Do those racks mess the paint up at all? Id like to get one for snowboarding but i just painted my roof and dont want to destroy he paint.

no there pretty sick they come with rubber pads at the bottoms so they dont scratch the paint and then the parts that clamp on the rain gutter thing come with like a tap so it doesnt scrath the gutters. ill take some close ups tomorrow.

New STEALTH Vibrant muffler. Bought from NASIOC

cant wait to put it on and actually hear something. A stock SS is very quiet, who would have thought!

Pretty similar to my bosal twin tip. Very nice. The black will look good on your car.

finally owned up and installed an auxillary fuse panel so I can stop doing my wiring in stuff gheto. everything got heat shrinking for a quality install. also installed Hella horns in the factory location for now. very load and kind o funny.

wire that attaches to the post

not a great picture but this is the 6 fuse panel. the on wire is for constant 12V and the other runs to a switch, that way I can turn it off and on. Ill run it to the ignition later.

the switch was already there when i bought the car so I just reused it

now I just have to fab up my gauge pillar and clean the wires up a little more

finallt got around to taking pictures of the Black TW interior I put in.

I love this pattern, something that would be found in old GTis, E30 Ms, etc...

And the tint job I did from autozone, 35 bucks. Not a 150 or 300 dollar job but pretty clean.

Man, that's pretty badass

Very nice Tony!

Looks good but I would get some SEM texture spray and coat it to give it the same type of texture as the OEM panels. Then spray it with SEM classic coat to match the color of your OEM trim.

I built a couple A pillar pods for speakers a few years ago using these products. Actually used 3M rocker panel texture spray but I think it's the same thing.

Kimo that looks pretty sick. yea, didnt really think it would show the difference that bad for some reason, but i was happy to finally do it. now i just need to teach myself upholstery and ill be good to go.

Danny-G · Post by **Danny-G** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 4:15 am

You still looking for body parts? I came across a pre-lift today and it looked to be the same color as you're ss. Next time you got a day off I can show you what junk yard its at.

Been busy getting her ready for a wintery trip across the country from Seattle to GA. This will be her first trip this distance andd in this environment in who knows how long. Got to make sure she good to go.

Working on restoring struts that I picked up from beatersubi, came with WRX springs so should be a nice touch. Need to get the 92-94 rear top hats.

Getting ready to purchase all new rotors and pads. Will be running )3 WRX setup up front.

Getting a Yakima, Skybox and will be doing a secret fiberglass project.

Grill project in the works as well.

Now for some pics.

SILINC3R · Post by **SILINC3R** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 10:22 pm

parts all ordered. getting installed tomorrow, looks like its going to be a long tomorrow.

beatersubi · Post by **beatersubi** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 2:23 am

Tony, you have too much time on your hands. And I'm jealous.
Struts look good! Did you get the tophats?

kimokalihi · Post by **kimokalihi** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 2:32 am

That shop looks warm. I lose all motivation for about 6 solid months while it's cold outside and thus just as cold in my garage. Nice work on the struts. Look new. I've got some STI springs I think if you want a little upgrade?

SILINC3R · Post by **SILINC3R** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 2:43 am

Yea got the top hats. I thing the WRX should be good enough untill I get coilovers. It's one of the reasons why i went aviation in the coast guard is so i could use the facilities.
