Wow, that is really f'n cool. I have a scary almost identical dent on my car that I was wondering how I was going to fix it myself without having to pay a garage. My father-in-law has body work exp so this shouldn't be too hard to tackle on a weekend.

^ It can definitely be done over a weekend. I spent about 3 hours on it friday night after work, and about 4 hours on it saturday morning and it was done other than waiting to wetsand/buff it this weekend to prevent die back but that wont take half hour if that. Only down side is if you dont have all the materials & tools its prolly gonna be just as much if not cheaper to take it to a shop.

damn ajm nice work

jdos1 · April 13th, 2010, 06:16 PM

Near Grandfather Mountain, don't know if you've heard of it...It's a fairly small town..Home to Appalachian St. University.

Thanks greywarrior....Didnt have a clue jdos...had to google it lol got an idea now.

jdos1 · April 13th, 2010, 09:18 PM

Lol..It's a really nice, laid back area.

For those of you that like to keep up with things I just made the order(s) within the last few hours. Overall heres what ive ordered.

75mm stack racing tb

solid motor mounts

2.87 pulley

107.38 belt

midpipe gasket from lmr...Its cheaper for me to get one from the local ford dealership but I wont give them my business since being laid off from there 1.5-2 years ago......Oh well it worked out in the end...Turning at BMW now making 2x as much

both front o2 sensors...not needed but I want to be safe...about a week ago bank 1 sensor 1 threw a code for slow response cleared it and it came back today. Original sensor(s)...car is now at 85k miles...same sensor(s) it rolled off the lot with fifty six miles....If it put 56 most people think 56,000. So I figured id replace both since im not really surprised given age/miles. Which is why I bought the gasket as well.

Last night I ordered a 3.5 to 4" 90 degree elbow/reducer so I can bulid a new intake for the vortech. Looking at 4" id and just a couple inches in length. Itll be under the hood but I dont mind sucking hot air. Im kinda limited to my intake options with the fat ass jap mishimoto radiator. Also considering going with a meth kit but I doubt it.

Turbo4t is running a similar setup pulley wise...other than I have cams and he doesnt and hes pushing 12-13psi with the same pulley so results should be good. Next order of business is to get things situated wiith brooksspeed.com. Still waiting on a reply regarding business days/times, how far ahead theyre scheduled, recommended hotels, etc.

Ill keep you guys updated as it goes. All thats left other than taking a couple hours to install it all is working out a time frame with brooks speed and traveling 400mi each way. Doing body work for a living sucks but I guess it pays off one way or the other
