jeph Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 going to go over it again tomarrow to get the dings out from stiff sliding in the trunk and hitting the qp, then another thin layer of filler then block sand it should look way better, also ended up using some fiberglass filler people use on boats so should be plenty water safe. 2 Quote Link to comment

jeph Posted May 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 got some work done past few days when i was doing the 5spd swap i had to take the exhaust off and this happened.. so had to drill them out then the downpipe was crushed from the car being so low, so i got one i had laying around and blasted it at work while i had the headers off i inspected the weber, when i took the carb off i was like wouldnt it flow better if there wasnt a piece of aluminum in the middle of the adapter blocking air flow?? so i cut it out.

jeph Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 It's a pain in the dick replacing those pedals. Ask me how i know :| yeah mine had a slot for the pedal already and i thought i had the right one but it was from a truck and it dont work at all.. lol Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 all the ones i had also had the slot already. mine was a major pain in the dick pulling the automatic brake pedal out and putting in the manual one along with clutch pedal. it wasn't so much the pedals, it was the damn springs for the brake pedal lol. is yours auto? If you pull up the carpet (if it has any). there is actually stock holes in the floorboard so you can scoot your gas pedal over and it will be in the right spot! 1 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'm pretty sure i saw a couple sets at Franks when he had his yard sale,, I don't have his number but i'm sure Icehouse or DatWifey or even Tristin (god please say it isn't so) could tell you a contact number of how you could send him or a family member a text. 2 Quote Link to comment

jeph Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 i asked dillon and he said they dont have one, so looks like i may have to make one, it sucks because i sold a set 2 weeks ago to my friend casey for his 510 because i thought i had 2 sets and the other one i had was for a truck..... so guess i feel stupid for that move lol.
