Haha. Gonna buy some parts over the winter for it. On my list are coilovers and wheels. Maybe a few cosmetic mods. Any suggestions on coilovers? Car is gonna see the track as of next year so something track oriented is what I'm looking for. Possibly around 1400-1500 cad give or take. Not too worried about how it feels on the street

Talk to track guys before u buy coil overs. Not done right they can be miserable pieces of shit.

Phenomenal work.

Hell yeah they can be. Mine snap crackle and pop worse than a bowl of rice crispies.

Forgot to post here. so the cars completely done. Drove it a few times till we got hit with a lot of snow. Been having bad luck with people hitting my cars (had a hit and run with my other car right in my driveway) so decided to keep the frs inside for the winter and bring it back out when the snows gone. Drove it to school a few days and it's pretty fun. Can't wait to mod it and race next year.

Very nice!

Excellent work! Hope to see you out there.

Little Update, starting to get the car mildly prepped for some beginner track days. Purchased something i really wanted for a while. IRP short shifter. Gonna stay on stock suspension for this year since entry level suspension is a waste of money for any serious improvement on the track. Seat time is key

Very nice work! You should be proud! Congrats on the great car!

Just wanted to say that this is a fantastic thread! Makes me wish I knew how to rebuild salvaged cars - what a great bargain!

EdBoy · 05-29-2017, 09:16 AM

nice job on the rebuild

RichardJ · 05-29-2017, 10:15 AM

Just wow, congrats man. Enjoy the car

ayyyypex · 09-26-2017, 10:14 PM

Haven't updated this in a while. Irp short shifter, sparco competition setup with quick release, modded knuckles for angle and Perrin 25mm spacers. Gonna go pbm full angle kit for next year.
