Real Fiero Tech

Everyone knows that back in Oct, my car was taken for a 600km joyride and had the engine, turbos and clutch killed by an Alarm install Employee.
So it was time to fix the car. Here are the "before" pics and I will add progress pics as they are taken.

I didnt want to turn this car into a 5 year project and nickel and dime it together over a decade. So over the course of the last 2 months and the next 2 months, she will be completed. Hoping to have a magazine quality car when done. Need to solidify a deal on upgraded brakes though!








My car had damage on the LH side 1/4 panel and was hastely repaired in Japan. The Greddy / Trust bumper extentions, Nismo spats and open mouth grill will be color matched and the car resprayed with original Silver.

I will. I want to spend more time autocrossing next summer than at the dragstrip. But it will see a dyno.

Very first post updated with correct parts list now. Wow! an update:
Finally got my JIC Magic seats in! What a pain those Bride seat rails are a pain.. for fat fingered folks anyways...



Rotora Dry Carbon 3D wing... mmmm

Parts everywhere...

:dontknow:

I cannot help but wonder why he ups and sells a car when it is so close to being finished, and amazing. Might as well finish it and at least drive it once.

First his turbo 3.4l Indy, with no expense spared, and now this. Why?

I think if the kid didn't wreck his engine, clutch and turbos he would still be a happy skyline owner.

I get bummed too when my stuff doesn't run. You find other things to do. He bought a harly and lost interet in the car.

did donk die on his harley?

Donks never die...


Skyline is 500 bucks from being done. Been in storage since Oct due to shop closing down and my garage not ready till next month.

Holy shit, donk's alive. Nice bike. :thumbleft:

The question is, when you get your skyline running, will you ride around in those crotchless leather pants when you drive it? I hear fast cars and going commando is what gets all the chicks.

I am a sportbike fan myself, but that bike doesn't look to bad.....
