Status of your project car...

[KA-T_240]

did you get your block and head properly decked for the cometic? Do not want more leaks

[Guest]

Depending on which stage of my project you are talking about I'm either almost done or barely started. Basically, I need a new BOV and a good tune on the dyno and I'm set w/ the current motor setup. My 2nd motor is nearly complete, just awaiting cams and a good P&P on the heads....but I really don't want to install that until I get to the next phase involves a different transmission as well as a new rear end and drive shaft...and I've barely started even thinking about that yet.

mines on going. i cant do anything that will have her down for more than a day or two so im stuck that way. system and alarm going in this week, valve train getting adjusted and gone over more than likely this week as well. plans for this spring/summer include suspension, brakes, wheels, tires, prolly just a cam instead of the mini-me for now.

well, i stripped my crx down to a bare shell. then i striped my rhd front clip. and 2 tyrs later thats about it.... hahah

mine will be done when hell freeze's over.

[ruthless351]

just waiting on the gears and intallation kit and im ready to put it all together.

[Grr]

still waiting on my fuckin steering that i ordered in january. Other than that, need to order the 9" and install, possible shorten driveshaft, some wiring for the fuel pump and sub. In front, finish assembling the engine/trans and set it in, weld the wastegate on and make a downpipe. Not much, hopefully it will be done by may.

You forgot about all the ICE!!!

**My car is stored/parked now.

Contemplating fixing ALL the petty imperfections with the Miata I/E: strut mounts, mirrors, paint imperfections, etc. Maybe doing some performance stuff as well.**

I was hoping to have my fiero done by the topper car show, but no such luck. I need about another grand in parts and with the wife not working paychecks do not go far. So I took up doing automotive work in my spare time, and advertised on craigslist. Now I am 3 weeks behind on automotive work. Everyone hit me at once with major work so now I am working a extra 30+ hours a week at my home shop fixing cars. And with the extra money now I am buying more shop equipment instead of parts for my projects.

Plus I have bought a couple more projects here and there like a bandit trans am.

mine is never done still finding the right parts for it and waiting to paint it soon.

^Boost?

[3_Series]

Project cars cost too much money.

[Joel]

in the paint booth, Suspension is in the mail, Interior is in a box, waiting for the car. Shutt auto steering wheel, pedals and shifter are in the mail. Would be boosted but I bought this damn TV...

[integra_gsr98]

I bought a house thanks to Bjornstad so my project has yet to begin. Oh and the integra is way on the side burner now. Home ownership > cars.

No, I actually decided to make the surface as rough as sandpaper.

Doosh.

Haha, this kinda sounds like my friend Matt. Has everything in the world to make a hatch or Integra run 10's in his garage. But no car to put it all into, haha.

Now he bought a house, and says he'll get the car once he has the funds again.

my project car is still my daily driver and my only car. i havent really done anything with it so far but i will be doing what i can when i can... first will be a swap... anybody that knows my car will fully understand.

[itRfan]

well i voted "barley done', considering that i just bought my car and will be buying another one here soon. So i will be deciding between the two when the time comes there are very few on here that understand what im talking about. But we will see what happens,through the summer.

[Bunique]

I got a lot of stuff I still want to do. For now I'll be happy if I can get my interior somewhat done before P10.

You mean to tell me you going to monkey with a car that already runs and drives? :icon_scratch:
