My S197 Project build thread

[Matt D]

well It's been a while since Ive updated this thread, just been lazy to load the pics. Lets start this $%*! back up again


Put some agent 47 race mirrors on the car, Painted just the outter sides to match the paint.


Put this sticker in the drivers mirror

My bogart 15" rims in the back ground, with my Fx1 pro suade seats, and seat belts (still have to install these)

Heres some bullitt's I was trying on

Holy parts batman! So these are the parts I put on last week. Race craft k-member kit, Kooks long tubes with off road X, Baer replacment rotors (I put a mac catback on too just forgot to throw it in the pic)

 

[Matt D]

Here is some brief pics of the install, I didn't take to many mainly because I just wanted to get it done lol..

Painted the calipers gloss back

I have to adjust the axle back still , I could hold the mufflers properly and tighten them by my self at the same time

Just some pics I took outside two days ago. This car is a vampire lol first time its seen sun since Oct

I added the "Dasilva edition" sticker on the calipers and clear coated them. This is how it came out

Thats all for now

Do you know how wide of a tire you can run with sportlines on 18x10?

not sure... i will be running 15x10's with a 26x11.5" wide et street.

I would assume at least a 285 or 295 on a 18x10

Any particular reason you chose those seats? I am looking for some seats now, and those aren't too bad for 20lbs and $300 each. Would appreciate some pics when you install those.

That's a good shot! All you need are some clear corners on there.

There actually 16 lbs each lol, There not that expensive, they are comfy as hell, the suade makes it look like a million bucks and there quaility is amazing. Can't go wrong

Here is some better pics, and the back is all nice gloss black

 

[Matt D]

by the way, its offical... I will be at the nmra race june 13th @ milan

Superstang class here I come lol, O and I am making a mission to white castle again lol since there is none in canada. Last time I was in Detroit I must of at at least 30 of those burgers in two days

 

[NastyStang113]

I really like the gloss black backs !!

 

[usmcpony]

yes. It only weighed like 2-3 pounds when I put it all in a pile but the reason I did it was I wanted to paint it all nice when I gutted the trunk and it would look bad if I had painted over the deadning

Do you think you added 3 or more pounds of paint? Just something to consider. If you like flat black you could paint the car that color and save over 50 pounds of paint and clear coat lol.
