Those frontline fab braces, they make em for 2g autos? What kind of coin you gotta drop on a billet piece like that?
 
^Agreed.
I've met the previous owner and he is a great guy.
But just because someone spends a ton of money building a shell that never makes a pass or does what it is built for doesn't make it a legend. Too many people get respect for this instead of the people that actually run their cars and those that keep them running reliably.
 
They are $475. Andrew makes some nice pieces, hit him up.

Oh, that's not a bad price at ALL. Wow. yea, add another part to my list! I'm gonna break the 30,000 mark in the next few orders hahaha
Hey man, thank you. Very nice btw

This guy needs a good cleaning but for it for about 1/2 price so I can't complain.

Got a good deal on a used VIS hatch that will need painted. Wish it still looked like carbon but the weight savings is the important thing.

This car is beautiful do you have the link to the previous build I would like to read up on where it came from to where it is now. Keep up the good work.
 
If this car is the one i think it is. It was one of the main reason why i wanted to build a GSX about 7+ years ago. The attention to detail everything about it was killer and inspired me.

Im glad its back from the dead. Congrats!!!!!!

Please for the love of all things DSM, what is that paint code?
 
This car was originally a big budget build by a guy out of Texas. He did everything very nice and it was very pretty. It even won a couple of car shows but he never got any track time with the car. He finished it up then shelled the transmission and subsequently parted the car out. It was a build where no penny was spared and every bolt replaced.

I bought his fuel system then a couple weeks later he gave me a ridiculous price for the chassis, and I snatched it up. When I got it, it was bare, not even suspension.

I have replaced most of the carbon (except the hatch ) and added carbon fenders. I have about 20 hours of work left to finish the car. Motor, trans, dss driveline all need installed and i need to fab up intercooler piping and finish the harness. Plus a few minor fab things with seat mounts.

By chance do you have his original build thread link or the name? iv been searching for Richard Cayetano’s old thread and having a hard time. It someone could link me i would be very appreciative.

Thanks,
 
Life has gotten in the way but some progress has been made.

Thanks to Calan for the help!
