old school bmw 4-lugs are 4x100, not 4x114.3

In the fall, when the snow start's, the car will go on the rotis, and get fully rebuilt with more awesome parts... RB, Cage, widebody, new frame rails, sick welding parts, sick wheels, and everything my next year's income tax return can afford...which will be around $7000

For now, I just want a fun DD and summer car...

So your plans for the red one will carry over to this one, more or less?

 

[efhondakid]

Looks good. So the CRX on the back burner?

I'm still waiting on the motor mounts...

 

[hosmer]

do you need anything for the CRX?

-besides mounts



I dont know where the hell they came from, but I found a set of brand new clear bumper lights in my garage

Lol. That's almost as bad as when I opened a box after moving to MD, only to find a bare d16 block. Almost....

shaaawwweeeet...!!!!

Thought you had a set.

 

[Airjockie]

bought a set, they are still making them.

 

[awptickes]

Yeah, they had to refine the Al first.

Its kind of scary looking too. Hope this one is in better shape when you get it on the rotissery.

The brown one is in excellent shape. There are only a couple problem areas, all of which could be completely repaired in a couple days of off and on work.


I like those tires. I wonder if they make 'em in 205/55 15

 

[phyregod]

I still think you should have snagged an aluminum welder and made a custom chassis and floor pan for the red one. That would have been sex.

 

[Airjockie]

I got the alum spoolgun, just have to get a tank of argon for it.

I used one once, and it definitly takes some practice, but the end product can look great.

 

[efhondakid]

For aluminum TIG is the way to go, too hard to control the heat with a MIG.

 

[Airjockie]

Been a slow week for the car, I've just been burned out since the meet, but the guy that showed up with the rb25 datsun wanted to see these on the car, so I tossed them on. I had to see if I could still fit 15's over the larger brakes...these still fit...but I may be trading them for something a little smaller.

Then finished wrapping the header...

Then finished hooking up the carbs...
