Haha, yea i wish i could...but my four door is consuming all of my time. i got the bottom end built, now just waiting for JG Engine Dynamics valve springs and titanuim retainers to come in, then the head is going to be sent off to be ported and polished...

Can't wait 'til it's done, man

nice collection, very nice

Thanks, man.

I'm just itchin' to drive her...will get insurance next week and then try to fix the headlight.

I, finally, got a tag for the red coupe. Now, I drive without worrying about getting pulled for not having a tag.

[rojodamonkey]

nice collection of cars u got there

[blaknoize]

U will soon come to learn that those 14 inch Falkens will suck ASS when they hit very light rain. (Unless all tires do) cuz damn I was driftin in it on I-285 to I-20 east. They're great in heavy rain, and great in dry, but light rain makes it scary...

[blaknoize]

high milage??? nah, mine was high milage.... 420,xxx miles when i sold it It was all original, no accidents and factory paint!

American automakers would be in aww... GOD, the highest mileage I ever had was 287,xxx on my Accord. :idb: the mileage up tha buttcheeks

[.:Stirfry:.]

[puregroove]

lol...been a while since I updated this thread.

Progress on the red '85 coupe:

installed - hi-flo cat (50 carb legal), resonator (forgot how long--over 12", I think ), magnaflow oval muffler...all welded together with 2.25" piping.

--sounds really good. --bassy and powerful

Also, new rotors and ceramic pads installed.

Oh, I also got a set of rims in. Some of you already know what they are. I'll take pics when I get the chance.

below:





The master, Paul, at work:::





--nice welds:::



Done... I know some of you are thinking, that the muffler must rub. The way it, currently sits, is perfect. Different from the pic above. It clears nicely.

It's really not that bad for me. Make sure you have tread.

GRM FTW

Pimp man. What ya gonna do with the mesh wheels? Let me know if you want to ever get rid of em. Anyway youll love those pads...no dust barely. I just put some on mine about 3 weeks ago and I havent cleaned my wheels since. Youll love the magnaflow also, Thats what I have on the accord. Over time though it will probably get slightly quieter.

[nvmysrt]

dude your car is sweetness!!!!!!

ah, that's right...you're 4x114.3, right? They'll probably end up on the '76 for a bit. I've had ceramic pads in the past and loved how clean they kept the rims... right now, the sound of the pad and rotor rubbing together is just real bad. I'm hoping it will quiet down after a bit of use.

dude your car is sweetness!!!!!!

Thanks, man. It was already sweet when I bought it. It can only get better.
