Hey, remember that when your car is done, you have to hook me up with the guy re-spraying it...

What shade of black is it going to be?

aaaaaaaaah progress.

My 2.0 baja was black, man that car lasted a day and I'd have to wash it again. Midnight Black.

Awesome when it was clean though.

there's only two colors for a car for me and that is black and red. so what im going to do is combine the black and red i.e. the entire car will be black with chrome bumpers and hubcaps and red wheels. im powder coating the standard wheel red, and yes a thick ass white wall as well :wink:

Vuyo you are going to make a rear engine carrier right?
You're not going to just let the engine hang on the gearbox right?

:) just thought i might give you advice from my experience..

Good stuff... without it your release bearing and input shaft seals will wear out and when you push the car hard the gear "gates" will change their position...
