I'm kicking this off since I've finally gotten off my butt and started working on the GLHS again. I'm going to try and document the build with some pictures on at least a weekly basis. The purpose of this build is not to bring the car back to showroom stock condition, but rather to create a car that both looks good and is competitive in SCCA Autox. Oh yeah, it also needs to be pleasant to drive so it'll be getting some upgraded sound insulation.
Current modifications that are either installed or are in-process:
MP Road Race Springs
A520 trans with 3.50:1 FD and OBX LSD
CSX-T Lemans Wheels
Relentless Racing 6 puck ceramic clutch (Yeah, it's that old)
Kirkey aluminum racing seats
Dynamat-like acoustic insulation
2.5" exhaust
This is what it used to look like:
This is what it looked like in action:
Here is what I found under the carpet when I went to install the race seats:
