Hi ek9.org!

img2012101300160.jpg
 
big respect for this build mate! attention to detail is second to none
look forward to seeing it go...deffo get some videos up when its done
 
these are my favourite build ups that have all the best parts and done the best way cant wait to see it finished!
 
Ok I know I've been quite distant!

Well she's finally home from the body shop, not bad not bad. I see a few things I'm going to have the shop fix but not bad.

I've got the Subaru to finish up since it's next for repaint, I'll finish the EK very soon.
 
So check this, I couldn't get a hold of the guy who usually does my aluminum welding this other guy talk so much talk about he's better well you know the whole boasting thing hmmmmm

I am sure I could do a better job with my soldering iron!

Also just went with the Hybrid a/c kit yea it's LHD but I'll "massage" it and make it work for RHD

Chicks love a/c:rolleyes:
 
Looks great man, so fresh. Quite a sleeper look about it. But why do people in body shops take it upon themselves to paint things that should be black, always bugs me, like your spoiler base lol.
 
my body shop did the same !!
he had to repaint it black again simple as that lol !

nice fresh look for the k9 tho !

I know right!!! That's exactly what they will have to change, just doesn't look right.
 
Nice build man!! Just a question, what did you do with the abs unit? I don't know to get rid of it or move it slightly over.
 
Ok guys! I do apologize I have been very sick and my father's Subaru took me quite a bit. With MS i have limited strength and energy at times....my car i can finish now even though my father's Subaru drained me.

Pics of my father's WRX clean up:

Hey Bro, it's not hard just remove the unit and run the 99 Civic Si brake proportioning block(46210-S04-902) use steel braided lines for the front brakes and brake master since the rear lines will screw right up to the block, positioned the same on the firewall.

You can purchase the lines from Summit Racing - Over 1.1 Million Auto Parts, Accessories, and More!

-AER-FBM2941 STEEL BRAKELINE ADAPTER x4
-EAR-63010122ERL -3 ST./ST. 22" HOSE x1 < Going to change to 90DEG. off the M/c
-EAR-63010132ERL -3 ST./ST. 32" HOSE x1
-EAR-63010140ERL -3 ST./ST. 40" HOSE x1
-EAR-63011732ERL -3 ST./90 DEG. 32" HOSE x1

Just remove it because it will make your life a whole lot easier, i purchased x2 headers hoping 1 will fit but nope. Save yourself the headache!

GoodLuck!
 
Thanks for all the support guys! It really fuels me to try harder regardless of how MS can cripple me at times.
