My FD3S drag/ street project (Chevy V8)

[fass4drs]

Looks much better ..congrats...I know you said Later on for cosmetic stuff ...but updated front bumper in the works ?...coilovers installed or first drive impression as yet?

[GTR Fever]

Yup, either front bumper or install the Type-R front lip for now

Coilovers in hand but not installed due to some of the Shrader/ Schrader valves getting broken while shipping...trying to source the valves locally first, if not I'll ship them in

No first drive yet, but will definitely post updates when we get to that stage

[GTR Fever]

OK so finally some updates...trying to finish up the engine bay, getting radiator, fans, condenser.

Mount braces installed, time to clean up and paint.

As you see, clearance is tight but it all fits!

[GTR Fever]

1. Finalised the hood scoop with some nice big-headed rivets

2) Trimmed inside the scoop for better clearance

3) Belts, radiator, fans etc finalised

4) Intake cover painted

Dang son

[Richard Marshall]

Didn't someone do this kinda build before? A orange RX7 I think. Saw it a few years ago.

[GTR Fever]

Build was similar but using a smaller engine and manual.

This project was started before that one I think (2006).

[avimadvibez]

looking great so far!

[GTR Fever]

Thanks guys...patiently waiting for the first drive.

Suspension work being done now.
