Alright guys, Car is coming apart for a while. 8.8 finally going in, hydraulic throw out bearing, new manifold and exhaust piping, painting doors, hood, fenders, front bumper, installing MS sideskirts, changing the wheels, new intercooler piping ( welded ), roll cage, maybe a line lock ( just for fun ), A/C FINALLY coming back in, and a lot more goodies. Hope you guys stay tuned.

Early start today. The FD is on the lift, so I started by taking the parts that need to be painted Off the car. Lots of work to come and a lot of things to be changed to make the car better all around. I know I know, AGAIN... But I just get bored.

Ever thought about Wiggins clamps? Just to add to the Ballerness? I know you don't have an airplane (which they are most used on) but mm mm

Still scibed. I love that your IC and OC are blacked out and stealth as if no one would notice the sound of the three rotor and huge turbo
