I agree with the CLK front end suggestion. It would make your wagon one of a kind in looks too.

Are you sure you want your expensive wheels on there for all of this work? Definately make sure they come off when they spray, even the covers they put on them won't keep them completely clean. I know from experience, but at least I was able to polish mine out... I don't know about your CF finish...

Well, I have no idea....And if that is the case, the painter will have to pay for new ones...Easy as that.. But thanks for your concern!

Looks beautiful Mido. Really like how they painted inside the doors and engine bay as well. That's always the quick way to tell whether it was a quality paint job or not. :-)

It's spring. I want to see the 700hp engine.

Hooleyboy had his project going like BOOM BOOM BANG within month or two to get into 11s. This project needs to speed up a bit.

I want to see the 700hp engine. Thanks for the updates!

Guys sorry, I have some bad news that I just received...Don't know if the car will be ready for me 30th April.... SCRAM is waiting for rods, (I think this is the name in English), from USA. They promised delivery time of 2 weeks, they are now up in 4 weeks!!

The worst part is that if I don't get the car in April/May when I'm home, I will not se it until next time I'm home....In July/August!!!!

At the moment I'm Not a happy guy!!!

Will keep all of you posted on the developments!

Ah, the world of modification, setbacks are normal. Whats more important is having it all buttoned up and running right in the end

It will be well worth the wait, but I agree it sucks to get pumped up and then told something different. Like no gifts on christmas kind of feeling.

From the little detail and pictures of your engine build I have a feeling this is gonna be one of my favorite builds

That's the second largest IC I have ever seen

A friend of mine races, aka road races, a Supra and his IC is the size of a LARGE office desk.

Keep up the GREAT work MIDO, we are all pulling for her, well atleast on the dyno

See yeah
