Ok so i sold my coupe and bought a new car. Reason being is that i wanted a better template to work off of and well pics speak for

Interior pics to come soon.
Plans for her. It currently has an ls swap runs good but that motor will be comming out and i will be starting a build for a z6 for her with a wire tuck im not sure how crazy im going to go with it as far as shaving the engine bay but its definately on my mind. Needs a cargo cover, the search will begin for oem window visors as well and we will see where things go

So i started her up and there seems to be a vaccum leak. Not sure. When i cover the TB with my hand car stays on i checked everywhere with break cleaner there seemed to be a small leak in intake manifold gasket. I changed it no more leak but still apparently have a vaccume leak :/

Did you change your throttle body gasket too?
Mine used to notorious in cracking tb gasket which cause vacuum leak, but i got thermal tb gasket now and no problem since. 2 of my vacuum hoses has a tiny leak too i took the original clamp and put a hose clamp for tighter seal.

So I turbo'd the car for a little bit had some fun with it but I hardly drive it with the turbo since it isn't tuned so I'm taking it out and will start with some more progress on under the hood soon plan on painting the engine bay and doing a rear disk break conversion
