Here is the color the car will be painted! Metallic Black.

The roof will stay gloss black, the hatch, hood and engine bay gloss black as well. So it going to be a 2-tone Metallic black/glossblack paint job. Going to look awsome and very stealthy!

Here's a rendering of the car, made to see how the different colors will look. Personally i really like the gloss black hood and hatch. Especially with blacked out tail and head lights. :)

I'm pretty sure the -8 AN bung on the valve cover is so the engine doesn't have so much Positive Crankcase Pressure, since it's gonna being running harder than stock it needs to free more pressure than the stock PCV can handle.
 
Yea it hooks up to an oil catch can with a breather filter on top for better crankcase ventilation, and eliminates the pcv valve. Im keeping my pcv hooked up tho. (my other car always smoked really bad when the pcv wasnt hooked up) yet some cars run fine without it.
 
Im really trying to find some type of sponsorship! Anything.

The car should be done for the 09 season, hopefully before that. I plan on competeing in all the local events at atco, Nopi, Sport compact, etc. and am going to be running the car as much as possible on the street nights when the car is completed. Its going to be an eye catcher with the black metallic paint, and all the little details on this build up.

So if theres any shops or companys big or small that want to help out and have a well build, show quality, 10 second car, represent them give me a PM.

Its hard to build a car like this alone. Buying all the parts really add up, and im going broke! Lol

looks good man i'm gonna be making my own door panels like yours. i guess you could say i'm doing a similar build in the sense that i'm trying to make it as clean as possible. blasted and powdercoated k-member,rear subframe, control arms, and all new hardware as well. keep up the good work.

Thanks, your car sounds like a nice build aswell. :)
 
Are you fabbing up a rollcage for that beast? I think it would look awesome with a rollcage and all the sheetmetal interior...people would think its a straight up racecar the second you pull up. And also do you have a machine or something that makes all those pop-rivets I think there called that are holding that sheet metal in place? I was thinking of doing a custom side exit exhaust right thru the driver's side sideskirt in front of the rear wheel and was going to fab up some sheet metal to cover it and make it look clean.

Yea im actually thinking on ordering a cage now instead of ordering the primer and paint, so i can paint the cage when i paint the car.

The car will have carpet in it, as well as the stock dash. Then all the metal in the interior will be painted gloss black, even making aluminum panels for the back of the car above the wheel wells, etc. So the interior gonna look super clean. :thumb:
 
Looking good jay. I got a clutch if you need it. I gotta come by and look at it. Trans is out of my car im trying to go real fast this season. I know you were interested in the custom tubular k on my car, we will have to talk.
