2k2s2k2 build in progress
Hello everyone. Well today I started my build. I am planning to do a shaved bay with wire tuck and eliminating the power steering, ac, and secondary air. I want to relocate the battery and the fuse box behind the passenger seat or in the trunk well not sure which...opinions are welcome. I plan on switching to ITBs (I want to see if I can connect to the hood somehow). Doing a Js racing body kit. Spoon calipers. Some sort of coil overs (not sure of brand yet). All this in a Gloss black, Matte black paint job with hints of spoon blue. I figure this may take a couple of years but we will see. I want it to be nice enough for shows, mainly but versatile enough to still autoX. I think this will make a nice looking fun car.
So Day 1...took some pictures to introduce you https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...36&oe=586736A2 https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...85&oe=589691F6 https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...37&oe=5895D6BF https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...2e&oe=58ADF1F1 https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...bf&oe=58623477 https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...62&oe=589D13E5 https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...b4&oe=5897292B Bumper off... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...b9&oe=589500E0 Fenders and hood off... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...32&oe=589EBCFB Headlights off... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...6f&oe=589F4D68 Hardtop off... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...26&oe=58613857 Trunk stripped... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...a2&oe=589181D2 Back trim out... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...04&oe=5893E1C5 Battery in trunk... https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...02&oe=58A552ED Battery behind passengers seat.

No matter what you do you will never be done lol. Good luck with the build and just make sure you build it the way you like it.

Also I found out today that my power steering is electric so I get to keep that it looks like. Never really paid much attention I guess.

_-------------------- I was thinking, why u want to pull the steering lol. Good choice. The eps gods would have never left u alone with dash lights and cels forever. |
Looks really clean to! What a nice chassis. GL.

So a little update. Got the welder now for the shaved bay, getting ready to get gas for it. So I am getting ready to pull the engine an transmission. In the mean time I started painting some stuff on the driver side front. So far I have done the caliper and the upper control arm. Eventually I want to do spoon calipers so I am hoping the color is close. So far though I think it looks pretty good. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.s2k...1186935d8.jpeg
