Pulled my dejon tool smic and piping, hacked a bunch of crunched metal from the passenger wheel well, and started mocking up my new intercooler setup. Did new (proper) rear brakes the other day, only to find out my parking brake is frozen. :mad:

Drove mine in 100* weather because it has A/C :D
 
Working on painting the spoiler. Just gotta finish up the bottom. Had to pull it off and fill several knicks in it.
 
Which car were you driving ya big p***y? ;) LOL
The only one running currently, the 92 6/4 auto...WITH AIR ROFL.
My profile car is in rebuild mode finally instead of sitting under a tree. Bigger things in store....:sneaky:
It already made grown men scream....LOL
 
What I did to my DSM today. I painted the underside of the hood and wet sanded and cleaned with solvents. Tomorrow will tack cloth it and another coat or 2 of paint. I'm slowly working on getting a smooth paint job.
 
Did some more fitting on the new intercooler setup, stared at it alot trying to work out routing, got a pretty good tank design made now.

Just waiting on some fittings and time to finish it all up, need to weld up the tank, mount the heat exchanger and make a pump mount. After that just some couplers and a gm maf cable to start retuning with, then speed density and a bigger turbo.

Prolly blow the motor up in there somewhere...

Sanded and cleared my bumper today. Here is a close up of the bumper/hood. The hood isn't latched. Also cleared the bottom side of the hood and reinstalled it. I'm working on a high contrast/ unique engine bay. I'm sure it won't be everyones cup of tea.

Working on the paint again. I'm am sure you all can tell the most recently completed parts(minus polishing/cutting). I am becoming impressed with my painting skills. Not pro status but improving none the less. My biggest thing was I wasn't reducing to the correct ratio(usally not enough) which made for a very rough finish. Which required lots of wet sanding and more coats to get smooth.amazing the difference it made to take the extra minute to be sure its thin enough and to tweak the gun on some cardboard

Washed and waxed it Tuesday then back under the car cover it went. I’ll eventually drive it. I did manage to get a better set of clamps for the coolant overflow hose.

Reinstalled exhaust/heat shields, and started installing all the intercooler piping. Almost ready for a boost leak test.

Snapped this shot while under the car.

Wired up a slim line driver's side fan. Made custom brackets that are SOLID. jumpered the relay coil so both fans come on. Now, 95* ambient temps, with AC on she won't go above 206. I was running just one fan and it was fine..........until the summer heat hit. It hit my CEL trigger of 228*. That's not near enough to warp a head, but it IS way too hot. I haven't tested on the highway yet. Without ac, the max temp it would reach is now 213. I'm beyond pleased with this. Only took a few hours and Bessie is happy again
