My DB2 Build
#81
3M Super 90 is what I used. The Super 77 will not work.
I chose the checker pattern because it screams old school hot rod to me. Sure my DA is not a hot rod but it's old school and I think it's funky. It's not for everyone but I like it so that's what matters.

Finally lowered the front of the car today.
At first we SLAMMED it all the way down on the PICs. Back it out of my buddy's drive way, drove down the street, heard my upper control arms making sweet love to the shock towers (bang bang bang) and decided to raise the car. I then got denied by the driveway trying to pull back in.
I've now set it at a finger gap all around:
Oh, PICs are stiff!
I'll be doing more work tomorrow.

Still to cold to do the head liner, not in the mood to crack any of my plastic trim. I did however get my tinted tails on and I'm not impressed. They are too dark and don't really fit in with the car overall so I think they have to go.
I have some spare tail lights of course, 1 of which was cracked a bit and I got to thinking, I wonder how they would look cleared? Fired up the oven and after some sweating and work came up with the final product.
I like them, going to place them on the truck of the car before work and see what I think. I did a half *** job since this light was broken already so it's cracked a bit more now. I think a heat gun would work better or maybe a bit more heat in the oven itself. Depending on how lazy I am I'll do the driver side tail (which is mint) tonight. Then I only have to clean/detint one tail light.

nice job buddy, all i did was grab the GS ones from the earlier years and gave it a nice wetsand and polish. they look awsome. was actually thinkin of half tintin them. givin the clear part and shade of grey...jus wanna see since my colour sceme is all dark.
#86
These tails are much more clear then the 90-91 version imo.
I like em now if only I hadn't cracked the ---- out of both of them. I think I need a heat gun and of course ANOTHER set of tails lights.

I know they kill the car big time. Looking for another set of 92-93 tails to clear or I might try to clear these ones.
#96

Picked up my Speedohealer from Evolution yesterday. Bruno is a good guy.
Also grabbed my intercooler.
Yesterday Shawn at Level 12 did my alarm and I've got to say he is the man. No details will be shared expect for stealth install ftmfw!
Going to hit up the junk yard in a little bit to rummage for parts lol

Picked up more ---- today.
Hit Standard Auto Wreckers and found some tail lights, 90-91 style and cleared the pink lines out of them. Gonna try and get them on the car over the weekend.
Also grabbed a resistor box for my DSM 450s.
Lastly, got a set of DC side skirts but no pictures yet.

Got some stuff done, need to get it on the car, that's tomorrow!!
I wet sanded the tails because they were a bit banged up and had some sort of yellow paint on them. I also polished them, they look BRAND NEW!
Trimmed my DC sides.
Found a turbo manifold, picking it up from a buddy. It's only an egay one but whatever, some supports welded in place and it'll be ballin enough for me.
Also fixed my coin holder and mounted the Speedohealer inside for easy access and programming.

^Thanks!
Well did some work today in preparation for the turbo. Both AC and power steering are coming out. Before anyone says, I had my AC discharged when I bought the car last year.
So far lines are out, once the PS is out I can yank the AC compressor out too.
Also, I was looking at the front of my engine and well something seems to be missing from this picture.
Thankfully I have a set of mounts sitting here filled and waiting to go it. I'll put them in next week sometime.

Hopefully this summer. With my job it's hard to get time off but I'm starting to get Sundays off so I hope it keeps up and I can make both the strip and circuit this year.

Finally got around to looping my PS rack but not pictures of that.
Big difference in the feel of the car, GS-R is a friggin heavy *** car.
Cleaned the car up last week, spent a long time and I'm pleased with the result. Here's an **** shot with the new tails and the 'stock' exhaust.
Also placed an order for more gauges for my boost set up. Boost and fuel pressure plus a wideband O2, all from Prosport.com.
Ordering a pillar pod, battery relocating kit and we'll see what else this week.
