Well, its finally starting to look like a car. A car with no turbo, intercooler, piping, and half the interior pulled. But, eh, its a car.

So, in the recent days, i and a few of my friends have helped in get this car where it needs to be.

3 days ago- installed the ARP headstuds with molylube, pulled all the old water and oil lines. I copper sprayed the headgasket twice, and layed the head to the block. I torqued all the headstuds in proper order to 105 ft lbs. I also installed the intake manifold with new SSStuds bolts with the Magnus intake heat barrier gasket.

2 days ago- my buddy Tim came over and helped me for a little. We were able to pull the old exhuast off and cut it down to 1.5 ft sections with my other friend's (Chris) sawzaw. That thing was a lot of fun! We also were able to cut the old toe arm off and install a new rear toe arm with all new hardware. While he was having fun with that, i installed the rear brakes and suspension.

Pics from that day:

Today: I got a lot done today. Tiffany came over today for a little and helped me clean the carpet again and get that ready to go in. I installed the water pipe, fuel rail, water neck and thermostat and hooked up the heater hoses and return hose. I also installed the SS clutch line and installed all new SS socket cap bolts all around the car. All the bolts on top, the fenders, the bumper support and bumper and for the water neck and thermostat and fuel rail. They all got nice new hardware for CHEAP!

Wow, how'd I guess by the time I got to the comments section somebody was going to mention that. LOL. Not bad though...
 
LOL He picked that picture on purpose LOL... Damn nice build coming along. It looks good man
 
Damn guys, chill. Havent you seen boobs before? LOL Thanks for the comments on my car.... :eyeroll:
 
Big mistake, you should have known taking that picture would have distracted everyone from the actual project LOL :p
 
The car looks good man! I'm REALLY liking the turbo setup.

Okay, now, jumping on the bandwagon. All things aside, I noticed she had a great smile, FIRST! (I know what you're thinking..yeah..yeah..yeah..but seriously. No joke.)

I will agree, however, that those are some nice boobs! Very nice indeed!

Do you know if they're built for speed or comfort? Come on!! You old sailor you! You motor boated em' didn't you!? Yeah!! You old motor boatin' son of a bi***, you! I knew it! ROFL

But no, I actually wanted to add something that most of you missed...or just didn't say anything about yet. Slight cameltoe, anyone??? :hmm:

Ahh, I love pictures sometimes. :D
 
^WTF this guy is a character. Haha
 
^^^ See! I knew it was going to seem that way...

Yeah, SOMETIMES I can get a little goofy, but I think we all do. To make my long post short, I was pointing out her slight cameltoe. As for the whole motorboating thing....you seriously didn't catch the line??? Think man..think! It'll come to you....
 
Lol, that's funny. You've got to motorboat em!! The cameltoe, you are looking way to hard buddy to notice that! Haha
 
Yes I know, I know. If Im thinking what youre thinking, the motorboat line was a reference from Wedding Crashers, Vince Vaughn is funny as shit. If thats not what you meant, go watch it. LOL
 
JJ - :) Go watch it? I said it, didn't I?? I love that movie. Vince Vaughn IS a very funny guy, but I think Will Ferrel's Chaz Rhinehold CAN NOT be overlooked. :D

Vette - As for noticing the cameltoe, hahaha, I'm sorry. I can't help it. You guys can't tell me that when a chick wears tight spandex like that, you don't notice or try to sneak a peek...:hmm: Ha, I think that there is like an unspoken "check list" that almost every guy goes through when they scope a woman out. Everyone's is going to be in a different order and taste, but nonetheless, it takes like 10 seconds and it's top-to-bottom...BOOM!! Instant daydreams...Hahaha. You guys should know.

I'm not perverted, I swear, but if you are a guy and 100% straight, that's just gonna be in your nature. I would question it..WTF... if one of you gets all OMG..GROSS!
 
sexy motor. and agreed that picture was placed there on purpose. What was she doing again? oh yeh cleaning the carpet ;) I like to PC job is this the home kit or TRGs work?
