03 Evo 8 - never-ending build

Having a project car can be so frustrating at times. You drive it, something goes wrong, then its back to the drawing board. Now I expect things to break, its just part of the game and I'm ok with that...it's the shopping around for new stuff that I dread. It's sooooo hard to make up your mind on exactly what it is you want. I couldn't even begin to imagine being a Honda or a Mustang guy with all the different choices available - I'd lose my mind

Anyway, I thought for sure I'd be done this time around but once that bug hits, pffffft, thats it. So for now, here's what I've got done:

Old pics...nothing current.

Love this car , sooo damn clean and mean . Thaats how to do it right there . Get those turbo Gremlins figured out and you got a real stable platform that can do it all road racing/drags . I wnna say this has already run 11's on the 1/4 mile and near the 7 min mark at the ring ?

So freakin impressive ..............

Carlos, man, I appreciate it bro. I was like you, I wanted to get rid of this motherfucker and move on to something else but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Who knows, maybe before I leave here, I will.

Can't wait to see you start your new project though! I've only seen maybe 1 R32 done right, and that was yeeeaaars ago when I lived in SoCal. Seeing how you built your hatch, I'm sure it'll turn out proper, bro.

I Can still remember your car coming off the truck when I worked at pov shipping , I was like ole damnnnn . It didnt let me down when i looked at it , I could tell it was built with love and good parts ................

You know me , if my plans work the way I intend , I'll have a damn good budget to work with off the bat and I will be paying cash for the car so no car payments . This will be my next project that will get nothing but quality parts . You'll see ..........

Get that FP black on there and unleash the beast ............. oooh yeah !!!!!
