Hows it going guys. been surfing the site for awhile and just now decided to join. I have a 95rs which has been giving me hell since I picked her up. The car is getting closer to being done and should be back up and on the road within the next month or two. CODE4 has been helping me out alot with the car since i've made the journey into MS haha. I bought the car as a shell with 3 holes in the block and a head that was shot. Rebuilt the motor and after 3 months the transmission went. Finally have another transmission in, new axels, and the Megasquirt just needs to be tuned. I also have alot of side projects with the car going on as well including finishing my two-tone, swapping sunroofs for a factory one, installing gauges (only need to install the fuel pressure), repaint my rims, and raise my ride hight haha.
Mod List: short ram intake unknown exhaust MS1 v3.0 running full standalone 6 gauges (fuel pressure, boost/vac, oil pressure, coolant tempt, voltage, WB02) Megan Racing front and rear strut bars Neuspeed lowering springs Racing Hart 17" Z5000's EGR block off Front dilled&slotted rotors
I also have a semi-built motor on the side with: Crane 12's AEM adjustables full Crower valvetrain Eagle rods Weisco 8:8:1 pistons
Now what everyones curious about, pictures. Have more on request if anyone wants them lol. Photos are orded from purchase up to now.

Much appriciated! Glad to hear some people like the car haha. Tomorrow i'll put up more pictures of some progress, including some pictures of what the motor looked like when i got it. I assure that'll get some laughs haha. This car has really been a journey and it's never ran 100%, so i'm extremely excited to get it up and running with the Megasquirt. Hopefully alotof the people on here are alot like Dave and can share some input. Good or bad, I can take both. I'm always open to what people have to share.
Thanks for the welcomes tho! I'll put some more stuff up tomorrow once I can get on a computer instead of just my phone.
