Haven't been able to do too much the past couple weeks, the weather has been shitty. WINDY! Some days 60mph. And when it was nice I was catching up on crap I couldn't do the day before. Then the gauges in my work truck went out and had to fix those.

all the new lights and motors

Then I re-did this trailor for a friend of mine for his atv.

I had a couple of hours earlier figured I'd go out and make a Y pipe for my exhaust. I had to cut my rear muffler out so I could tuck the exhaust up a lil more. Besides its a wonderful day to be in the "office".

Hopefully the weather holds up. I want to get her back on the road.

Looking good man. Keep that thing moving!

fast250sx · 04-22-2013, 09:23 PM

I had a couple more hours today so I welded the y pipe and got more of the exhaust tacked up. Almost done with it. One more day with it probably. Then the rear quarter panel. Only problem is, I won't be able to touch it again till wed. I have to rig the Shinedown concert tomorrow. Here are some pics of todays progress. Also a lil video of the sound. I was concerned it might be too loud, not too bad though.

I got the exhaust all put together and tacked up. I pulled it out, tomorrow I will clean it up and tig it all together.

before

After i started to cut. I forgotto take a pic after I cleaned and evened out the angle.

I think maybe they need more angle. Almost there!

I dunno why, but I'm really digging this build. Maybe it's your DIY attitude, but you still focus on quality. Iono. Either way, keep it up.

I gotta find the pics of the rain cap I was runing for a lil while. I think i have a short vid of what it sounded like also.

fast250sx · 04-30-2013, 09:16 PM

I finished the exhaust and mounted it. Now I can lower her some more. Also got a new steering wheel since my ol pos bent. Thank you xoxide for helping me decide on which wheel to get. I'm loving it, I'm thinking about getting it wrapped in some custom leather.

moar is better!!!

N
Na, that's not bent.

And thats it for now! thanks for lookin.

fast250sx · 05-01-2013, 05:36 PM

I didn't have much time today so I decided to remake the fender braces. The oem ones are crap. Since my car has solid subframe bushings and solid motor and tranny mounts it vibrates a lil at idle. So I made some to hold the fender more solid. Here's the pics.

Also I found my old rain cap I made. Ill look for the video.

Thanks for looking.

Super_Stewie · 05-02-2013, 07:22 PM

This just makes me wish I had the money to start mine even more. I'll have it soon enough though. Props on the fab skillz.

hellraiser · 05-06-2013, 12:21 AM

Awesome fab skills man

fast250sx · 05-06-2013, 07:25 PM

Thanks guys! Haven't had much time, been working shows. Today I did the setup for the killers. Gotta go back in a bit for the load out. Tomorrow I should have some time for some progress.

hellraiser · 05-06-2013, 07:39 PM

fast250sx · 07-10-2015, 12:38 PM

So after driving her for close to 4yrs years now, making close 400hp(im guessing) on a stock block. She finally blew! So now its time for a rebuild.

Hey man,

Just read through your build thread, real dope fab work.

Question: How do you like your stance suspension setup? I'm looking to get my entire suspension redone and really like how your stance products look nice and beefy. How have they been holding up?

fast250sx · 07-10-2015, 06:00 PM

Thanks man. I drive it rather hard sometimes. I love my stance products. I definitely recommend them.
