Oh wow, I wonder if I could cut the cost down a few hundred... I'm not surprised one bit though, and I'll bet it's worth every penny. If I actually get to it before others beat me to it, I'll probably do exactly that! ;)

As much as it saddens me that you're going V6 --> I4, I'm excited to see where you take it! Weight distribution will be your friend though, so I can't blame you one bit. :P

I was wondering though, if you don't mind me asking, about how much did you invest in your front brake setup? I've been debating where I will take brakes, when I go there...
If you were to duplicate my brake setup it would take about 900-1000. You would also have to ask your friend Aaron for a set of brackets to make it all work. (I have two extra sets) :mrgreen:
Hey before you get rid of all your extras let me know and Ill drop a set off at ingleside and have some copies made up

You can cut it down a few by looking for deals, but that takes time.


Sleeper6: I'll get you a set the next time we meet up.

Congratulations on having the right amount of cylinders in your car!


What else remains to do?

LOL, not long ago I would have argued with you-but I've become convinced otherwise. :D

I've got a bunch of reassembly left, but nothing too crazy. I redid the exhaust from the black car so that it is up in place instead of 2-3 inches below the frame rails.

Also, I will also be replumbing the intercooler pipes to get clearance there.
