wanna prep another car for paint while your at it?
lol ill sand it down and MINIMAL body, but i dont have time for nothing major.
like SMALL dents and dings. just PM me I.M. me on AIM at 'DOHC Damage'
keep it up
and keep posting your pics. im lovin it!
BRB, The Dashing Dancer :yes:
you can still paint it in the cold, just wait for a semi mild day. divide half of your garage with plastic and put heater(s) on the side you aren't spraying, close the garage door and let the temp and everything regulate for about a day or so to get the metal temp of the car about equal to the room. then for your fresh air fans have them pull the warm air from the other side of the garage into your makeshift spray booth, then exhuast everything outside....spray it, then crank of the heater(s) after you are done spraying with the garage door closed, let it get around 100 degrees in there and let it bake.
also you wanna use a faster reducer
ya i know all that, im acctually talk to the shop next to where i work about renting their booth, the shop owner is a good friend of my uncles, but im still kinda weary about using someone else space.
also i got a neighbor that has a heated air plane bay that said i could use it if i didnt mess it up. im not in any big hurry, kinda works out, so i can concentrate on getting the suspension and motor semi where i want it, and also the body (bumpers and CF parts) have a freash paint job this spring!
probally still gonna primer it white so its all one color.
my house and shop should be done this spring beau. Baking is not neccesary, it doesnt change anything but the dry speed
well lets spray it this spring LOL ill pay ya to help out.
anyways come by this weekend whenever to drop off that sandwich
well spend some time and get her nice. Its a lot easier to get a car looking nice when you dont really have a rush to get it done.
lol why you think im waiting to paint it now until spring, 1 cause its getting coldQuote:

Sweet ass man. Its wierd seeing my bumpers on a different car lol. Everythings look good man! I need to come by sometime and check it out.
forreal dude! i was kinda getting lazy with everything and got un motivated, then i got my valve train, and paint, and bearings, and started working again lol.
it will probally be after the new year when im done, which is only a month after what i was shooting for, cause i am going to newyork the 18th through the 21st.
all i lack is various seals and gaskets, clutch, tranny and axles
I see were gonna be runnin the same Valve train, just different heads lol. Im workin on getting a beater so i can start the build on the teggy. I might end up callin ya up for the "super secret weight reduction" tips.
haha ya man just give me a holler whenever
good shit as usual
Its on now lol! I guess i can finally start the build. I think im gonna cry tho after i get done removing everything. Oh yea, i need more info on removing the factory sound deadening. I know you need dry ice, but i dunno anything else bout it.
thats about it...dry ice with hit it with a hammer and it all comes up....or wait until the dead of winter, and use a chisel
Chisel for the win! Whats the final color gonna be? Didnt you tell me championship white?
good shit son............
flat white FTW.. That shit is gonna be right when its done, keep it up homie..
thanks bro's (no pun intended)
ya im hoping it does, still need some wet sanding in a few spots, ive never done just a flat color, i hope it dosnt fade out to be all choppy, i was gonna get the satin clear like on the s2 car, but that shit was like hell expensive
