    Will be working most of all day tomorrow, but Friday should get some pics up (lame i know!).

    I've kind of decided tonight that since the car is going to get me through school, and i have my rx7 to build as my drift/autox/race machine, this car is going to be built ballin' on a budget style. It should handle good/look good/ run great for overall about $1,000 - $1200 invested (this includes the purchase of teh car, the $150 wheels on it, tires... etc etc Everything). Then i can decide if I want to change stuff later down the road once my rx7 gets more complete. I'll take pictures and have receipts haha.

    Car - $60
    Wheels/tires - Baja! $150 (the tires are too big, but they have life left so im gonna ride them out lol. Will fix)
    Oil change - like $12
    Charge Battery - Free.
    Bleed brakes - Free

    So not bad for like $220 invested so far. The AC still works and its cold .

    Coming soon:
    Gr2's and megan springs (stock **** is worn out... 306xxx miles..)
    Rear sway bar - i think ST haven't decided...

    Yeah its coming along. I still need a drivers side window (mine came with a broken clip, no worky!) And mirror. But its a damn good start.

    I'm going to try and build the car for less than $1k with tires, some suspension, and cleaing it up/fixing the small stuff....
    This baby is gonna get me through college, and be a fun ass daily driver.
    More updates to come.
