More to come
I wanted to start the full interior restoration and get that done before I worked my way to the exterior things but my shocks are going so I decided to focus on Stance and drive ability instead of waiting til the winter was over. Once I do that I'll finish the interior with racing seats and harnesses. I figured I could slide all winter and practice on the new setup and get a better idea of the new things that come with being lowered and fatter wheels. I won't really slide on dry ground until I get a LSD w/ solid bushings and a lighter driveshaft. I believe in footwork first before performance. Full suspension upgrade. I'm working from back to front. After that stage I'll begin the NA-t phase from bottom to top. Lighter flywheel and performance clutch, bearings, metal head gasket and ARP studs to handle the boost before it comes. Then a AEM V2
After all those are secure I'll get the CxRacing kit for the NA 2J and maybe 272 cams....aiming for 350hp on the street to 500hp for the track... I live about an hour from Englishtown NJ so I'll be hitting Clubloose and the East Coast Bash where Drift Alliance reign right now...

Suggestion.....shave all your badges, black out the silver trim and get one gold package "L" for the rear to tie the gold rivets in.
I shaved my gold badges and you can have them if I can find them and you want them. I no longer have any gold on the car so that plan is over.
They will look great if you loose all the chrome.

You must be reading my thoughts.. I was looking up lastnight about blacking out the chrome trim... I would have to go gold badges in order to blend. Its a good look... my theme
