'83 getting pistons

Post by economiser »

I'm having difficulty finding enthusiasm for this, but I'm making good progress on the car itself. A 3.8L V6 and T5 from a mid-'90s Camaro, a GM 7.5" rear axle for the better gearing, my own bib brake kit, and more.

I'm in Smithfield, UT, USA, and I typo'ed on the big brakes. Front rotors for a '90 Audi Coupe Quattro, 10.86" x 0.98", 4 lug. Rears should be 10.5" x 1", but not finalized yet.

Hi, welcome along. Mayan Gold, my favourite RX-7 colour! More details definitely needed.

Any particular reason for the "difficulty finding enthusiasm"? :?

Can't find any indications anywhere of this engine ever having gone in one of these cars before. I'm starting a thread in the other sub-forum.

The gold is getting covered in blue. The interior is becoming gray. It's difficult running the same thread on 6 different forums, so I lose enthusiasm for all 6.
