  1. We're you located? Puerto Rico or are you in the 48 states for sheet metal. NRG makes steering wheel hubs your looking for not sure for your car though.. Nice car and nice build going.
  2. Hawaiian good job, Wayno and Daniel c will help you out a lot. Truck is looking good. And if you get sick of it Dad can always use a boat anchor. Lol Get some inside and under hood shots. Rear bumper is Opala throw away that bugga. Lol
  3. hey whats up did you ever find the reflectors you were looking for.
  4. Don't you worry I'm trying something out.and its not ladies under wear.lol
  5. I'll post a picture up when I get a chance,there in long beach now on a ship waiting to be offloaded.lol
  6. Also for me if you want it clean lose the fuel filter and run a new line behind the motor along the firewall, much cleaner and won't really cost you anything. Looking good though.
  7. Wow new guy already giving me crap..just giving you ideas been there done that got the T-shirt. And trying to save you the headache,it's crappy to have to work around it. You got mocked up pull it do it clean the engine bay up and you will be much happier in the long run.
  8. Your car can go in you are fine. And people got to remember these guys are sponsored by Honda,Mazda,Toyota, so they need to keep the show in a certain direction and there was a lot of ratty cars last year. How do I know my truck was there.. It's not finished so take it easy.
  9. guys guys lets not go through his again, they did not kick everyone out are any body that I know of. My truck got imperfections to and it went in. If you got a smashed car and 3 different color panels then yea might be a problem there just trying to step there game up and there is nothing wrong with that save the smashed stuff for the local meets or get together's. there free this show people pay to go in to see its done very well and thats it. don't like don't go.
  10. Running the battery that far from the motor also requires going with a thicker battery cable also. What i did was make a nice 0 gauge positive cable to starter of course and a 0 gauge right to the frame of the truck below the bed.
  11. I would highly recommend also you do the brakes right now before swapping in the new motor. good time to install dual master cylinder and redo the lines before the motor is in and in the way. Up to you though.
  12. Wow just remember there was a lot of issues with beat up cars and trucks, but hey I hope you can make it.
  13. Looks like the rectifier is coming apart. I love my new one and now I got a spare. Good job busta..looking good.
  14. Pat did you put longer wheel studs yet or still stock, i think i still got the part number if you need it for longer wheel studs.
  15. I need a job Mr Datrod 10.00 bucks an hour under the table.
  16. Will see joel,its not sold yet but i will keep you posted. If the buyer backs out then off to paint it will go.
  17. Ray"s engineering as in Raymond Medeiros portage power engineering.lol
  18. Pat what wheels are those Volk's or ? The ones I got coming are Epsilons 15x8 black centers.
  19. Cut that battery tray out get rid of the horn mounts to if I were you. Your going to need all the room you can use. Also the factory radiator will work only thing is inlet and outlet ports are different so you will have to run hoses longer and it will look shitty in my opinion. Get the motor as far back as you can find a radiator I think the Miata one fits in there well of course with some minor mods. Also like what I did is pull the grill and cut the metal in the front of were your grill trim would go and put a pusher fan way more room and in the end way more cleaner..check out my install ad you will see, plus I have a FJ which has bigger head on it. And that's not what I ment.lol Both inlet outlet on passenger side stock is top driver and bottom passenger inlet outlet.
  20. So they don't clear with the standard hard body calipers. I got the same wheels I think coming from Japan. I guess they won't clear the will woods.
  21. There is a cool set for L series blocks in Aussie land down under. I think he wanted 1200.00 though.
