starting to get the digital dash wired in. when it gets back im gonna use the stock cluster to make some kind of template out of ABS plastic or something to mount it nicely. might just flat black the stock plastic part and recess it in if itll fit.

Painted the cage tonight with some nice heavy duty brush on stuff and im hoping 1 coat will cover it, I dont wanna climb around in that jungle gym again lol. try to get some pics up tomorrow

also i decided to get rid of the stock intake manifold and switch over to a single plane and sheetmetal elbow
thats where the car sits now. I was about tired of working on it so i dropped the car of to the local shop and they are installing the dash, the dataloger/digi dash, single plane, and tuning it.
then it comes back to me to paint the cage, install the interior and new corbeaus i picked up

I havent really kept track of it too closely. And i dont realy want to. Ive come across some really good deals on some of the parts used. id say i have close to 20k in it. to replicate it again minus some of the deals proably 30
