I haven't really posted anything about my '93 but Ill start with the pics i have from this winter. I got the motor and trans back in tonight after a couple months of work. I still have a little bit to do, mainly wiring related, and I need new fuel injectors and she'll be ready to fire up. Here are a few crappy cell phone pics of the progress. I will get some better pictures when its all together and running

This is the only good picture I have of the car right now

I get them from work, how many pin do you need? I can get from 2 on up, mine is a 37 pin and that is about the biggest round one they have then they go rectangular.

And Eric tell cam Ill be ready for him. I didn't blow it up, but it sure was a costly miss shift. Looking back at it if I would have sent the head out to be checked I could have probably made it to the manual run off last year though :(... O well its a new year and were starting fresh lol

Yea thats total BS. But I can guess the outcome of the 6000lb wagon vs the 3000lb shell.

I think both shells will be under 3k. I will just be lacking power compared to both vehicles. I'm just a lil stock turbo car.

Super clean and tons of high-quality parts! Quite the rarity in 1G's nowadays. Are you going to be tuning with Link, AEM or what? Also, what are the specs on the longblock?

Thanks that's what everyone keeps sayin, its running on AEM, and the motor is just a built 2.0l, Mahle pistons eagle rods and crank, the head is mildly ported 1g head with supertech valves and gsc cams springs and retainers

Well I had some issues still left over from last season. I finally diagnosed it to a cam sensor, swapped it out and it was back to running 100% again. I have about 80 miles on it right now still running good, Ive done a few pulls and feels strong. Im waiting to get some more 110 and turn the boost up and hit the track. Im working on a camera mount to get a video and I should have pictures before the end of the week from the car show last saturday.

brent you should do e85, that 110 is going to cost you this year. and its such a hassle to get 5 gallon jugs and its just not a happy feeling cruising around knowing your paying $8 a gallon

I'd love to do e85, and I'm going to, when I save up some money. I need about $800. This last 10 gallons is the last 110 I'm getting.
