Next up:

NEW PROJECT!!!!!

Just picked up a 1980 Ford Superduty Piickup with a 400ci (6.6L), C6 3 spd Tranny, Dana 60 9" rear end, 55K miles. Now I'm just looking for a Fox body Mustang to toss the drive train into.
I'm looking to get 11's on the motor and high 10's on a 200 hot or so. In case you couldn't realize, I'm a nitrous junkie!

What are you guys working on?

P.S. My gf is still trying to fix her tranny on the 92 Legacy SS...2.2L of turbo fury, coming right up!
And my 98 GSXR 600 is till waiting for a pocket bike or Go-Kart to donate it's life to science.

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...

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 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. It's soooo cheap!

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.
