Small update. The cars still on the trailer while I wait to finish the garage. Got a set of Pauls toe arms to replace the ones I made years ago. I plan on doing a nice refresh on the rear suspension so I might as well make it nice. The garage is almost done. Car should be going out for the cage by the end of next month. Selling my 17x8.5 RPF1s for a set of 18x9.5 RPF1’s. Just trying to fit a little more tire under the car for next season.

Turbo is in. Just have to run the water lines which is straightforward. Rear suspension is apart. Got some cool bits from Paul. Media blasted the uprights and lower control arms. Getting them ready for the POR15 treatment. Then have to make some metal repair in the rear wheel wells. The standard rot these cars get. Hopefully it goes out for the cage sooner than later.

Updates. Left front subframe bolt is spinning, so I cut open the inside of the car and can see where the captive nut is. Just have to figure out a way to open it up and reweld that bolt into place. Changing over to Pauls solid subframe bushings. Also picked up some new to me RPF1’s, 18X9.5 +15 with a set of Hoosier A7’s (toast) and a set of scuffed in A052’s. Gonna be fun squeezing 275’s under the car. Absolutely in love with how it looks. Not much else going on right now.

I’m going to go with Pauls subframe next season, so I’ll probably just clean this one up and give it a little rattle can action.
got to order it now then so he can catch up for next season for you.

also while your here now would not not be worth welding the tad on the other side for the diff support
 
I’m also planning on getting one of your front frames as well.
Would be awesome to have my frame on your car! Lets make DSM's better then everything LOL
