I am not to fond of spherical shift knobs. The primary fuction of my shifter is to keep my right hand on the wheel as much as possible. I can shift 1-4gears with my thumb still on the wheel.
The only thing i do not like about my shifter is that I still have it sitting on square aluminium tubing.

I have no clue how much the car weighs.

The dash is staying flat black so I do not get glare in my eyes.

I would like to race rally or circuit track, but for now all my car is just a distraction from the banalities of life.

 

scca autox would be most economical racing option. getting on tracks and racing is expensive hobby......

 

lookin good.. not exactly my thing, but its sure comin along.. would really like to see that thing hit the scales

 

What Eibach Springs you using?

Your car doesn't look any lower than my stock Tib?

 

If you didn't notice his tib is also like 600 lbs lighter ;P

 

you should totally get a rally scoop, even if it does mean spending a little extra on a $300 jap scoop. it'll make a huge difference in appearance. it just looks like something from cardboard. also for weight reduction you might want a fiberglass hood. if you're going to do it, go all the way!! don't get me wrong though wink1.gif

i believe he is using both B&G and eibach, not sure which is front, which is rear.

they only make ONE set of eibachs for the tib, and its the pro-kit.

and like D said, when the car is about a 1/4 ton lighter than stock, obviously its not going to sit as low.


and hkc, i've told him about the rally style scoop, but hes building the car to perform and function, not for rice or looks, so therefore, no need for a scoop.

You should come out to my side of town on a friday night. There's a 1/8 mile track about 10 miles from my place. We can race, you with weight reduction, me with nitrous. I think it would be even.

I'll only run a 50 shot.

They charge $30 and you can run your car all night long, about 4 hours. As quick as you can jump back in line. The lines aren't very long, you can easily get in 8 runs.

 

I really dig that flat black paint job!!! looks like one of those 'rat-rods' where everything doesn't have to be shiny fing02.gif

get some full non-reclining bucket seats, and if you're possesed, re-route the exit of the headers to the side of the bumpers lmao.gif
