thought I would share my trailer park rally car project for you nukkas. Its supossed to be my winter beater for this year but its taking too much time Who knew a awd hatch would be so much work :  Its been converted to mpfi, swaped a d16 in, put the cable shifted awd trans and welded the trans mount in, put the wagovans tunnel in for more driveshaft and exhaust room. Next weekend is rear diff time, and yes it will be turbo before it comes out >   [/quote] mpfi swap  :X  fuckin big pics  spent the weekend building these, holy fuck was that alot of work to keep the alighnmnet in check,many changes bolting them on and off not many pics because I was really cramped for time to get it off the hoist.I had to completly rebuild the top mount from sheet steel to keep camber in check it was out by inches not degrees  but I dont have pics of the finished project. If any one does a conversion I think this is the worst part :S   made some disc brake caliper mounts  with a hole saw and this  heres the new one, I quess the drive wasn't made for milling, boss was real happy   rear view   bottem  new x-members and mounts  caliper mounted  new frame rails/mounts  front diff mount  modded floor and new x-member  todays job  almost done  bonus footage, hit a elk  look what I see, free parts (my new external fule pump mount) from ^^^^  update pics again (lost when HMT went down) strait up her skirt  the second attempt at a sump(finally got it right) :1  more sump action  255lph external with my cop car mount :6  money shot bitches   Here you go bitches update #4 custom drunkin exhaust fab :6  jdm racing powerhouse  one of the only "aftermarket/performance" parts on the car, I'd rather have a dsm  superspool 14b  modded starion nog edition IC  mounted (2.5 inch cheap bottle, pipe and a magnaflow 2.5- 4 inch round) very quite, dont know why it is but I'm happy because I had no room for a real muffler  stealthy   check out the o2 down pipe fab :1  trailing arm gusset  dirty cockpit  these are the winters, hankook 401. They were studded but it was to crazy in the ass end on dry pavemant so I had souron pull the studs and sipe them as deep as the blade would go, I think he was hitting the cords at times lol. There just off the car because there on the car I'm driving right now (93 323 hatch). |
Xenocron is a piece of shit. I solve my problems like an adult, at the strip club drinking on a work night.  |

What other AWD d-series transmission is there? What was the whole point of getting the donor wagon? |

With all the other fabbing, thought you just made something work. With the cable shifter, it crossed my mind that you could be using a dsm trans with a Johnny Cash adpater kit. Nice 90 HB, I had the same one for my wife before we got our eg 4dr. Great color, except in the summer heat. LS meshies go really good with that grey too. Anyways, nice build. |

Hard as hell to find those AWD wagons here in wisconsin. The few Ive seen were rusted bad with almost 300k. This is a great solution for that problem. Could you still put performance struts/springs on there or would the lower stance cause problems?
Nice work on that tank too.

I suppose you could lower wagons. Here's one on CL that's selling in Portland. It's a boosted one, too.  By the way, highroller, your shit is much better than H-T crap in the pic. |
