***6 New Videos.... post #55*****

*2 videos at end of the 1st post*
I decided to start a build thread for my car. I expect to have everything finished by the end of the year, or january at latest.
I'll post a pic of my car as it use to look, and how it looks now.

This is my plan for the car
Get car properly tuned
redo intercooler piping and unit
install new bushings, rear bbk, suspension accessories
paint entire car and install new bumpers
redo interior,
redo stereo in trunk
wheels
(not in that particular order)

I will post pics as I go.

So far my car has had the following done/installed
Tein cs coilovers
Dynaudio speakers all around with rf 360.2 and 3 ppi amps in trunk
led tails
ugo roof spoiler
jp spoiler (unfortunately a rep)
vaistech unit
lux link sens-o-shock and remote start unit
Rmm supercharger
haltech interceptor unit
ppe headers
Tanabe medallion touring exhaust with new high flow cats custom piping and 3rd cat delete
I have installed everything except the coilovers myself.

Hereare the pics

The way it looked





then



now



engine work



parts sitting around







Here is one just so you guys can hear the bov and exhaust
I was going up hill and recorded this on my crappy blackberry. I wasn't trying to mash it just wanted you guys to hear the bov. I'll wait for the tune before I make some good videos.

I had wheelspin right away so I had to let off the gas to grip. Also I didn't power brake at all. just stepped on the gas. Correct me if i'm wrong, but i went over the video on my video editing program and the speedo starts to move at 1.65 seconds, and i hit 60 at 6.49 seconds = 4.84 0-60
Maybe someone else can double check that for me. Either way its a fast 0-60 for having had so much wheel spin and letting of the gas in between shifts. Here ya go!!!

Is this the end result of the parking garage build lol... Now your going under the knife again? Lots of parts there... Keep us posted..

 

Very nice car looks good.... With all those parts laying aroung and you want to sell them i know you'll make money of them some of the members here would love your extra parts.

Yes the supercharger was installed in a parking garage!!! But its working perfectly now. No cel, car idles like stock and pulls strong. And thats without a proper tune.

Thanks!! and yes most of those parts will be put on my gs. I bought excess parts just so I have options while building my car. Once the car is painted, i will sell any extra bumpers, hoods, parts. I also have a TON of stereo equipment that I will sell. Unopened speakers, amps etc... and custom sub boxes with subs for the gs. (I have swapped my stereo a few times now)
I'll keep everyone updated!!!

 

dam no WOT video?

 

looks clean nice work

 

Very nice!!

 

Another impressive build thread. Let's get some more vids real soon.

 

Love boost. Car looks great....Please do me a huge favor. clean up the ragu spaghetti between the headlight and the ecu box. will make it look 10x cleaner

 

It's coming after my tune.

Thank you. It's getting there.

Thanks, and more vids will be posted soon.

Thanks, and I should have explained. The "spaghetti" is only there temporarily. The haltech will be mounted in the glove box. That is why the wiring is all bunched in there for now, they are wire extensions from the haltech to the ecu. It took me a while to figure out the wiring, and since then I've just kept it all there til I have the time to run the wires to the glovebox. I will also be doing a full repaint soon including pulling the engine, so once that happens I will also do a full wiretuck to keep the engine bay looking nice and clean.

 

Looking forwa to see the ending results...looks good so far

 

yea love the progress. can't wait to see more

 

That is super awesome! Are you planning to build the motor?

suggestion: before painting, do some fender roll, cut, stretch(pull)... you will need it.

 

Nice! Look forward to seeing it completed

 

A Looooong time coming, but you came a loooong way since we first talked like what, 2 years ago ??



Too bad we didn't meet up at The Pursuit, but I expect you me and Vince to rep the SC GS crew next year.
