Car will come with motormounts/tranny mount/exhaust for sr20det... all easily removable for BMW factory parts.

Issues:

  • Currently messy
  • Sunroof deleted, welded in new metal... kind of bumpy. Needs a proper finish.
  • Heater core removed
  • Interior paint chipping
  • No ebrake
  • Wiring has been adapted to SR20det, so you will need a BMW wiring harness to put an m-motor in it.


*disclaimer*

This is a RACE car. It will take some work to return it to a "normal" street car. The current owner has balls the size of donk rims, and does not care about carpet or heat. If you want those things, they are attainable.... but it is NOT the right car to require those in. Do NOT expect this car to be as nice as your mother's camry.

stolen from the DF blog.

proper as peanut + butter

O La!

Elllo Internet.

I'm Ethan, Mark ask me to start blogging on here a couple weeks ago.

So, here it is.

This is my car currently,




(Ya, I know it's an ugly raft. But i'm working on it ok?)

As you can see, The leaves are falling here! And I unfortunately didn't really do a lot of driving of my motor vehicle this summer. Which is a bummer but it has gotten me super amped for this coming summer.

Moving forward plans,

Over the winter I have a couple big things I wanna get done, and tonnnnnn of little shits to get done as well.

Most importantly this winter myself and mark will be crafting a gnarly bash bar / tube front end for this pig as she desperately needs one.

other shits include,

Paint
WHEELS>please someone sell me something gnarly (wide body eats wheels)
New Subframe, solid mounts and other goodies
Rad
Knuckles
and hopefully a Kit if all goes well,

Enough about me, thanks for the rant.

PEACE OUT!
