True2Blue

Dave said it arrived. Thank you much. Were working on gettin all the loose ends tied up as far as the whole project goes. What fork/hardware is supposed to be used with the housing? As far as shift fork.. I started to read through the thread but I'm at work on my iPod and my eyes are bad so it's a slow task

You've pretty much seen it unless you wanna see it under the car... The drop brackets are being made for the front axle right now and the coils are ordered and were awaiting delivery. The bell housing for the w series yota tranny to ej engine arrived a few days ago. There is more to come once the drop brackets are cut and installed the links will get bolted up and pics will be on order. I know I'm a lol over due for pics

thanks for the input zap

thats what most lean towards. do you know if there is modification needed to fit it in a 4.10 diff?

I've been reading up on the yota fourms and there's a debate between 4.56 and 4.88 what would you (everyone) run with 33's?

Dave told me from the beginning this would be done before I got home, just so were on the same Page. I don't mind if it takes longer. His wife keeps pulling the we have a contract line tho. But I'm with you on the creation takes time I'm just tryin to get him all the parts he needs to get this bad boy done I've been trickling parts in... I'm not tryin to rush you man I shoulda stayed in school longer I tend to over look things. I was just sayin I'll have the shipping money to you soon I get paid every wednesday. My days here feel like weeks a day goes by and I'm scattered tryin to remember what to do what I forgot to order and what not 16 hour days kill my brain

See I didn't know man the dollar amount was never stated before or after the order. I'll send you some money you should recieve the payment by 11pm tuesday Thanks for the reply bill I can't wait to get that housing bolted up

whats the status on the shipment?

I got a good job offer and ive sold all of my subaru's cause times were hard. I have the chance to do it big so im taking it. Thanks for the positive feedback. I'll post pics as they come in. I can't wait to leave this hot rump roast desert 120 everyday is okay but at 80% humidity?! Nah lol

Posters please keep negative comments to a minimum. Read the post to see why it's up in the first place. I'm doing everything the way I am cause I want to simple as that, I hope that clears up all future questions as to why I'm doing this project. The torsion setup is cheap and easy it's also faster call me lazy I don't care I know what's up. This project will be complete at 10-11k then the interior will be modified why? Cause I want to. The engine mods or possible swap will be decided once I get home and start my high performance powertrains courses at wyotech.

yea after i coat the innards it will be the last thing done

Hey bill do you have a sticker or decal or even a logo one could put on their car? the subaru will be done next month:banana:

36's! thats extreme are you runnin 4.10's? i was lookin at 33's.. whats your ground clearance?

i am absolutely stoked i cant wait to see my subaru.. estimated 30" of clearance this adapter will allow it to sit on its own and ill have pics once it does.. its on the frame right now.. anyways i cant wait to get mine bill your a lifesaver i hope all is well.

oh yea.. gotta get the car done here soon hopefully ill be home in june

repost the pics they are all gone? (if you dont mind me asking that is)

i can front 1k if it will help... i would do 2k but the subaru build is suckin up a good chunk outta my paychecks in at $5500 this month:eek: if my next invoice is 1k and below i can do another 1000 (i get paid weekly) this week and next week are already spent so the 11th maybe? let me know

Whats the status update? My fab guy just about has the frame done and he needs me to get the adapter for cross-member mounting reasons Is there a prototype made up? (mellow?) Something i can barrow so he can finnish my frame till the adapters are ready or anything along those lines? a Rental? idk ive bought: DOM for all linkage hem joints metal for the frame misc metal for axle truss support and misc mounting tabs next is shocks but i need the adapter so i can have him mount the tranny and get the cross-members tacked in and weld up the pivot points for the 4 link.... anyways just checkin in. hanks guys ~Kody

this money is burning a hole in my pocket

i got the cash right now send one to my fab guy he will mount it up for a good testing
