So, the Z on hold for a bit until this is back on the road. Not completely though... The conponents for the tube bender are almost finished.

is this from plans off the net or are you designing and making your own? keen to see this 'build' too please

2jz forester.

Do it.

Believe me, I've thought of many different engine scenarios, including various V8's... but I really don't want to put any money whatsoever into the Forester. It's a daily driver... It handles and looks right, and thats good enough for now. If I had unlimited funding it'd be another story, but given I'm a mere mortal I will put everything I have into the Z.

The plans we're using for the bender are from the site below. We've modified the design somewhat, but its more or less as you see it. We've spoken to Frank (the creater of the original) and he says he's bent .25" wall tubing with it, so it will do everything we'll ever need from it and then some. If any one wants to build there own I can send all of the prints for it. Or even build one, either way.

Took off some of the accesories today in order to get a jump on removing the motor, and found this.

Again, not exactly the car I had planned on working on.... a bump in the road. The fun will start up again in a few weeks.
In the mean time, anyone have any AMG 3 pc. wheels they care to get rid of??

[TeckniX]

You can probably pick up another ej for that thing on the cheap. Drop it in and drive it agin, then focus on the damn z!!

I still keep coming back specifically for this build and your updates.

Sorry about the DD, it's frustrating when they give out for sure.

I had an 1986 European imported 190E AMG w/ the 2.3 16v cosworth engine and getrag gear box for a while... it was fun and ended up selling it to the guy who originally imported it back in the early 90's.

This is madness!

So pumped for this build^^

madness?

I apologize for the lack of updates on the Z as of late. The Forester meltdown has required some attention shifting.
However.... we have been able to put in a bit of work into the 7 now that the weather permits fibergass work. Take a peak over on our other thread:

And then there's this guy:

Wheels are already on the way. Think CLK GTR. The white is also going. Think Black. of course:-)

[Lof8]

In for updates. Incredible concept.

A few shots from the evening. A little intercooler modification action. More aluminum to come... then this car is gone.
