Here are some progress pics.....
Cool shot of my car on the lift at work, you can barely see a Nissan Skyline GTR R34 right hand drive in the background. Pretty cool rare car, that is very strange to drive!
Dropping the rearend and TH400 out....
Here are some of the electronics.....
The 106, sans turbine housing, chck out that wheel!
Wolfe Mini Tub project, I don't care to do this job again.
Madman manual rack mock up. Perfect fit.
Going to work on the motor and midplates tomorrow., I will update as it rolls along.
