New Year, New Project Car Resolutions

2018 is a brand New Year, which means another year of project cars...

I'm planning on finishing a few project cars I've slowly been working on these past 5 years.. It shouldn't have taken me this long, but since my cars were still driveable, why not drive them? Well now's about the time where I would like to start some new project cars, so I figured i'd get the ball rolling again. This is what i'm attempting for 2018:

240SX
-Rebuild clutch pedal
-Differential + axle + driveshaft swap or buy sequential gearbox
-Stop blowing up transmissions
-Finish the top end build
-Rebuild or replace turbo
-Custom intake manifold
-Heat shield for master brake cylinder
-Install serial gauge
-Upgrade to an even bigger big brake kit
-Retune and reconfigure boost by gear

Miata #1
-Dry ice bath the interior
-Fab in new roll cage
-Floor mounted bucket seat
-New suspension

Miata #2
-Torsen diff
-Rotrex supercharger

Legend
-Replace axles and balljoints
-New brakes

Land Cruiser
-Rebuild axles
-Metal rear bumper
-Dynamat the entire car
-New speakers


Most importantly.... buy a 930 or a 964.



What are your New Year resolutions for your project cars? Hopefully we have all appeased the car gods for a great 2018! .......So far I haven't done anything
