Two head sized and one very close to that if left any longer haha

Jdesign

Where is there a head sized hole?!

Image result for squinting gif

It has two of them lol. Both of them are where the large floor plug is, behind the front seats

I have a month to get this on the road by trying to work on it only during the week. Fingers crossed

15 minutes a day is pretty much how I did my swap. I want to see your slide this car like you did with the drift trike haha

I definitely will haha. The cool thing is after selling bits off of this car, and totaling the Del Sol, I have zero money into the chassis. That means I can total it into a wall and only be upset that I hurt the MHW's lol. I am really excited to have to learn car control without having excess power to use as a crutch.

The car is registered, insured, and roadworthy. I drove it to work today with zero issues. Pictures will come from this weekend. I made a promise to a friend that I wouldn't share any potato pictures on the internet haha

Jdesign

Would it be unfair for me to share some?

With the alignment it is pretty darty but it drives really nice. I need to get adjustable end links so I can connect the front swaybar too, since it seems the ones from BC are even too short to use at the height they set the coils at when shipping

The exhaust is stupid loud (muffler delete with a cherry bomb to eliminate a little buzz) and it really resonates inside of the cabin with the sound deadening removed. Not to mention I don't have the radio code and also don't have the 5 sided tool to remove the radio and give the serial number to the dealer=( For some reason they don't have it logged under the VIN number...

Headphones? LOL

The car was problem free all weekend other than a leaking valve stem. Super happy with it so far and just a few things left to button up before doing slidey stuff.

Waiting on pictures from my friend yet but I'll leave this here

Great work! it looks fun. How I see it, an E36 coupe is a better drift car option. When you go sliding backwards into a wall you can just continue on life as a ti. Starting out with a ti means your unintentional wall-tap mulligan has been used up.

just sayin

I've driven worse hahah I was really surprised at how well it drove with the Stanley eye alignment hahaha
