STAGE 4: Phase 2 '"More tube chassis work"'

Okay guys it's that time again.. Now I tried to plan for my weekly updates to be about a month behind where I am actually at, but it seems like that is not going to be the case anymore.. With that being said the next weeks post should be only a week behind me and might catch up to me, if that is the case I will still try to update every week with something..





Okay let's jump into it.. I decided this week I would show case one of the beers I like from my local spot. Its from BJs Restaurant & BrewHouse, they always have there in house season beer on tap and man oh man are they good. This one is there White Beer that taste amazing,,



Okay we are trying to finish up the front tube chassis. And Russell is working on the ducting for the Radiator.



I think it is turning out pretty damn sick if you ask me..



Also sorry for all the cell phone pic, I accidentally left my camera at home so had to use my I-phone.. So sorry for the crappy pics..



Closer look at ducting... yup that is a broom,,lol



Here are the new bumper brackets...



Also I decided to remove that damn ABS system completely. Going to run all new brake line and run lines to my new ASD hydro..



Also started working on removing all the OEM harness and dash.



And let me just say all that harness and extra brackets weighed a lot. I swear all the OEM harness weighs about 40lbs..



Also got rid of all the damn metal behind the seat that used to hold the speakers and cubby holes. And man was that some extra weight I did not need, that was another 30-40lbs.

And why I'm I getting rid of all this stuff you ask?



Getting ready to have my full custom FD Spec cage installed...



Its going to be one intense cage and I just can't wait to have this finished up..

Okay that is it for now, sorry for so little pics but like I said forgot my damn camera. Also the post are going to be kind of random from now, jumping from front tube chassis and cage work.

Hope you guys like..

Next week STAGE 4: Phase 3 '"Cage work and a little tube chassis work"'

SIZE="3"]STAGE 4: Phase 3 '"Cage work and a little tube chassis work"' [/SIZE]



Okay it is that time again folks. Let's start it off right with some damn good beer. Beer of choice is Maui Brewing Co. 'CoCoNut Porter,' and damn this is a really good beer, brewed with 6 varieties of malted barley, hops and hand-toasted coconut. Def a good beer..



BAM!!!! look at my new jungle gym... Russell has out done himself with this cage and I just love it..



Have to have some good door bars, cause you never know what can happen..



Since I have these door bars, you can say good by to my door panels.. Going to replace with some Carbon Fiber love.



Love it..



The view from the back is what got me. It just looks so intense:JAMIN:



Damn sexy!!







Russell really has done a good job with this cage and front tube chassis I would recommend him any day of the week..





Next on the cage is pretty much doing the base plates and the front part but looks good now...



Damn that is money!!!!



I was really glad that the door bars came out good. Was scared my big *** would not fit... but its all good..



Looking good





plenty of room...



Back to the front,, looks good all put together. This is not my hood but pretty close to hit, I will have the 07 TS hood in its place.. but looks good so far..



Close up of the Ducting that Russell did, looks clean.. Now should I keep that ducting Silver or paint it??



Close up of the bumper brackets,, Look at that sexy weld...



Welded up my other -20AN fitting



Clearance looks good..



Clearance looks spot on.. this is where my PS cooler is going to go..



Looking good, we still have to do the Plywood splitter so it will look pretty good with that installed.. Can't wait



Before I left I spotted this big *** turbo in a Civic pushing somewhere around 1000HP+ so crazy..



Also found Russell WRX on the dyno getting ready for this weekend Lone Star Drift series.. **** is a monster...

If you guys would like work done by Russell hit him up on his fabricated Facebook Page: HERE


Next I will have some totals up, cause some parts have come in.


NEXT WEEK: STAGE 4: Phase 4 '"Cage work and some part love"'
