Been awhile, figured I'd update this.
Had the black coupe done for a few months, enjoyed it every day. Took it too a local drift event and met an unfortunate end.
Hit a bump in the track, washed out front end grip and mollywhopped a k rail.
Pushed the drivers strut tower out about 3/8 inch back and upwards.. learned my lesson on building a tough ass bash bar with no crush points.
Being as the car had been frame pulled before I ever got it, im wary about dumping the cash to pull it and rebuild the front end.
Did tubs and some other work to 2 240s after I moved into my new house!
So I picked up this car earlier thiss year.
Had a 3tc in it, had bad rings in 2 cylinders. And the whole csr was pretty much in need of a rebuild.. bought it a fun car for the year and ended up being a totally new project.
Found out it had tons more rust than I had anticipated, and was up in the air about fixing it or cutting the front end off and replacing it onto my old black coupe. Just couldn't talk myself into it so Ive been cutting and replacing panels the last few weeks and will eventually get the chassis back to a presentable drivable form!
I rebuilt the 3tc and sold it to a friend for his 86 hatch, and picked up another ca18det with cams, turbo, nistune, forged internals and some other goodies for a deal.
It's already tore down to get the pistons ceramic coated and a frssh gasket set along with paint.
Hoping to have it ready for next sEason, got alot of long nights ahead.
Talking with stance and tf works to get true rear coilovers going for the 86 chassis, hope that comes thru!
