not much at all actually. in about two weeks scholarship money comes in and i can spend way too much $$ on exhaust stuffs, right now the computer is shipped off being reprogrammed (for a little extra HP too)

exhaust and axles are the two main things i need. I will be buying the axles when scholarship money comes in too.

actually i'm wrong... after looking over the pics i never put any up of the engine actually in the car. That's where we're at now. The rear suspension is all put back on but nothing tightened up (since there will be new shocks, probably springs, and of course the axles)

here it is right after put pulled in to place.

ok so lets start with what i have of the exhaust. Had to pretty much start all over because the engine sits WAY lower than we expected. What you see is about 1/2 of the exhaust. I'll have a cat on each side like the one pictured (other was supposed to be here yesterday). From there it goes about about 4" more then another 90* angle and it comes about 14" to exit. Not a very long exhaust at all. heh.

the rest of these are just suspension....ball joints and tie rods will hopefully be here tomorrow.

the real progress doesn't show in pics. We got the new computer in, got the wiring ran in the interior and only have three more wires to hook up (need good wire to extend it). The car does crank up now, and the shifter is finished.

Pictures always help. You should get some videos up when the car is running and tearing ass. I could imagine how well that car could handle and whatnot when set up, I mean the car is like the size of a Lotus. I can only imagine the possibilities. :)

well the interior just looks "normal" except for the computer being velcro'd to the carpet behind the driver's seat (ghetto temporary until i figure out my sub situation)

and thanks everyone else for the kind words, progress has been slow as hell, and i probably won't get to touch it again until summer...and the damn bees again.

edit: i have a vid of us cranking the car up but it's on my cell phone and i can't upload it till tomorrow when i get back to my laptop.
