I have built a shell and have some experience and understand the time and effort it will take to make this car right.

Also, see everyone at expo with this green and yellow ride

lol i know were you got that car... you bought it from Gary

i was there the day before you got it checking it out

[Hooch'n]

Yep, needs work.....but it helps i have a spare car with all the parts to make this one run......it will be a long project to complete it to "Real ITR" status......but it will be a real R with a GSR motor and B16tranny for awhile til i get things in line......like a weld in cage, etc.

It will be a monster someday, but my main HPDE/track car is my EG hatch since i have a cage and all the bugs are worked out.

This car will be a great HPDE car and then a race car someday when i have money to blow on it. Just want to get this car so i can drive it around and dog it from time to time on the track.....like Expo.

[Splat]

thanks, the hardest part was doing all the wiring.......going from ITR obd2 to LS/GSR obd1 and swapping all of the harness and not just the firewall. I had to do the doors because the cut some wires.

Also, steering rack changed because ignition was all messed up with the alarm and other crap the people did to the poor car. So, i kept all the orginal stuff and used the green car to supply the obd1 and extra parts.......
