Your ride as it sits today

[JustaGT]

I know a lot of people have their cars torn apart and are undergoing the winter mods and figured it would be cool to see how everyone's car is currently sitting. If you don't mind post up a pic of the winter progress!

Currently mine is on stands awaiting new shoes. Other than that not a whole lot other than the typical cleaning and few minor mods.

Strongly considering having Efab in Norwalk making me a new catch can. Then running two -10an lines directly to the can and eliminate the Y fitting.

Thanks! Just moved into this one earlier this year. Had a 60x100 for the past few years but was an uninsulated Quanza building and was either -30 or 120 degrees in there and a lot of extra unused space. Sucked to be able to only work in the shop comfortably for 3 months out of the year. Just finished up the new 40x60 and love it!

What coil brackets are those? Are you making your own, or modifying some existing ones to fit around your down pipe?

I also see your lines to your heater core have been recirculated, no heat, no street car

[Phish]

The ones in the picture i made. I had to condense the coils and move them forward since i welded in the bungs for the catch can. However, I am not a fan of how they turned out. I mean they are ok, but i just am not a fan of them. I will be making another set with a few changes and most likely out of aluminum once i get the turbo kit wrapped up.

[Clinical]

Sitting in the school parking lot at the moment. Gotta love all that salt and grime residue... can't wait to get out of class today and wash it, even though it's just going to freeze.
http://i41.tinypic.com/14m822e.jpg


Go figure last night it was still 45 degrees in Burlington and fairly nice out when I took this after washing it. Then the trip to cedar falls which usually takes me 2 1/2 hours-3 hours took me 5 hours due to the snow storm. Did 25mph-30 on 218 all the way from Iowa City to Center Point. Then got ahead of the pack a bit and chanced fate at 50mph the rest of the way.

i dont need a build thread. theres no building going on.

good question...where is that darn harness?

[JustaGT]

nice garage. storage above the ceiling ?

No, just a lot of insulation haha. I'll snap a few pics next time I am out there (I currently live in Ames but the shop is in Melbourne)

Overall its a 40x60 with 2 overhead doors, 1 overhead door leads to a 24x24 area that is walled off for cold storage, the other door leads to the heated part of the shop where the car, all the tools, and welding area is. Works out pretty slick

[Domestic Disturbance]

My Cadillac is a shelf in storage. My truck just got an LBZ turbo mouthpiece sunday. Waiting for an OBD2 cable and efi goes on!

Stock LLY turbo mouthpiece vs LBZ. I was very skeptical but it made a noticable change in throttle response, and is good for 2.5mpg's all day. And it'll hit 25psi much quicker. Maybe go for 15.9 this year.

Here is mine. This spring in an effort to eliminate an annoying throw out bearing noise I am taking the driveline apart so she will be getting a new clutch and flywheel as well as gears and hopefully lowered and new set of shoes.

Where my truck sat today, made 313/293 through a locked converter.

Time to throw on the spray and wait for the trans to let go.

I couple friends and i were watching your truck getting loaded up on the dyno. We couldnt figure out whose/what truck it was. We never did figure it out. However, later on in the day when i saw/talked to you i put two and two together. I am curious to see what it does on the spray.

not exactly today but the other night I took pics when I went to George Wyth for some riding.
