Yes, but the bad ground really cost me yesterday I didn't get much done at all. There is a lot of time in researching where things go and how also. They have great videos but it is just for the naturally aspirated not the supercharged or turbo, so some things do vary. most things can be found on the forum and Lonny the owner is always available to help by phone if need be.

thanks exninja.
well I worked for 3 more hours last night and got all of the suspension that I could get done (back order parts come in Thursday. I will try to do some odds and ends tonight such as rear firewall and the like but for the most part i'm dead in the water until the parts arrive.

Looks like those tires need to do some nasty burnouts and then be retired. At least drivers side front lol. Be sure to take a video of it and post it up here.
But in all seriousness man that is some good work. Everything running properly like have you taken in out for some test driving? I would like to see some videos of this thing ripping around if you get a chance.

I am still waiting on 3 parts on back order. I can fire it up but not drive it yet. I will put up some video for sure. My son is in a hurry to have his feelings hurt in his WRX. he is putting down about 450 to the wheels on pump gas. were not even sure what it will do with E85 yet but a whole lot more. so we will do a drag race, roll race and them an autocross event to show the difference.

Last 2 parts shipped yesterday! I hope to have it aligned and ready for our next auto cross event on the 11th. It may be a tall order to work all the bugs out by then but that is the goal.

My son has one, I'll have to find the charger and my old tether but I am sure I can arrange that. I may need to get some half way decent tires also. what do you guys suggest for autocross these days? I use to run Falken's 10 years ago.
