You are building a killer car,that's a lot of nice work and very fast,if you get bored maybe you can help me catch up to this point,just kidding.keep up the good work.:trophy-1302:

Awesome build ! I like what your doing on it.

Thanks tubbed69 and Wayne.



I debated which sub frame connectors to use and decided that I would not use the bolt ins and cut the floors open and used the DSE connectors. burned them in, tied them in to the front sub by welding it on to the frame and bolting it to the connectors, cleaned up the welds and laid down some sound proof material.

The little woman must have seen how much time I was putting into looking at roll bars and cages and she got me a gift.. a Tiger Cage:hapdance:

It is a nice looking piece. I really wanted to go welded but looking at this and the way it tied into the structure, it was like no other bolted cage I have seen. Besides I can always get one welded later if I step up my plans.

Getting the Tiger Cage installed seemed straight forward but it has its challenges. I had some fitment issues that i have to work around. Overall with this tied in the the floor box sections and backed up with 1/4 inch pates under the car it feels really solid but it is one thing I hope never to put to the test.

Living in Cali has it perks but when you are working under a car at 9 at night and an earthquake hits it can become unsettling fast :brix: . Luckily the car did not fall off the stands but it did move over a few inches and cause some minor damage. Several aftershocks continued to rock the house so I put extra jacks under the car just to add some more stability. After not getting much sleep and about 100 or so aftershocks it is Saturday morning. more quakes!! Now I am pissed and worried. I get to work onthe car so I can plant it on its wheels. I scored a Magnaflow 3 inch stainless exhaust kit for $300 bucks on Craigs in December and mocked it up so I can get to a muffler shop.

I thrashed all Sunday on the car to get it down on its wheels. Exhaust is in but in my hurry I did not takes pics. Got the carpet down and got the seats from a Mitsu Evo mounted in. I did not set ride height at all because I am trying to finalize wheels and sizes. But it is on its wheels and in the daylight.

It looks great man!

Cars looking very good,sounds like you have a great little woman to buy you a roll cage,I put a DSE roll bar in mine today and my wife said it was ugly,everything your doing looks good on the car,good luck with it:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Lol. My wife will say the same thing. And I thought she was a car gal. :knock:
