EJ1 Coupe from hell

By EJ1_Jado
- Mon Oct 03, 2011 8:00 am #275886 K so I'm new to the forum as of today and I decided to use this forum as a place to display my work! My coupe was picked up off a buddy for $500 as a rolling shell with a d-series trans.

My plans is to do a daily driver that functions also as my weekend warrior...
Shes rough but not a single bit of rust!

- Tue Oct 04, 2011 9:50 pm #276212 thanks everyone! yeah it is hella ruff but ive seen worse! im kinda where i wanna be with it starting as its nearly stripped down and im goin with full race interior...
figured that a clean painted cabin was the cheapest route that would look good and be functional!
If anyone has any advice on either tucking or deleting all the wiring that runs throughout the floorboard i would be hella grateful!

I used teal's build thread like my bible but also know a thing or 3 myself am always happy to offer advice if you need it.

What sort of plans do you have for engine and suspension???
