UPDATE:

so its been awhile since i put anything up about this. most of you saw it at the meet but i figured i would update my build. so far here is whats going on.

i got the car with the power steering on it. as well as all the a/c stuff hooked up but not working.

thanks to the help of aaron(hondarue) and his brother. we pulled all that off. power steering, ac, lines up to the fire wall, ect.

then pulled out the power rack and put in the manual rack.

while there i picked up a heat wrapped 4-1 pacesetter header

and some rims, no pic yet.

drocca was nice enough to put up with my crap as far as getting a welded diff from him as well.

as far as the diff and the header they are not on the car. i picked up a stock cat from drocca this past weekend. just have to get the rest of the exhaust done. thats where she stands as of now.

I believe it's a 4-2-1 but it's not important... did you get it on there yet?

I've been pissed at mine so I haven't done much to it in the last couple of weeks. I've been helping Mexellent with his because it's nice to my work be successful.

Well hell, if we are all helping each other I could use a hand getting the front coilovers on mine if anyone is feeling generous. Pulling the front strut assembly turned out to be a real PITA. The two bottom bolts kept hitting the lower arm and wouldnt come out all the way. Maybe we should just have a shop day and all help each other get things accomplished?

SEE ThATS WhAT IM SAYING!!!! lets all get together and have a "Work Day" Bring the part and tools you need to get done and we all work on a car. that way we cant complain that our car is not running right at the moment. Just throw some food and drinks and were good all day.

We used to do shop days with the subaru guys all the time. We can use my work as a spot to do the work if its easier (Euless). I have one bay we can pull into so we can work in the shade. I have a Husky mechanics toolset there and a dewalt 18v impact gun as well.
