haha started building my car after the accident

[3xtr3m3]

Found a new home for my wrx parts. The rear frame got bent and lifted after the accident. I don't have $7000 to pay body shop to fix it so cheap way; DIY (Do it yourself)

Shell + rear bumoer = $750
Rear trunk lid =$150
Painting Don't know yet


I don't know how long this will take me. Working full time and shorter days are a big down on this project.

First day i stripped the interior, today i almost finished drive train.

Next will be rest of the drive train and engine removal :))

Took some pics :

WoW that's one big ass project, good luck with that, hope you know how to put those back together. =P haha

Wiring is a bitch to work with. That's the only thing that bothers me.

i tried and ultimatly failed (thank god not at a loss) the same thing with a 1983 Porsche 944

the putting shit back together and making it work is a BBIITCCCCHHHH

(i got it to work but then the engine turned out to need heavy work and the rear bearings were shot, yada yada i just got rid of it)

Ohh and Extreme,

one word of advice, from what i understand you're going to be swaing your old silver parts into the blue frame

since you have the blue frame in the condition that it is in, i would (if you could afford it) seam-weld the entire frame, and then paint that biatch before throwing junk back inside...

its overkill but if you ever decide to race it competetabily that will be some serious chassis reinforcement right there.

fucking epic spelling failure.. fuck it.

 

[omission]

Fu%K no! Not for me, i sooner take a bank loan. Good luck buddy.

I am going to do sound deadening and under coating before i put the parts in. If i had a welding machine i could do seam welding since i have welding experience from before. I will check with couple friends if they could find me a portable one :)

My powertrain and drivetrain works fine. I just have to put everything back together properly.

Awesome dude! You gotta have some balls or experience to take on that project; good luck and let us know how it turns out.

 

[td|35mm]

Well ... good luck turkish :).
That's one ass of a project!!!

 

[B.From.Acc]

wow, what a big undertaking, good luck.. the reward of getting it all back together again would be pretty satisfying. since i don't even know how to take a dash apart.

 

[Ba Chicka Wa Wa]

Can we start a TD poll with a prize for a guess on how many parts and screws will be left over when he puts it back together?

........hmmmmmmmmm where were these supposed to go?

 

[TD|night blade]

The new TD car show with Turksih on tonight!, shit man that's nuts, best of luck, make a vid if you have a chance of the work.

 

[Spinny]

That's a wholllle lot of wiring... damn... I would just wrap the wires around my neck and end it before having to deal with all that shit lol

That's awesome that you chose to rebuild.

My ex-biatch burned my toyota pu to the ground in my driveway. the only thing that was salvageable was the engine. I acquired another body and rebuilt that shit. it wasn't so easy but in the end i had that rig for another 4 yrs. and with all the mods i did, it was a badd mutha. to date it was my favorite rig. Wiring is a bitch but it's really easy. take your old harness and just plug and go. make sure you use all the old ecu and engine and it will all be compatible. Good luck. :)
