Had a few hours in the garage today, got out some sand paper and the drill with wire wheel disks to clean up the diff for some wrinkle black paint. Should be able to paint it today then get the grannas cover and cradle installed on the diff

After 2 hours of wirewheel and sand paper


Cleaned in a automotive parts washer first

thanks bud! Nice meeting you as well! Waiting on a bunch of parts still, once I get the majority of stuff I’ll start pickup up the pace and getting things knocked out. The Vht wrinkle paint is a pain unless you have lots of time to do it lol. I had to resand half the case again and repaint it cause half wrinkled half didn’t 🤦🏽‍♂️

Rolled her out of the garage for the first time this year 👀. Coilovers should be there this week, guess it’s time to pull the motor and rear subframe to start getting stuff ready

Had a hour in the garage tonight ! Started working on pulling the battery, HID boxes, intake and piping, harness, and radiator hoses. Should be able to drain the fluids, pull interior engine harness, and finish pulling the radiator tomorrow on my lunch break.

Got my Mazworx diff bushings and decided to throw them in during my lunch break. Threw them in the freezer for 2 days and the tapped in 80% of the way. Then used a few washers and a c clamp to finish it off. Great quality and fast shipping from Mazworx’s

Wife had the day off and was able to give me a hand pulling the hood, finally had time to yank the motor out. 324k and tan like a charm. Time to cleanup the bay, delete some holes, and tuck some wires. Might paint and shave it 😎💀

Coilovers finally came in. These are the stance signature series drag coilovers. Hit up dusty at mvp motorsports if you want a set!
