92 sc400 Garnet Peril pt2
Progress is slow as usual but there's more on the way.
Integra seats installed.
Cracks started forming on both sides in front of the shock towers. After further investigation the factory spot welds were being overstressed all around the A pillar. Some of the spot welds had bulging metal around them(as the metal was trying to pull away) a couple were cracked and it was generally bad.
Had to pull everything out so that I didnt light the car on fire. The HVAC is never going back in.
This is the B pillar but the image is sideways. There were very few spot welds on this panel so I fixed that.
Painted all the bare metal and put weather sealer over any part that may ever see water.
I only did the passenger section because I didn't want the car torn down and undrivable for a ridiculous amount of time. Eventually I'll do other parts of the chassis.
Probably around 60% of a 7lb tub will go into the panels. It seems like alot but for what I'm going for, to blend the flare I needed to cover basically the entire panel. And one of the fenders was dented on the bottom so the entire underside of that fender had to be built.
Threads still going, just hasn't been much of interest to post. I'm in the process of making a spoiler but I'm still on the wall about whether or not to keep it, I'll wait till it's done to decide.
Went to a 97 sc400 diff due to its 3.2 ratio.
Car looks dope. I recommend you buy a $150 electric pressure washer at Home Depot and clean that car. I have seen construction trucks with less sand and mud on them. I don't know how you can work on that car being that dirty.
