So where dis?

Scroll up Car was crashed and repaired the best it could be but still was never the same so I gave it to my friend Dom and he recently sold it off to some Asian kid in San Diego, don't know his name sadly I'd love to see where it is now...

How in the world do u get that bolt back on its almost impossible on my 300e

Probably because you have aircon vehicles and I don't
So your aircon fans are in the way I guess?

YAAAAASSSSS headlight fix!!

Dont forget that there should also be an 8mm screw on the side to keep it in place. Otherwise your brand new plastic clip will die at the fist speedbump you come across

......I was over the car and the frame damage wasn't going to work out for me.....

[190Evan]

Donated the car to Dominic with the wrapped bagged 202 and I'm glad to say it's in good hands, I was over the car and the frame damage wasn't going to work out for me seeing as it was my only car and I'm moving at the end of this month. BUT I picked up an SC300 and I'll be posting up pics of that thing soon and probably making a build thread if I feel like it.

Yo I didn't came here in a while, see you put the ambers back on

Euro headlights looks so much cleaner man! And starting to love these wheels on the 124 chassis.

I'm finishing school on tuesday, and I can relate when you say funds are going to increase.

UPDATE YO

Today is my very last day of high school and basically that means I will now be able to start working 40+ hour weeks and really raking in some dough. This is the real start of this build. I was finally able to source some H$'s and now have real bright headlights, went with the low power xenon bulbs and could not be happier with the quality. Also Loekaaz I already broke one of the retainers but I'm still in search of a bolt that I can use to replace the clip and 8mm that hold it up next to the radiator. Anyways here's some pics for ya guy I did a few little things.



Finally got my coils installed and I almost maxed them after this pic and for some reason it's not going that low, have a feeling it has to do with my upgraded swaybar being installed not upside down, So I am going to either flip it or convert to a 300e swaybar. The ride is AMAZING with these on though and I have had no issues.

Had to wait an hour for a tow truck to come grab me from my school and I'm glad I decided to get it towed because when I got to the alignment shop they told me my "eyeball" alignment had me at .4 and 4.3 degrees of toe in on the left and right, ridiculous I know.



On my way back from the alignment shop, the car has NEVER felt this good and smooth to drive and accelerates better than ever.



So after removing the adapters and running wobble bolts I removed as much camber as possible and still am at 12 degrees on both sides. Which is crazy because I removed a LOT of camber so I'd say it was safe to say I was at about -22 easily before. I can't wait to get the front frame fixed, wheels mounted and lower it all around about 2.5 more inches and get it re-aligned. So stoked.



Little booty pic for all my late night lovers (It's on a hill that's why it looks uneven.)



The color is starting to grow on me but I really want some thing that pops and is out there, maybe 70's marlboro livery? Who knows that's all in months to come. Anyways, till next time SW friends.
