New here from the States.

Nice to see something a little different!

 

Am i right in thinking that the 1.9 motors is a CVH block? Hence where we get our 'American Tall Block' converted RSTurbo's from?

If that is the case it might be worth you looking around some of the other tuning forums we have here, specifically for those cars. You'll be surprised at how far we can push them!

Happy Holidays everybody!!! I'm glad to be here! I've been in the hospital since my last post and haven't been able to get anything car wise done!

Pneumonia is a bitch!! LOL!

 

When I'm healthy again I'll be back with updates. Have a happy new year and I'll see you then.

Well today wasn't as cold and I was feeling a little bored and also feeling better.

I decided to get out today and get a few updated pics of the two cars. Tell me what ya think!

Oh yeah I'm aware of the flat tire on the red car and both cars need a new paint job.

silver one will be good with matching wheels....really not loving the bodykit on the red one

[scottybo]

get some decent brakes on the silver one and itl look s a lot nice....does anyone else think that they both look a little bit sad at the front end? the front lights look like sad puppy dog eyes

Red one is desperate for a respray! Need to spray that chrome on the b pillar too. Not a fan of chrome trim. I dont mind the bodykit, will look a million times better when sprayed but I think its too low on those wheels.

 

Like the 'wheels' on the back of the silver one. Some nice brakes under them would look good.

[scort4life]

Planning on respraying both. As for the rear brakes, the brake swap is a little costly, even if I go to the junk yard and find a GT for the swap.

Future plans yes, just no funds right now.( Buying a house)

Was out working on the car today since I'm havin problems with the Silver car starting.

I was able to get my mud flaps on the car, and finish some of the interior and cleaning it up and detailing the interior.

This is the interior. Still have some gauges to install and a new headliner and stereo and speakers, before fully complete.

As for the exterior work, I ran out of daylight to take those pics. Will take pics tomarrow.

I was going through my phone and found pics that my wife took that I didn't know she did.

So heres the pics I didn't know I had! I did some work under the hood today. I polished the intake manifold, and intake pipe.

While I was doing that I took the time rerunning the intake pipe turning it into a true cold air intake.

I also polished the strut bar and cleaned up the whole compartment.

Today I also cleaned the car since it was so pretty and 50 degrees Ferenheit.

I also installed my new rear mudflaps, and tinted my taillights.
