Thats hot, love the new look. Hope that shaved bay works out for you, Id be worried that it would crack :/

**kolio** · 01-21-2009, 01:36 PM

wow, that looks great!

**4g63lover** · 01-21-2009, 02:08 PM

The car looks great.

Not feeling the shaved bay though. How much weight did using all that bondo add??

I love the valve cover, it doesn;t even look like a Hyundai head.

oh dear

quite sexy

**4g63lover** · 01-21-2009, 05:37 PM

the nifty grille Dave is selling would look fucking nice with your set-up IMO.

Anyways, keep me updated on the turbo install I'm interested in what kind of cutting you need to do to the VR-G for a front mount.

looking good so far man.

get yourself a hyperground kit and run all your ground wires to it and then ground it somewhere out of sight so that you dont have to sand that fresh paint in the engine bay down to bare metal.

yea the bondo in reality didnt add that much weight maybe like 5lbs not even
hense thats why its called lightweight body filler lol and it shouldnt crack it wasnt just bondo i wen thru all the steps i do this for a living i pretty much gaurantee it will not crack theres long strand filler and short strand filler under the bondo too strong as fuck lol and you will like the engine bay better when the motor is in lol

**greddy** · 01-21-2009, 08:30 PM

That looks great!

I dont know what type of resources you have available to you, but I bet you wanna keep that engine bay looking perfect. If you have access to a lift, I would drop the subframe out of the car, get the motor and tranny bolted up to the subframe and using the lift, lower the car over the motor and tranny.

This will prevent you from damaging that fresh body work in the engine bay. I have had my motor out 7+ times and I have never ever been able to put it in thru the top without something hitting the inside of the engine bay and scratching it up.

Hey if you paid for your 35R already but the shop hasnt gotten them in yet, consider cancelling the 35R and going with a Precision HP6262. Its less money than a 35R (new vs new) spools faster than a 35R and makes power like a 37R. Do some research on EVOM, give it a another month or two and the 35R ll be a thing of the past.
