Marc's Sedan Daily Drift Building Adventure

i have a few pics of the interior work i did, but im tired and lazy and not overly in the mood to describe every pic but any questions i'll answer!

[magular]

i personally think its worth doing. not very expensive. under 100$ and the interior is brought back up 20 years compared to that old fabric.

and yes i did do the other pillars as well. but i might redo them all for something maybe more....patterned. lol. but ill leave the headliner, since that wasnt very easy to do around the sunroof control panel and it doesnt get dirty black which is good kuz i pile 8 tires in the back seat till it reaches the roof haha

i like the look of that... what was the spray you used?
i bought some suede for my interior as well but wasn't sure what adhesive would be best...

[magular]

i used 3M... to be honest it works great if your going over a previous fabric for example the head liner... but the pillars didnt work. now 2 years later and it un-stuck itself. im only using a spay can, but i heard after i did mine theirs something that works better but i cannot remember which one is was. but i think the 3M also has difference variations of it. i think i used the "75" rated and theirs a "90" if im not mistaken. but if you could get contack cement in a spay then that would be better then anything in the world lol.

but my headliner still looks brand new, second problem with front pillars they get exposed to the sun and faded colour like crazy which is why im also redoing them. so hopefully the suede you bought is better quality then mine, maybe more so an "exterior" use type of suede.

but with the spray you go on way across the whole surface, wait till dry, then do the whole surface in opposite direction, and same procedure on the piece its going on, then wait a good 5min after the second coat (dry to touch) then apply the fabric over the piece your covering. thats how it was for me and worked good.

if their was any corners that were really tricky then i bought a very quick dry glue to dab where the corners wornt staying down.

so i got the turbo on buttttttt i can only get 1 bolt on. fml. honestly im really starting to hate this manifold and the problems its causing. its like they made it all without thinking about leaving room for bolts... realy frustrating when theirs no room to do anything.

if anyone has tips im all ears. here's where the progress is so far...

so technically its together but theirs 1 bolt to the manifold and 1 to the dump pipe. anyways the probly is the bolts are too long to slide in the hole on the exhaust side of the turbo. because the where the dump pipe bolts up to, theirs a ridge that sticks out over the hole and theirs isnt enough room on an angle to slide the bolt in. if this is too confusing ill take a pic of what im trying to say.

but i cant cut them because they need to be long enough to reach the nut past both flanges, a gasket, a washer, lock washer, and the nut.

btw the manifold holes are threaded and so are the bolts, so the bolts thread in without needing a bolt, but is that going to be good enough by itself if i were to cut the bolt so it pulled the turbo tight using the manifold flange threads?

let me know if u have ideas or tricks to try

Im about to purchase a 92 Gts4 4door and this excites me cars looking good!

[magular]

couple pics of today.

sucks that nothing in this pic is how it will be when she's all done... sooo much left to do. but atleast their is some progress being made even though im loosing all my motivation





and trust me, the stance isnt set up... it will be much more flush and better fitting then that. just need custom arms and different tires/spacers. and i need sideskirts still and rear diffuser.... it never really ends does it? well enjoy pics of a someday awesome looking sedan

I send you a pm to get your coilover spec you sended to BC for future reference if I decided to go that route. Didnt got a response yet :S looking foward too.

[magular]

dont worry i'll let you know man. i thought i had sent you a big message explaining everything. but i'll explain again..

[Jermaine]

Need more updates.

[magular]

dude i wish, i think im on break with this thing... i pulled the steering rack out but thats the only new thing, waiting on some custom fab parts to be done, like my manifold is getting studs welded in and extending my AMS camber arms to reach 0 camber. and waiting on new mishimoto rad, waiting on new front tie rods since mine are too short for the custom knuckles...

sorry man. and i need to buy all my snowboarding gear this month and snowboard pass and a car in october so my car will be not progressing much....

but in the winter it will come together for sure.
