Sweet build man just wondering how missions it was to do the carpet dying. I've read that you need to reeeeally scrub the carpets clean before you soak them otherwise the dye goes on uneven.

Which rails are you using for the brides? Do you carry passengers in the back? I've always wondered how difficult it would be for passengers to get into the back seats with two fixed buckets up front.

Thanks! I need to fix all the links, as they are indeed dead. I may lower the rear, I raised it all around after I got the knuckles installed, but there was really no need for that. We will see! |

Get the stuff from Walmart, it's super cheap. It'll be in the laundry dept I believe, NOT in the arts and crafts! - Wear gloves or you will end up with dyed hands - Less water = higher concentration of the dye, I would go a little under the instructions ratios in terms of water. This will make the dye darker - Buy like 3 bottles just to be sure, they are dirt cheap. Make sure your carpet is vacuumed and go to down with the spray bottle and and do like 3-4 coats of the dye. Let it dry over night minimum. Mine was a little "crunchy" at first but quickly was broken in and it feels like OEM. I'm a big fan of it. |

So, it's been a LONG LONG time since I have updated this thread. Lot's has happened! Here is a rough overview
2014: Drifted a bunch more. Kept having issues breaking my axles. Vinyl wrapped the car to see what the fuss was all about. Tore off the vinyl. Bought overfenders. Sold my OEM Kouki skirts and rear valences. Bought G-Grow skirts and rear. Painted the car RED. Sold the gram lights. Bought new wheels. Bunch of drift events. Enrolled in a new degree and changed my career completely! Put the car on hold most of the year. Enjoyed saving money for a while. 2015: Decided to sell the S14 SR20 setup. - Bought a 2JZ-GTE VVTi motor. Swapped it in. - Quickly realized OEM ECU sucks with a single. Sold the OEM ECU and injectors. - Bought MegaSquirt 3 PRO and ID1000CC's. So much more, but I'll be slowly dumping in pieces of the build into the post. Here is a teaser: |
