Great work the car looks much better than before.

 

Thanks Mo. It is certainly an improvement.

 

Today, after 4 months of exhausting and challenging restoration process, I collected my car again
As soon as I got her from my mechanic, I took it to my detailer for undercarriage wash and protection and a quick wax for the body work.

After the undercarriage wash,











Engine after little clean up and shine,





And after a quick wash and wax, here she is again, Junior



I'll have a proper photoshoot very soon which she deserves but until then I plan to drive her as much as I can. I surely missed her very much. Without the turbo setup, the car is the NA gem it always was and with the added charm of the CF air box, she sounds incredible. I'm trying to keep her under 4K rpm's during break in. I'll have more to report on how she drives and etc once the break-in is over.

There are still very little things need adjusting which is the point of break-in procedure. To check the car in all areas. I'll make a list of things I notice and hope to take care of them during the break-in service.

Thank you all for watching and following my progress. It has been blood, sweat and tears as usual but well worth it in the end.

 

Artsy shot taken today. It is great to see her back in the garage after such a long time.

 

absolutely amazing rebuild/build! Just read it from start to finish, congrats on having her back and better than ever!!

 

Beautiful, well done.. What's next? Keeping the rims?

 

Perfect, great result!

 

Thank my friend. I am very happy with the result as well. She looks brand new now.
Thanks. I like to keep her as is right now, I really like the wheels and with the polished lips they have a different deep dish look now which I like. Besides, I couldn't go back to roadstars even If I wanted to, because of the BBK. After the break-in I will finalize the ECU tune and that's about it. Maybe in the future I could go for HID lens conversion and KW V3 setup but all these have to wait until my wallet has breath of fresh air
Thanks a lot.

 

We finally had some good weather today so I grabbed a few shots. They are nowhere pro but better than iphone shots Enjoy !



























Pro photoshoot will follow soon.

 

Mint!
