Looking good Greg! I can't wait to check it out tomorrow evening. Maybe I'll even bring something over to work on!

*mattack69* · 10-03-2011, 10:05 AM

B==D can you place that on or around your car for me? thanx

JaredP · 10-03-2011, 11:55 AM

Looks amazing toby. I can't wait to get my bay painted

SaNTi · 10-03-2011, 12:31 PM

Yehhhhhhhhhh dude! Now the fun part begins.

s14unimog · 10-03-2011, 03:07 PM

Hey thanks for some of these specific painting details. I'm actually getting close to prep/painting my bay and it'll be useful to reflect back. Killer work, as always. Your attention to detail is inspiring (finally... I'm not the only one)

*NismoPlsr* · 10-03-2011, 07:56 PM

It's going to come together quick, well at least it will look like more progress is getting made compared to weeks of sanding.

Any macro shots of how the seam sealer came out?

I am thinking i should have taped it off like you then painted over it instead of "free handing" a black sealer over black paint.

where is the like button when you need it.

Man, wagons have really advanced from the rusty steel thing we used to pull around.

Toby,

Be honest man. The way you have the car on the trailer is more than coincidence. You are are preparing it for wheelies. You are not fooling me lol!

Dude, jealous that you can just "check out" Broadfield's build whenever want to zip over and see it.

Toby, you're going to have so much fun installing all the fresh parts again-at least that's my favorite part after it's painted

Great work as always, can't wait to see it all together!

Pstl_pete · 10-05-2011, 11:11 AM

Your attention to detail is beyond inspiring.

I love that you document things so well. Keep it up!

blueshark123 · 10-05-2011, 11:20 AM

I think your picture is a bit out of focus lol

angels12 · 10-05-2011, 12:18 PM

fantastic! waiting for the final result, congrats on your project

Broadfield · 10-05-2011, 12:19 PM

LOL... Kyle, I told you that you were becoming the resident Zilvia dickhead.

I went ahead and had the cross member, Nismo Power Brace and steering rack brackets powder coated a gloss black. I fought for a little while on the color, but came to the conclusion that black is the only color that fits my style for that type of part:

Cleaned up the wiper motor and mounted up the new Chase Bays master cylinder setup:

My steering rack needed some serious cleaning and help. Even though you won't really be able to see it under the motor, I needed to address it:

I cleaned all of the cast aluminum up with some Maxx Solv and painted the rods and body with some gloss black epoxy paint. I thought I uploaded the pic of the finished product to my Fotki, but it's not there. So I'll post that pic later as I'm at work at the moment.

At this point I couldn't really think of anything better than dropping the motor in for a test fit. I want to give a huge thanks to my boys Kyle and Jeff for giving me hand with this:

Me struggling putting the drivers side header in. I actually had to have the motor mounts up and out of the cross member, then drop each header into the car. Then lower the motor into place and bolt the headers up:

It's officially in... well, temporarily:

The nice thing is that there isn't going to be much else in the bay that isn't in there now. I will be tucking the radiator, battery in the trunk, tucked coolant overflow etc. So really the only other things that will be seen in the bay are just a custom intake setup, black braided AN radiator hoses with all black fittings, AN heater hoses also with the all black setup, custom oil filter relocate setup... again with the same all black AN stuff.

nightsauce · 10-05-2011, 12:23 PM

I love it dood.

Beejis60 · 10-05-2011, 12:26 PM

looking tasty. The coil packs being up by the fuel rail fawk with my mind; I stare at my LS2 thinking mine's a better design

Ok I might be kind of a dick, but definitely not the resident zilvia dickhead. Not clever enough. Gotta have the quickness of someone like clearcorners mike or ryan nowicki for that title.

ka-titties · 10-05-2011, 12:42 PM

That's amazingly clean.

*kyles1988* · 10-05-2011, 12:53 PM

Wait a minute...i'm on to you scumbag...you just cleaned up that photoshop job a little bit! This thing is probably still a bare shell!

*GSXRJJordan* · 10-05-2011, 01:06 PM

Those Katech covers are the business. Conrad has 'em in black on his LS7 (super dorkster pic from my customer gallery)

I think I like 'em better in orange.

Those stock fuel rails though... ughhh. I almost want to send you my extra rails but they're not for short LS3 injectors lol.

First of all, I think you are losing your memory, because you already posted that exact picture with basically the same text in this very thread a while back

Second of all, if you think I'm going to run those damn OEM fuel rails you are sadly mistaken. This car will not be done till Spring... I have a long ways to go and a lot of parts to buy. Most likely I will run the FAST billet rails and paint/anodize them black instead of the garbage red-maroon they are out of the box. But if you want to give me a set of nice rails you have laying around I won't say no
