Alright well currently I have my WRX, which we all know about, 2002 2.0 Stage 2 with Invidia Exhaust all around, result is the supposed 285 chp.
But the one I really love working on is the 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 I have out in my garage. Currently it is in non running state, I am redooing all of the electrics, I also have a set of dana coils on it that my brother installed, and it has a no name 4-1 exhaust on it. I am re painting it completely black. I currently dont have any pictures but when I get back from georgia I will have some. Always fun working on any project I can get. -------------------- |

I guess my wrx is a project but seeing as how its my DD for the moment mods have slowed down. The 944turbo is my track project at the moment. I just bought the ECU chips for it! now she flys! KW Varients and fiberglass body panels are next...

![]() Holset coming to a Solara near you ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: WRXFanatics Posts: 1823 Joined: 12-July 05 From: England.....for now Member No.: 14984 |
my project hasn't moved any further since i installed the aem fic. My g/f is up here for the summer so it's on hold till after that. I'm still trying to track down these CEL's for a multiple/random cylinder misfire, and # 3 and 5 cylinder misfire. I think it's somewhere in the wiring between the fic and the ecu...maybe a few bad wires or something, cuz i know the connections are good, and i pulled the same codes before and after i replaced the plugs and wires. Anyways, next up is an innovate lc-1 wideband, and jgs400 wastegate, the miscellaneous parts and a cheap ass welder cuz i don't feel like spending hundreds for something i'll only use once. As long as it's enough to support that holset, i'm good

Installed a new engine on the Superjet (stand-up jet ski) after the last one threw a rod. Took the opportunity to upgrade the cooling system and reinforce the hull. Also stripped the early 90s racing graphics off the side. Added footstraps as well so I can work on inverted tricks.

I'm debating building a early 90's civc Si hatch, similar to what you're doing iwrxit, but I'm not sure if I can justify buying another car, even if it is a designated track beater...otherwise just my car and driving skills, the working progresses...

I'm happy and that makes me sad. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: PhanaticMods Posts: 6901 Joined: 25-February 03 Member No.: 137 |
I'm planting some flowers and building hanging boxes on my fence to put more in. I'm also getting ready to plant a garden and possibly build a little "lean-to" off my fence in one corner with a rock garden & fountain so we can sit out side in the shade. Oh, yeah, I plan to repaint my garage this year as well as build a new porch. Does that count?

Picking up poo (depending on the dog) is a never ending project, so i think you found a winner there.

It'll be fine. Just get the hatch and drive it stock for the summer for "gas mileage". Then, when winter hits, build the life out of it.

I just scrapped the truck/stang project. I scored a vtec 1.6L SOHC motor for $150 bucks. I'm researching the rod/piston combo to support a 200 shot. I'm looking for high 10's with an Eagle/CP combo. the car is sub 2klbs w/ me in it. I think it's possible.
