got some work done on the car. i have to move it to my new garage on saturday so it kinda has to be rolling.

i welded on stops so if the intercooler ever loosens up it cant swing down.






got the passenger side over fender mounted up and riveted. its all seam sealed just needs to be sanded with a dowel rod so the seam looks uniform down the whole rear fender.



i would have finished up the drivers side but i have some rust repair i have to do on either side of the rear wheel well. typical datson/nissan



also i started putting body panels on the car so it saves the amount **** i have to pack. excuse the penis on my windshield....



i also finally checked the clearance to the door cards since i relocated the door bars. everything clears (barely) and i can still open the windows

so its been 2 months since i updated this pig and i have to say i havent dont ****. i moved to my new new house/garage and the house has taken up all my time. i attempted to pull a bigger service down to the garage and the pipe is busted under ground about 30' from the house. So right now i am currently headed up to Alaska again for work and once i return i plan on tackling that beast and getting electric run back out to my shop. I also have to run all new conduit from the service panel out to the outlets/switches.

R/T Tuning is done with the long block its being timed in the next few days, the transmission refresh hit a small issue. Im hoping when i return from Alaska I am able to get all the crap done for the electric so i can get this thing back in motion for next years drag season.

I came across your build, started from the beginning, and have to say i'm loving your build! Can't wait to see the end result (and hopefully a youtube video as well). Keep up the good work!

just did a small mock up of everything for photos and to be insta-famous




also got the new coil packs from super spark. heard good things from the supra guys so im giving them a try


also installed half of the mazwoxs motor mount set on the long block
