duckits EG8...Small update 3/11/13

- Thu Jan 17, 2013 3:03 am #324283 Well, shortly after the girlfriend and I found out we were having a daugher, i decided it was time for me to pick up a sedan.

the day i got it.

Image

I havent done a whole lot to it. Beast7 build, a6 cam/y7 cam gear, I/H/E, and i have a z6 manifold to throw on still.
I purchased some new tires a few days ago. Also installed a b&m short throw, along with a blox knob. put a new fender on the car, then got hit the next day, then had to buy ANOTHER new fender lol. Also installed clear corners.

heres a picture of how it sits now.

It needs a few little things, but i drive about 65 miles a day, and need to keep it reliable. Id like to do a stock LS swap, and just drive it.

Have it all torn apart right now installing the manifold, and also doing a timing belt and water pump to it.

Also, finally got rid of this the digusting green VC the PO had painted. Wrinkle red, im going to be polishing the letters when i get to my die grinder at work.

Shifter extender came in a couple weeks ago. Feels nice on the b&m.

And also, picked this up a couple weeks ago. Welded it on already, ill get pics of it soon.
