  • Got out and enjoyed some partly cloudy weather.  Wish I had more time to mess around with the shots, but this was my favorite one out of the bunch!

    Brruuuhhhhhhhh.

  • Second full day of going at it. Had to run some errands here and there, did some more cleanup and wrestled the engine around for a little while. The cardboard came in handy since I could just slide th

Nice seats! Looks great!

Wired in new turn signal/drl sockets. Old ones were a bit on the crispy side. Found one of my 60LED switchbacks weren't working right so I have a new set on the way...

Ordered some 3" inlet, 3.5" dual outlet corsa clones, so I'm waiting on that and my holden intake :)

Tax return is coming in soon, so I will be ordering my flywheel/clutch setup within the next week or two.

Picked up shipment of my CClones (3" inlet 3.5" dual outlet) and my Holden intake manifold. Sumbuck is NASTY!

I've got plans for this one that'll come along after the manual trans swap is done.

Got these off ssclones (just google that). 3" inlet 3.5" dual outlet.

Really like the way it finishes off the catback. The guys at the exhaust shop were pretty impressed with the tips along with the low cost. They tuck up there pretty well. Not a quantifiable difference in sound, so I'm not gonna say if it helps in that area or not.

Nice and easy to clean too :)

nice ass shot :bowdown:

Not bad.

My GA's blowmaster is starting to rot away...I like how yours sounds, but dunno how it'll sound with a 60*V6.

^Probably better. 60°V6's have a bit of a better sound to them...

^Probably better. 60°V6's have a bit of a better sound to them...

Flywheel and clutch are here along with some spacers for the throwout slave.

Waiting on pressure plate and flywheel bolts to get in to my local GM dealer (Scoggin Dickey Parts Center). Should start pulling this car apart pretty soon.

i love that exhaust setup

Pulling the axles to install ARP studs and gonna install the ta performance rear end cover while I'm at it.

Also, rear end fluid should not be allowed to stew overnight in the garage in your oil catch pan. It wasn't so bad when I popped it open but once left to the air it got worse. Good thing it didn't look like chocolate milk though. I'm just doing a series of things to the car while also doing the manual trans swap.

Nice!

Powerbond SFI balancer. It's been waiting a while to go in, this was the best opportunity to do it during the swap!

Hubs are all off. Gonna take it all to my dad's shop on Saturday morning, get the ARP studs pressed in. Put it all back on and then full steam ahead on the trans swap!

This build is so awesome. Yours and 95naSTA's builds are by far my favorites to watch on here. :)

Pulled all of the carpet out of the car...Made $3.15 out of it in loose change. Previous owner had to have left their change in the little cubby hole in the console and not in the change holder where it should be. I guess that solves the odd rattles I had at times. Pulled the brake pedal assembly as well.

Ground on the block a little, but not enough as it was getting late. I have to shorten the driver side dowel on the block to clear the mal-wood adapter. Was about 1mm shy. Gonna go to harbor freight and buy a sawzal and go to town on the trans tunnel Monday night!

Debating on sending my steering rack in to turn one, mine is leaking and helping coat the bottom of my engine block and chassis in a nice, glossy film of CRAP!
