A Few Videos From VIRginia International Raceway (VIR)

 

 

Wheels are Painted.

I sprayed a few coats of Dupli-Color wheel paint on the Snowflakes.

Snowflake Wheels

Big thanks to my neighbor. He blasted the extra set of snowflake wheels that had a multiple coats of flaking paint. I'm not sure what color to paint them. Any ideas?

 

 

New Plug Wires

As I was assembling the head, I pulled a plug wire out of the connector. I bought the Autotech Shock Therapy wires.

 

Plug Wires

I pulled a wire out of a connector. Time for new plug wires. Autotech plug wires are on the way.

New Tires

New tires are on the way. They are Nitto NT01s in 205/55/14.

Techtonics Tuning Exhaust

I had to make a slight adjustment in the exhaust pipe. Techtonics Tuning helped with providing a spacer to create a little more space around the rear suspension area.

Started the Engine!

Motor

The motor is complete. I need to finish bolting the exhaust together.

New Exhaust Pipe

The old Techtonics Tuning exhaust pipe was a little rusty for welding. Techtonics gave me a deal on a 2-1/4" stainless steel pipe. I hope to have it installed this weekend.

Installed the Eurosport front lower x-brace.
