Fresh new paint and clear with all the holes shaved

Mostly in primer

We filled almost 80 unused holes in the engine bay, including where the factory wiring harness was. Should have it in paint by next weekend

Battery relocation is finished, along with the kill switch. We used:-Taylor battery box -Moroso billet battery terminals -Data Panel 200amp solid state relay -Flaming River kill switch

It’s made by JXB Performance. Only costs about double a stock one. They offer two different hardness levels. Super easy to install as it’s a two piece design.I’ll try and update more of what we’ve been up to. In the middle of quite a few things

It has IDS rear shocks that we added for this season. It’s had the STM drag brakes for a few years now. Added the JBX carrier bearing this off-season as well, with the DSS shaft I’ve had for a decade 😂

It’s coming around 🫣

I can't seem to get any pictures to upload, but I've dove into a pretty in depth build for this winter. I've been working hard on real estate for the last few years and this is my payoff.Hoping to race IFO FIS class, Street Car Takeover and the Shootout of courseCliff notes are: -FP Xona 82*67...

Carbonetics is supposed to make a good, trunk, roof and drag wing this winter. Someone already bought him a GVR4 to make molds from, so its almost a definite

Thanks to Ginev all of my rare CF goodies will be a dime a dozen come winter

What at this point of my ownership makes you think I would part it out?I'm a lifer. And if I get half my winter plans done, I won't be able to afford to ever sell it

Ashamed to admit I was stolen by the world of FB. Pretty active on the page there, and have a ton on GVR4 guys on my friends list. It makes me feel in the loop, but this place will always be home

Long time update. Car is finally all together.

Quoting G: #3? Dude you're freaking nuts!My thoughts exactly. Its look pretty clean though

+1 for dye the carpet. I used 6 bottles of RIT dye, and a couple spray cans of fabric day. It made a huge difference

Welcome. I would love it of my girlfriend had an XT. I'm stuck working on a Taurus

Car looks great as always Brett, and definitely has some more in it

Bought a grill from jnava. He knows bubble wrap can crack the corners, so he used shrink wrap instead. Thats the kind of expertise and professionalism that is free when you buy parts from Juan. Guess what else is free? Approx 80ft of shrink wrap

What injectors?I've been wondering what happened on that elimination pass. I can't believe it was just a vacuum line

Yes Mellow. Its removes the syncros and they modify to stock gears with a dog engagement.But its not as good as a PPG dogbox, because the weak stock gears are still being used.

I plan on doing it as well. I think EMX and BlackVR4 are the only two guys running one here. Justin had around $2k in his when it was all said and done. That was with the metal enhancements, other parts, etcLiberty takes a couple months for turn around time I believe

Quoting clevr4: Love the seats, great idea on the carpets. I'll have to do the sameThanks. I sliced my finger open on a bracket while installing my gauges. I thought I was going to ruin my new entire by making it look like a crime scene haha

Quoting GSTwithPSI: Looking good, Craig! This thing going to be ready for the Shootout?It better be haha I'm not sure if it will be race ready, but hopefully at least ready for the 2 hour drive

Got my EVO IX steering wheel installed. Thanks again Curtis

Car looks good on the dyno. Good numbers too!

Shiny turd indeed. I don't know how anyone has the patience for two GVR4s. They sure are a good looking pair though

^^^ I hope we can have a few more beers and make fun of the bro-tards

HKS 272 cams and HKS cam gears are installed. I think this is the first time I've had less parts waiting to be installed than on the carAlso installed my JMF small battery tray. I couldn't bring myself to add a kill switch to the outside, so this was my plan be. I was pleasantly surprised...

I plan to go once a week

I do like the trunk location. I don't agree that if your moving the battery it should go there though. If you race, that setup is completely wrong and won't pass tech. I know EMX has gotten lucky with that in the past.Anyways, that's why I changed my plans. I didn't want to drill a hole for a...

I think JMF is who you are referring to. I just installed mine tonight

Glad you're making some progress. And thank you for keeping the original badge with it's chassis

It's more about hanging out with the car family than it is racing anyways. Just come and have a good time

Wheels do look great. I didn't even recognize the color. Superb work like always Brett

We will have to make sure we meet up this year Joey.

Definitely bring the longboard. 1501 is still JSB. I keep adding more to my to do list, the closer I get to being finished. I'm not going to cut it as close as I have previous years though (trimming leaking fuel filler neck the morning of haha)

It's good you're honest about the spun beating. But for what they cost new, someone would have to be crazy to buy this

I want to do the 11.5 dial in class as long as all goes well. I hope you make it again this year Redwood. Good times as always, I'm sure

Galant mounts and DSM are the same

I finally took the center sections out of my EVO IX wheel and DSM wheel, to have them welded together. Hopefully it matches my seats nicely

I have one. $10 plus shipping? $20 shipped?

Half tool box, half wanna be race car

I'm going as always. Hopefully racing for the first time this year
