Out of curiosity, what are you doing with the old rims? They are the same ones I have.

They are on the 04 for now. I need something to roll the car around on. If anyone wants them, let me know. I would just need to put something in its place. I don't care if you brought me 4 donuts to roll it around on, just need it to roll

Nice work. I like the idea of the 4.6 in the Fox body.

Thanks guys. Gonna try to go over and play with it today. we need to strip out the engine bay and get it ready to be painted

 

[4eyedcoupe]

started laying out harness and got pedals in

hydroboost mounted

 

[4eyedcoupe]

dropped the motor in for first test fit and check of the stance. We weill have to go back to the fox a-arms to pull the wheels in a bit

 

[4eyedcoupe]

Not sure on the rear stance. There is no gastank or anything on the car at the moment, so there is no weight on the rear. It didn't seem to budge when I stood on it. I weigh 150#, can't imaginge a full fuel tank would weigh more than that, so I may end up trimming the rear springs. looking for a set of fox a-arms for the front if anyone has a pair.

paint may be coming sooner than originally planned. I am either going to go with the color the car is or go with the color of my old celica pictured below. Its a blue, but looks grayish. The first celica I owned that color I thought was gray until one day I noticed when it rained it was a brilliant blue. What do you guys think?

 

[adkmach1]

Pick what ever color that makes you happy, your the one that's going to drive it all the time. Just remember if you do too much of a color change your going to have to paint inside of door, door jams, inside of trunk, maybe under the hood and etc. You got a great build going, keep us posted.

 

[PrjctLxEnvy]

awesome build, loving the progress

 

[AdirondackFox08]

Well, not really the two colors I would choose, but then again it's not my car, lol. It's your car, choose what you like.

Fixed my wheel offset problem. Picked up a set of S197 wheels. With the Sn95 brakes and suspension, the s197 wheels fit alot better than the SN95 wheels. I will post some pics later

 

[4eyedcoupe]

Wheel has the wrong size tire on it, but once I change them it will look even better
