Indeed! Car is about ready to go to the paint shop.

We are about to move into a new location as well.
Good times...

blu808 · 01-30-2009, 08:41 PM

Hi everyone. Time for another update. The car is at the paint shop getting some pro quality work done.

They are primer filling the entire car and blocking the entire car for a perfectly straight finish.

Here are some teaser shots.

The car should be painted early next week (feb-09).

Thanks to everyone for your patience. We have also moved into a new shop location in Campbell, CA. Expect many more projects in the future.

Also complete project build ups on our new website.

Blu808 - Performance Engineering and Innovation

Thanks.
Luke

This evening, I dropped off some accessories for the car and wanted to see the overall progress. Since I had my camera in hand, i decided to take some pictures and update the build thread for everyone's enjoyment. I have to say, the process has been long, but i know its totally worth the wait. Enjoy the pictures:

Very impressive project! I was actually thinking about building something like this over the winter

onehundredoctane · 04-24-2009, 02:03 PM

wow. great work.

PoorMans180SX · 04-24-2009, 02:14 PM

Is it just me or are all nice S30's daytona blue?

Please tell me that's not the factory black finish on that intake manifold. It's going to flake off and negate all that lovely work.

Everything else looks super fresh though. I want to see it done.

blu808 · 04-24-2009, 06:34 PM

Thanks.

That is the factory paint on the intake manifold.

kouki2g0 · 04-26-2009, 03:13 PM

Dude you're car almost looks like mine but your suspension setup is nice.
