Billyhoo 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2015 Hey guys, So... I was going to wait to make a build thread until I had some more parts for this but oh well. I need motivation anyway. Got this junk, wrecked cressida from one of SpookLovers buddys. Dude crashed it and just kinda gave up on it. Had smashed Chaser front end, cut springs, welded diff, stock 1JZ/R154 swap. Hacked up everything, but it was cheap and ran surprisingly good. My brother actually picked it up because he wanted the shifter enxtension trans and I bought the rest off of him. I had one a very long time ago and I didn't have the money to really build it then but I have always wanted to re do it.. Pretty pumped about this actually. I like fixing up junk sometimes. - So I pulled the motor did some little stuff, painted the bay, made some engine mounts because the engine fit really far forward for some reason... Did the whole X7 rack crap etc. Slow process because I have 3 project cars and they make me poor. Got a $20 chinese steering wheel on black friday for $100...

Billyhoo 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2015 Yeahh... Previous owner did that to clear the stock twins? Kinda blown.. Oh well. Maybe 4" dp will cover it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Macintosh Classic 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2015 I'll balance out with a compliment on the StormTrooper white look. I like that part of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billyhoo 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2015 So far everything I've done has come out much uglier than I envisioned. I give up its just going together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y0SH 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2015 That's usualy how things tend to go; at least for myself. I'd also like to see the black and white theme continued now that storm trooper has been mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billyhoo 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 I'm def going for the black and white theme. But probably chrome wheels. But I'm not doing shit for a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Y0SH 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2015 those are really clean and leave a lot of clearance. Nice work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rue 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2015 You get my approval. You have a swapped shit box with an in tact radiator support and show adequate fabrication capability. If you still want the Z32 brake shit let me know... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
