Weird looking airride:




Don't most airridekits regularly come with 'bagpipes'?

The rear uses aircylinders. This because of lack of space.

Gotcha ;) I never sold the car. Just stored it at the workshop until my motivation came back.

The roll-bar is removable. I split it and stuck it in the trunk when the roof is down.
And install it again when the roof is up ;)
Check earlier posts regarding this...

Long time since last update. I haven`t done anything since late 2005, but today I startet up this project again.










So.. what`s happening?
The next weeks I will do some big changes to this project.
- Motor-transplant (TurboDiesel engine)
- AirRide :D

I will receive my ariride within 2 weeks. I borrowed my friends airride today to check what I need to do for lowering the kit even more.













Removed the old engine today ...





I`ll keep you updated =)

Don't even think about NOT updating us. :)

After I removed the engine I started cleaning the gearbox. As you can see... It need some TCL :eek:



I have to take it somewhere else to wash it with hot, steamy water :)



Later today I am going to pick up my new engine. :D

Engine in da house...
Today I went to pick up my new engine. It`s a 1.6L turbocharged dieselengine. It`s completely rebuild and tuned ;)
Should be fun driving later this summer =)



I will not install the engine in the car before after the airride-installation.



I am going to modify the airride so I can drop the car to the ground.
This require some more modifications to make extra room for the driveshafts.



I am going to make two mods to the frontstruts. This will make them drop 35mm extra.
The rest of the extra drop is done by "lowering" the struttowers.



One of my friends visited me and he had something for me... the bra for my "dailydriver" =)
