Obtaining a bay that looks like that for something that gets driven is a little absurd. Theres no way it would look like that after a month of use. By the looks of that header id say he drives it a lot.

[Zappythebum]

thats a show car's engine bay lol of course it wont look like that if its driven alot

I think im in love

[bettsbanger]

still at it i see haven't checked the thread out in a while, looks like your still motivated. good work

[mac_24_seven]

Well, no updates on Aeris. I've been busy doin everything else.. Though I plan to get to workin on her STAT soon.. right after I start and finish another project :S



I bought another car.





It's a 95 DX. Has rear integra seats in it, a VIS carbon fiber trunk,GSR front brakes and AEM slotted rotors on the rear.. The cars in good shape other then the dent on the passenger side, otherwise it's really straight.

it needs carpet, steering wheel and an ECU, along with a few misc pieces. The engine/tranny is a D15 and runs perfectly, just needs to be installed. Comes with everything to get it running (minus the ECU) and all the AC components.....

$600.00

I'm going to get her running and try to flip it. I know it should get mid to high 30's MPG and if I can get the AC working (for t3h cheap) I can get a pretty decent price for it.

Soooooooooooooo..... We'll see. It's a gamble but I think I can make a few $$ and pay off a couple of bills, which is what I'm trying to do. Props to my loving wife Megan for trusting me enough to let me take our money and try to make more!

I'm picking the car up on Thursday and if all goes well... I"m going to drive it home on Friday. We'll see how that works out! It would be a miracle if I do, but stranger things have happened!

After thats up and gone, I'm getting back on Aeris and finishing it. It's taken wayy longer than what I wanted and I've got to get it done. I can't really justify working on on my Del Sol alot when my Teg is in pieces, so I've got to finish one so I can start the other.

How do you know the motor runs well if its not in the car?

[OldSkoolDa91]

lol, i was wondering the same thing

[mac_24_seven]

I've dealt with the guy before, he's straight. He's actually the dude I traded my wheels with. Nice guy, I believe him. I"ll find out soon enough

[OldSkoolDa91]

thats cool. its always nice when you can actually trust somebody. hard to do that these days

[mac_24_seven]

I know, right? I don't trust unless I've been given a reason to, no matter how nice they are or seem to be.

It's sad.. I use to trust people until I got screwed, right here on H-T.

Never again!
--------------

In more wheelin and dealin news, I'm pretty sure I've got my old mufflers frommy Mustang and my PSP traded for a guitar and amp






I have and play drums already and as dumb as it may sound, actually playing rock band has made me want to get back into playing guitar again. So I figure if I can pick this up without spending any $$$, I'm in good shape!

If I can't, then I'll just sell the mufflers and PSP.

We'll see!

[mac_24_seven]

Aite guys... just a lil update. I'm finished with the passenger side and have just a lil more on the drivers side and then I'm done!



It may not look like it, but there's a hella lot of work there. It's really smooth. Just need to prime it. But I"m gonna prime the whole bay at once so you'll have to wait for moar pics.

Whew.

[be18see1]

Lookin' good man!

[jomama]

jo

[Spawne32]

[integrax97]

Why did you cut a large part of your driver side bay out??

It's going to be welded up nice N clean

[integrax97]

I was thinkin of doin that but I kinda wanted to keep the look of the bay somewhat oem and not completely flat. I like curves a little bit in my bay but no holes... :-P lookin good so far, car's come a long way

[mac_24_seven]

Well, if ure gonna shave, DONT WELD THE SEAMS. Just shave the holes. I would have already have been done if I would have just shaved the holes.

[mac_24_seven]

I just made this.. It's my forum signature on a couple other sites.

That really should be close to how my bay will look. It's shaved that much.

Andrew proposed we run the throttle cable under the manifold, we just have to make a bracket. Soooo, I think thats what we be gonna do.



Were gettin close!
