Car's already painted and trimmed but might be giving it a color change to black with orange stripes down the track though to resemble the old ALIPWR Capri...

Black with orange stripes will look mint, you should do it now though while its still a shellHey mate, car's not a shell, it's the car pictured below...Engine is Brand spanker's Atomic 998GT-R (same as GTECH 8sec BA) pictured below...I have already fitted the Atomic engine into my BA and have fully ran it in, so all's it need's now is to be transplanted into the Capri once it has had the engine conversion done in a few week's time finger's crossed ( Using original engine outa my BA as dummy engine )...So once the engine conversion's completed and engine bay get's repainted,( Probly change engine bay color to black at that stage if I decide im going to change color) all's that's needed is final fitment of engine/trans and accesories and fire it up and it's ready to tune pretty much straight up...

JETFPV Donating Members 672 Member For: 17y 2m 21d Gender: Male Posted 18/09/11 01:48 AM Share Posted 18/09/11 01:48 AM With the 47-88 I will start the converter at around the 4000rpm mark and see how that goes, will make it either looser or tighter from there, with the diff gear's I will be probly starting with 3.9's and also will make changes till I get a happy medium for both street and track...Rear end will be eventually having some major changes as well, it will be running either 325/50/15 or 315/60/15 ET street's, I'll make final decision when it's ready to commence...
