F-Body Europe

Well since it's been down for the last 8 mos I've been doing odds and ends to get it right for when it's time to hit the road.

Solid mounts finally installed. Thanks to JC on the passenger side one. I wouldn't have done what he did. LOL
Carbon fiber LS1 lid, FRA, FTRA and Austin Super Scoop installed
Fuel lines being replaced w/ braided stainless steel and -AN fittings installed
AMW Oil catch can installed
Custom shift knob installed. White cue ball 2" in diameter w/ the "SRZ in Z28 font" sublimated. Gonna look sick.
MBA tb cover of the same style enroute
GMMG installed CME valence in my possession. Being painted as I type.
Fikse rims enroute.....FINALLY ARRIVED Sent 2 back however to get repaired. Somebody was asleep on the QC.
Michelin Sport's are here

Only thing left to do will be in the fall....for which I won't be here but in one of the Stan's. The good stan for us AF folks.

1.Engine bay painted (Completed)

2.Custom leather interior to the corbeau seats w/ houndstooth inserts, door panels a combo of both. I'm thinking of doing all the plastic panels in suede too to give it a rich quality feel.

3.Redoing the stereo as well courtesy of Jazzy91

4. Redoing the tint on the windows to 5%. Jazzy91

AND finally and most importantly since I will have some fall out $$$ the 9"! YES!!!!!!!!! NOT! On hold again another yr. See above post.

I'll be back on the road next yr though. I'm not coming out this yr. So have fun guys. I'm off to the US.

Silas,
Sounds like you've got it all coming together nicely!!! Can't wait to see it!!! Have you decided what gears to put out back in the 9in??
I finally went to the 4:11s after alot of debating. Now I'm glad I changed them. I only lost 5mph in each gear at redline but the acceleration is out of this world!!!!!

It'll be a 3.55 or 3.60 if they have it. W/ the tranny ratio I have now and the 3.73's in the back it's basically a 4.11 right now. I get out of the hole quick and it revs hella fast but my top end suffered a bit. In all reality I don't really care too much for the top end anymore because I always got to wipe bugs off and be concerned w/ rock chips.

It'll be a cruiser occassional strip/track car...esp when I returen to the US in 08'. My goal is to get it on the cover of GMHTP one of these days.

I hear ya, That was part of the reason I went with the 4:11s slow me down when I get back to the states.

Were are you goign to get the custom leather done at? I have been wanting to do something like that for a long time.

Jazzy91 up at Spang does it all pratically. That's my source.

Well I got the Catch can installed the fuel lines and tomorrow the GMMG goes on. I also did the driver side wire mod and will do the passenger this wkend. Still waiting on my rear valence to arrive so I can get painted and installed along w/ the CME tips.

Fikse haven't arrived yet though but hopefully I'll have before the EOM. They gave me a trackin number but it doesn't work.

What exhaust were you running Before the GMMG ?

Sergio I was running a Borla. Just needed something new and different.

PIcs no worky
