Projekt SE-RRRRRRR

[Dave]

I will, I promise. I'm getting pictures and my notes together and will put it all up soon. I'm actually in the process of doing it again right now (just started) for the fenders of my truck since I'm replacing them with a used set and some new inner fenders.

[Dave]

so, the pictures in the previous page suck hard. MUCH better pictures can be found here in the for sale ad.

as for a paint write-up, I'm doing this on the fenders for the truck and should have a much better write-up if you guys can wait a little bit. I'm going through it documenting it a little more clearly, plus the picture quality should be considerably better with the new camera. I'll be rushing a little bit (has to be on the truck before VIR) so quality may not be 100%, but I'll be a bit faster since it's a smaller space and i have a better idea of what I'm doing.

paint tutorial is up...

In reference to your poll: red paint, black rims, black emblems.

[Dave]

seriously, that was like 6 months ago :-). I finished painting it in December.

[lyltoy]

since this car is now mine i will update this every now and again when i do something new...for now i'm gonna get the exhaust fixed and thats it...as for future plans, who knows :twisted:

[ScottyB]

congrats. must feel nice to get better than 150 miles to a tank too :lol:

[WRXtranceformed]

Grats dude =) That will be a fun ongoing project.

[Dave]

Again, I hope you really enjoy it. This should serve your purposes perfectly :-).

P.S. It would be really cool to keep this thread going, as well as an MM first IIRC for a car to trade owners and maintain the same project thread.

[lyltoy]

with what little time i've had to drive it, i really love it, i can't wait to get it out on some of the back country roads and see how it handles...and eventually out to an auto-x and then some HPDE's, but that will prolly have to wait till next season, thanks again Dave

oh and the gas mileage is gonna be a big plus :lol:

[Chris]

congrats Justin! glad to see it stayed in MM.

[Nis01]

Great to hear Justin, hopefully will see you out in it soon. Some great end of the season autocrosses coming up.

[lyltoy]

slight update: fixed exhaust leak with a new pipe and gaskets (changing exhaust pipes by yourself with the car not on a lift sucks a big one), but i must say this car sounds freakin awesome with nothing after the cat :lol: if anyone in the area was asleep they were awoken quickly

next on the list is to change the outer tie-rod end and get on inspection so it can be driven :roll:

car is in the hands of a new owner

still in MM family?

sadly no, but it went to good hands, the new owner was looking for a DD that was capable of tracking...he tracks his STI, so would expect to see it out on track at some point
