Mac,
did you have to get new dampers/shocks in the front or were they OK?

 

[macninja77]

Shad said if i remeber corectly the strut is the same for the front 91-05 i may be wrong i dont remeber but i am using a 92 strut hey shawn i need pics of the abs system i got a bunch of lines just need some pics to reassemble it without guessing where the lines go. Shoot me the email pics to [email protected]. And man i screwed up yesturday i mixed some freaking clear with reducer instead of hardner this morning the hood on the lexus was still wett. Ahhhhhh fucllllllkkkkkkksssskkksks

 

[shawn110975]

they are different, when they went T- the springs are harder vs softer on the coupes. it will work though. I have 1 rear passengerside thats perfect for the 2004. let me know.

also I cant take pics till monday I will go the paint shop and snap some.

the 2002 is in pieces right now.

I think i need adapters

 

[shawn110975]

Mac do you do your own painting or do you have someone else do it?

if you do your own painting your considered a " Jack of all Trades "

nice work, If I knew how to paint I would have been done with my 04 already LOL

also is that the pride V1 or V2? I have the V1 which you wanted to buy from me. are you doing this to tease me

 

[macninja77]

V1 pimp and yes i paint my own stuff

 

[macninja77]

Anyone have some f430 mirrors they wanna sell

 

[macninja77]

Home made adapters couldn't wait

 

[shawn110975]

The car that Shawn picked up was on CL for close to 2 years .

 

[shawn110975]

Yeah I know, the guy told me he has sold hundred of wrecked NSX's
he usually rips out the trans and engine and then crushes them for scrap aluminum

so all those parts he crushes, seats, door handles, radios its sad.

 

[macninja77]

pics more pics i had to paint the car in open area to many pieces to paint booth not big enough gonna rub the car regardless just better to paint everything at once so color match is perfect

 

[shawn110975]

its looking so good man. great job.

I wish I knew how to paint would save me thousands in the years to come.

Very nice, looks like some of the pics either your pressure is too low or to high, some variables are with the type of clear. High solids usually gives me this problem. Nothing a water bug or a mirka bulldog and elbow grease can't rub out. Keep up with the updates glad to see a DIYer.
