    Default So, What are Your Winter Car Plans?

    Like the title says, what are you planning on doing this winter with your car? I will start. I plan on putting a cage in the Teg, doing a sunroof delete, and possibly a bigger turbo. That hyrbid 50 trim is about maxed out. I may try to build a SFWD for 2010 also. Poll added and it is multiple choice.

    Nice! Make sure you get the proporting valve from a disc brake vehicle.

    So the k-member is in, so I doubt I'll have any winter plans. Probably some spring/summer plans. Next step will cost a good $3500.

    i used to be the guy that talked shit about people who ran good times with no safety equipment....and now i'm that guy

    a cage has been on my mind for a while now....something about crossing the center line at 130+ coming out of the groove that'll make you shit your pants

    Hopefully finish everything up with the swap in the Camaro (fuel, front accessories, flexplate, pilot spacer, and the obligatory misc crap) and and have it in the body shop by February or so. The motor for the Mustang should be running by the end of the month. Hoping for somewhere between 300-325hp at the crank. And hopefully it will be in paint and on the road by February as well.
