Default Pics of things I'll never use...

I X-posted this from turbo because I have requests from NA guys for these pics too. These are the FX-1 Pro's I picked up in the group buy, STILL going on btw!

Seats and roll bar going in, I'll post finished product when its finished. (everyone likes pics, besides I've had a bunch of requests for these)

I found 3 cassettes (how long were they there???) and about 2 bucks in change.

Maybe one day the car will actually let me take it to the events I sign it up for...

Corbeaus look pretty decent. I'm going to be removing most of my interior on the 84 car. Particularly everything past the front seats. At least I'll then have an excuse for a ratty look - weight savings.

GL getting your car running. Also, what made you decide to go with a dual exhaust?

Well, its just dual tip coming out of a spintech muffler. the Fact that I found the bursch testpipe and 3.0 catback with that muffler for 200 bucks (plus shipping) made me decide on that. I think I've convinced myself I like it though.... They look nice when not covered in soot, nice and polished!. I need to tune!
BTW, the sound from the dual tip is interesting. Gives it almost a v8 growl at idle... minus a few cyl.

Looking good, buddy! Now you can let them sit until next year, when you have your engine done!

Do your self a favor and put the mounting bolts for the inner rear seatbelts back in. You'll be suprised how much trans noise can come through those little holes. It seems to be just the frequency that drives my ears nuts.
Cheers,
Jason

Jason, i was wondering why the shifting made more noise when sitting in the driveway. Granted i havent fully mounted the roll bar yet, so those holes are there. Thanks for the advice! didnt know those holes go all the way through!

I don't think they go all the way through, but they does transmit quite a bit of noise.
I have mine out and it rings my ears after a while. Take it for a spin and plug the hole to hear the difference. Really no big deal, but.........
Good luck on the install!

I hear a lot of trans noise since the bar install, I thought it was just because it was echoing through the bar itself, but I will throw the bolts back and see if that helps. Thanks for the tip!
