Re: Kaptain Keith's da9. The "Statement"
I got 700 man hours into it. I got it nov. 2010 and havent even drove it yet.
So.. 4x8 piece of sheet metal. 3gals. Of body filler. 4 sprayable gallons of paint and primer. And a ton of sandpaper. Next is the engine bay. I will relocate the battery to the hatch. Relocate the underhood fuse box. Under the dash. Wire tuck it all. Tuck the brake lines. Relocate the proportion valve... Under dash. Convert to a manuel steer rack from an ef. Strip and paint everything using the highest quality paint money can buy. Thanks for checkn out my build so far. Although its more of a resto at the moment, but i do have some tricks yp my sleeve for performance. |
Re: Kaptain Keith's da9. The "Statement"
nice work so far, good luck.

How did the car get that clean? Looks nice in the sun. when he bought the car, it was just a bare RHD shell w/ drum brakes in the rear, zero interior. he had to swap everything over from his parts car. everything on his ride was built from the ground up by him, other than the body and paint (he let the insurance handle that). he's actually in the process of painting his engine bay and dropping in a jdm B16. the car is that clean because he is really meticulous and pays attention to every single detail when working on his car. he's a JDM guru/fanatic. every single JDM part for that car was pieced together from everywhere and must have taken him 5+ years. he even has the JDM brown tinted rear window. he is constantly searching for those rare JDM parts. |
