squad for helping me out, teaching me how to get shit done. but much love and thanks to tomy for helping out a ton on getting most of the shit done. and special thanks to dave for always being there helping me out every single time i needed the help and wasting your gas and time helping me get all these thangs done. <3

Got some work done this weekend. this car is finally starting to come together.
So after i power washed the engine bay that shit looked real gay since the previous owner painted it all bunk with patches of the bay not fully painted and some surface rust. Friday night i busted out the wire wheel and put it to work. Sprayed the rails and front lower radiator support thing with some undercoating.
Then Saturday tomy and dave came trough and we painted the rest of the bay silver. Threw on my wheels, spacers and coils too.
The end result of the bay.
Sunday morning me and Dave got back at it and threw my motor in the car, removed all my wiring from the old car and stripped it of all the things i needed from it.
Motor finally in.
Put the car back on the ground.
Still have to fuck with the wheel fitment and put on a bunch of shit on but that shouldnt take to long hopefully.

started to move on the car after just staring at it for like two months
got the red car junked
Dave came thru this past Friday and we put in my trans mount, driveshaft and exhaust.
On Sunday i had my little brother clean the interior, motor and help me spray the trunk with under coating.
Today we just put my in my headlights, radiator, intake, seats and test fitted my ic kit. which fits like shit.
only have a bunch of little shit to do like all the wiring, fluids, hook up the electronics, gauges, mount ic kit, install radiator fan, fuel pump, fix ride height/fitment, battery and hope it just starts right up. itll probably take me a month to do that shit so whatever.

Okay so update time.
this was last year or two i dont remember. its been so long
painted my wheels white
aquired a new fb and dave gave me a wang for xmas. <3
Last fall I got the car to crank for like two second and ran into some wiring issues. A short somewhere or what ever the fuck happened caused my rear ss braided brake lines to catch on fire. lol
I was pretty much done trying to figure out what was wrong with the wiring at the time so i decided to swap the entire chassis harness. I luckily found one that matched my car and thanks to Ryan for picking it up.
swaping the harness wasnt as bad as people make it seem to be since Dave helped out a ton on that. probably took me 8 hours with a ton of breaks in between.
so last week while i was swapping the harness i decided to relocate the harness that runs through the fender well and just locate it in the engine bay. here is a lil how to. i dont even think you have to remove your dash to do this.
go to the drives side fuse box under the dash and locate the white box with the 10mm bolt
loosen the bolt, disconnect the two plugs right on the side of the box and take of the white cover from the box, that way you can split the box. theres a bit more plugs which you need to disconnect but its not hard to figure that out on your own
it should unplug like this
after that just feed that huge white plug out through the hole in the fender well and pull it trough this hole so you can route it trough the bay.
next is to cut a hole in the firewall. you are gonna have to remove your clutch master and pedal so you can get some room to cut. make a cut right where the hood latch cable is at. i used a dremel to cut this out.
this is how the end result looks
just be careful not to cut too close to where the clutch master/pedal mount
after that just feed the plugs though the new hole and dont worry about rubbing through wires
I worked on my car everyday last week replacing my dash, brake lines, fitting my wheels, cutting up aero and soldering some missing plugs. that shit got me super motivated once i realized im so close to running.
i got a new lower harness in the mail yesterday. gonna put it in today and fire this bitch up for once
after that i just need to replace fluids, wire up gauges, tt, bc, bleed brakes, tires, source a vented hood, dmax roof wing, tune, and paint!!! shouldnt take long unless I spend my loot on other crap.
SMOKE SUMM!

its been two months so its update time!!
last time i ran into some more wiring issues with the engine and the new chassis harness. so this past week ive been fixing the original chassis harness using the spare one for parts and that shit worked.
also ordered a new engine harness
last night Dave came through and helped install the chassis harness along with the lower and engine harness. we tried to crank it and nothing. after 30 minutes of trying to trouble shoot i found a plug i didnt connect to the battery terminal. ahahahaha
after that the car started to crank just off the key. no more jumping the fuel pump and starter!!! sadly i had another fuel leak so we called it a night.
gonna replace that line soon and give it another shot. hopefully running by next week end and driving with the boys!!!
