I thought to myself today.. "dsm tuners has been very quiet without updates from Dave" Decided to type yourame into the search and this is the first thing to show up and its bad ass! Its sad to see your old chassis junked but the new roller was definatley cheaper then getting the new cage put in the old chassis. AWESOME progress. Congrats on the baby on the way! I really want a tube front end put in my car and this looks so awesome. Im looking to do it myswelf though to save cash and weight, mine wont be as pretty if the job ever gets started. Hope to see ya at the shootout but if ya dont make it its understandable.
If your looking for a lighter driver for your car I'll GLADLY take it down the track for you.
I hope I dont see this car get parted out and it continues to get faster but if it does I already have my eye on this car like a hawk!
Thanks man! Im doing all the supports and mounts for the rad, intercooler, bumper, etc, Frontline just did the two lower tubes! Trust me this cars not getting parted out, plus the wife wont let me, I tryed! If i can get my friends to help me with sanding and the little body work, it will definitely make it to the shootout, but so far havent got any help.
Gauge cluster is awesome. How did u get the speedo gauge to work with the factory sensor?
Thanks man, you have to get the electronic speed gauge and use a 2g speed sensor, and wire it up.
Will the car have turn signals and be street driven anymore?
Things are going a little slow, busy being a dad and all! But I have some progress. The car is definitely not going to make it to the shootout, still have alot to do, have to install new brake lines all around, do all the wiring which will be custom and only what I need. The body work still needs finished, then painted, door jams and all, which takes time. I have the roof painted black so thats done, and just got the engine bay painted, now the motor can go back in, and head down to Frontline Fab to have the intercooler piping made, along with a new SS side exit exhaust!!! Then wiring and so on... Here's some photos of it coming along, should be sweet!

Hey Dave looks good. What did you paint the engine bay with? Also, regarding the autometer speedo; how are you going to get that to work with the mitsu tranny manual speedo cable?
Dave loving what you have done with the car. I first noticed it when you switched to the bat mo wheel. Are you still going to use that, or are you going with a standard wheel as I have seen mentioned I'm the thread?
