]2eDeYe Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 So a couple of my buds are doin a small bit of work on this goon. You may have seen it around here from time to time. Something wicked this way comes.... Of course, some shit has to go before it get's there. Sizing up the situation. Some parts that will stay and some that will go. The plan is for coil-overs , probably coming through the wheel wells. We'll see how that works out. :) I'll be stopping in and taking pics during the swap and offering a hand here and there so there should be some regular updates til it's driving again. Link to their shop. http://idolrides.com/ They do hydro graphics and powder coat as well as general mechanical and fab. :cool: 1 Quote Link to comment
Stupid_fast Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 If going to all that effort, why not S13 IRS ? 510 IRS is terrible compared. Sweet goon. Quote Link to comment
Logical1 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 IRS goons are awesome! Was the cutting done with a oxy torch? Looks rough for a plasma cut. If it was serious props to the torcher! Cutting upside down under a car with a oxy torch is NOT easy! What diff is going in there? Hope its a LSD :w00t: I have always liked that goon and the driver isn't too shabby ether ;) Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted September 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 If going to all that effort, why not S13 IRS ? 510 IRS is terrible compared. Sweet goon. Cost an availability. The S13 stuff requires a lot more modifications and they have the access more 510 stuff. It is one of my favorites for sure. IRS goons are awesome! Was the cutting done with a oxy torch?

Hope its a LSD :w00t: I have always liked that goon and the driver isn't too shabby ether ;) Yep torch cuts. They get lots of practice with it. :lol: Hey.

I always liked this goon ...... what front struts does she have?? ... . front camber plates or adjustable control arms? I think it has cut coils, no camber plates that I saw. I will find out the details and let you know. .I know it is getting upgraded also. :) Quote Link to comment

Ya, the hydro graphics stuff is neat. Jeff and Frank have both had their brains picked on this one as they built that white one and both are real local. ;) http://community.rat.../page__hl__doom Thanks Stephen. This is still your thread :P keep up the good work! I'll see what I can do. :lol: are those rota alexia's? I believe they are Rota Aleica's yes. Quote Link to comment
