just waiting on the gears and intallation kit and im ready to put it all together.
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -
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.

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.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.
Boys and Their Toys Auto
From general automotive maintence to major service work. You name it and I'll see what I can do. Engine swaps, rebuilding, suspension, brake upgrades, etc...Current Toys: 1987 Fiero GT, 1989 Turbo Trans AM, 2003 Lancer, 1994 Civic Lx

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.

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.

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.
