Gary 805- Windex Evo Build Part 2.
So after letting the car sit for almost a year collecting dust i'm building the motor and doing some extra fun stuff while im at it. Im sure it will go above and beyond what i say so well see what comes but figured i would post up the progress. This is something im doing on the side as im working full time right now.
Plans are 2.3 Lots of powdercoating, new interior setup, breaking in the motor with factory turbo setup then will change things around later.
Thinking of the super wide Voltex kit later on.
?
When i first Started.
After the round one.
And now to the slow progress
Much more to come.
Front Bumper, Fenders and more taken apart.
Found out the paint wasnt that bad after cleaning it up. I almost thought the color was apex silver after all the dust that had collected on it.
New Keys Steering Wheel
All my stuff starting to stack up on the shelf i had made haha this was my first time building anything besides a box to skate on haha. But that was years ago and i would steal the wood from construction sites
Very dirty and dust filled engine bay. So much cleaning and painting to do here. The intercooler pipe clamps were so rusted that most of them broke while trying to take them off.

The newer car to me is my MK4 Supra. It's an auto and a non turbo but I'm driving it as my super cool daily till I pay it off and finish the evo.
This build has been put off too long. So now it's time to slowly put things together.

Okay took more apart today I'll have more pictures later I'm debating where to locate everything and in what fashion to finish it off. I'm going to go full on aircraft pop breakers on the inside to get rid of all the fuses and might go with a mil spec quick connect on the firewall like chase bays I'll post the pictures later
And the license plate bracket it off only one screw is holding it on

Nothing recent I did nothing more than hide the injector wires under the manifold and tuck the little things nothin worth posting. I sold all my arc parts and I'm going to do everything from scratch piping radiator intercooler etc. I'll post it up but this will be a slow build to get in depth later on.

Started more of the tear down, i want to lable everything on the harness and i need to order the material for the tuck that i will need later, just some heat shrink and heat shrink lables so that everything is clean and need.
My girl helped me out on the wire process. She stayed the whole time.
The junk dried up loom and such that is getting tossed out.
Thought about mounting the fuse box under the headlight but have harder ideas in mind haha. Ill look into it some more later.
