Well, this is a little disappointing. After reading 49 pages to get to nothing. No finished project, just a bunch of good ideas and multiple parts. Maybe by the time this gets to 55 pages we will see a finished product.

^^ good idea. But this one is one of those projects that is sooo lengthy that you almost can't wait to the end to start posting because it is sooo massive and this also is nice way of keeping a timeline that can be referenced so everyone knows the frustrations and changes that occur during such a large build.

Not true.

We haven't been in contact with the owner in a while, I'm not sure whats up. All I know is its going to need a nice dust off for when its ready to be finished.

I don't. It's completely unfathomable that one would put that kind of money in a 12-20k car (depending on the year bought) to be a "show" car. All that money could have been spent on a nice new Porsche or GT-R in which you could actually enjoy on the street. This should be a good lesson in **** poor logic and choices.

guessing buisness has fallen off a bit. I hope dude gets his build done it has a lot into it already, shame to have it covered up collecting dust @ Akuma

I know. I had to stop myself a few times from posting. I actually didn't want to post anything until it was completely done but once the car was running I couldn't resist. Esp since my turbo setup was not the norm (with AC).

Can't speak for the original posters attitude before but life sometimes gets in the way. Fate mysteriously throws you curve ***** when you least expect it forcing you to put things in perspective.

Yes it does. I don't think the owner is just going to let her sit and rot. I expect that he has some business to take care of and will be back to build it sooner or later. But, the other thing is that maybe he doesn't want to post on here anymore either and won't give the shop rights to post on it as well. There are so many possibilities that no one can say anything without it being "scuttlebutt". So, we shall wait.

Damn it, I just read 49 pages for no reason. I should've skipped to the end.
