Thanks guys! Here's some more updates Zeo: That would be awesome but so much $$$$ I doubt anyone would pay that kind of money
Here's some progress from tonight... made the angled throttle body neck from a flat piece of aluminum. All welded up..
Looking good. You may have already mentioned but what colour if any are you going to paint the plenum?
Here's the VH45 intake manifold I am building for Team Japspeed over in the UK. My intake will probably end up looking very similar to this.
Some more progress pics: Beads are getting nicer and nicer. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! It's starting to pay off!
Thanks! We are still working on fitting the body panels.. it's so time consuming, especially when the driverside skirt doesnt fit! You can't really see it in the picture, but the skirt protrudes out into the door opening about 6mm. We need to cut it to fit, the piece of yellow tape marks where it should end.
Me too! Had some issues with the Twinz bumper not fitting perfectly, but got that straightened out. The fender flares are being a pain as well, trying to make them blend into the car so they don't look glued on is a PITA! Intake is all done! Shipping out on Friday! I'll put some more pictures up once Japspeed installs it, and gets some dyno numbers! So excited. Rumor has it that they will be going with a polished finish on the manifold
Hey guys! Sorry it's been awhile! Getting married next month, and bought a house back in July. I've been working mainly on the house. The garage will have to wait for a little while. Updates so far. Body work is coming along, no rush since I'm not ready for it at my new place. The TBO sideskirts didn't have that great of fitment and needed to be modified for perfect fitment. Antenna hole welded closed and roughly smoothed over. Passenger side is all done! Next is the driver side quarter and hatch/spoiler.
You got that right! No need to rush No, I'm terrible with body work! One of my best friends is a body work wizard! I can't wait to see the finished product! I help with some of the basic stuff, but I'm lost without his help lol
Okay everyone! The moment I've been waiting for!!! Little teaser shot of the paint. I fell in love with this color when I saw it in person last year at Cruisin' OCMD. Any guesses!?
UMMM is it Green !? First can I thought puss, second can I thought syphilis, is it "Vintage Cock Rot Green" ?
Sounds like you a circling around 'gangrene' It is a very bright green and one of those colours that will stand out in the crowd of boring. His car, his colour But I've seen it on a friend's evo, so it doesn't work for me. His finished product might restore the cred of that colour, let's see.
is it the green from the limited edition ford focus st? (do you even get that car over there?) https://www.google.com.au/search?q=...a=X&ei=ZWC4VL7EF8z08QWj9oHoCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ
Yeah, it's the "Gotta Have it Green" that Ford uses on the Mustangs. They don't use it on the Focus over here, but yes we get them. Here's some more updates, the fenders, hood, and sides are in primer. The doors are mounted on the new hinges. Took the front suspension off again to prep and repaint the engine bay.
