so with the end of the silver car, im sick of driving this green snotbox bucket of shit,
as most of yuz have read...this was/is/might be/maybe/still dont no yet if its forsale
i decided to transfer all the gear from the silver banga into this to make it a lil more comfortable to drive
it all started with this pile of shit i had at work
so out came the factory ED motor
and in went the factory stok EL engine
interior had to go
kept the analog guages, jus put the cleaner glass on it (planning toput digi dash back in at a later stage)
change complete dash's for the EB's charcoal 1
slapped in the fairmont rear seats
boltd down the moza seats
then came the next problem with the car...its auto!
so after arguing with pat for an hour thats its easier pull the EL engine/auto out as 1 an slot in my other EL Engine/5speed as 1...but nooo, its easier jus to change the box he sez...
so i sez to him, either u do it ur way or ill do it my way...
as a result, heres pat underneath the car doing it his way
i still rekn my ways easier wen uve got both complete engine/box's sittin there readty to change but ahwell, it onli took 5hrs lol
with the manual in and workin, the steering wheel was the next mod
then it was off to the wreckers to build a diff
Donar car #1
4.11's from a pinatra
Donar car #2
Diff housing from an EA
Donar car #3
28spline axels from an ED
and a mini spool
slap the gears in
set the backlash
i got no pix of boltin the diff in, but trust me...its in there
so with the car goin not too shabby (refer to the FS thread)
i thought fuk it, lets give it sum gas!!!
bought a Sniper Wet Shot kit for V8 (75 - 150hp)
and in it went within half an hour of gettin back to the factory
wat nitrous??
ohh, that nitrous..
so there u have it....my new an improoved $2000 shitheap
ill let yuz no how it goes at calder wen i race it, id like to take it b4 i run 9 bottles thru it...
ive pulled the ghia rims off to polish them an rap'em in sum new rubber
and raised the ass for roady
