I bet you could even sell your stock I6 and fund the whole thing...

It's always been in my plan to do a ls1 swap with a big heavy duty GM trans. I think what I'll do is sell the style 5's to get a daily, and stash this at my shop for a while until the time comes. I have an '01 ram truck that needs work sitting behind my shop in the weeds that I could drive until the time comes.

Thanks for the nice words! Converted to struts in the rear as opposed to the original SLS, and cut what I remember to be 1.5 coils on the rear.

Very unique build, I like it!

Okay I figured it out. Figured I'd pick up where I left off. Spent the last 2 years building a handful of cars but keeping my eye out for a new, nicer cat to build. Ended up coming across a very clean '93 with 115k on it and made the purchase. Lowered it, substantially to say the least, and now I'm looking to save up some money before I dive much deeper in to it.

so.... how is the money saving going?

I need some inspiration. Because just across the border, in Germany there are two XJ's for sale with manual trannies...


I repeat:


with manual trannies

Hello yes buy one or both 5 speed XJ40's are extremely hard to come by and the auto trans's aren't that good so a manual is all the better.

Money saving is going bad. But updates exist. More to come once it gets warmer out, as always. Mounted a vintage set of Enkei 24's that I've been sitting on for a while with 195/50/15's

Thanks dudes. It's laying control arm in the rear so I'll be experimenting with a few sets of springs I have from other builds. I believe I have a pair of Mercedes diesel front springs that I can use on the rear of this to stiffen it up a lot as well as raise it a smidge back there.

wow those wheels look unbelievably good on there. Nice work, I think I like this better than your old one.

Okay so a while ago I was on the Internet and came across a dodge shadow ES and thought that it had a bitchin spoiler on it. I ended up finding said shadow ES equipped with said bitchin spoiler in a junkyard and scooped it for 20 bucks. The geometry and dimensions couldn't be better, hopefully I'll paint it and mount it shortly along with a lot of other things.
