Yeah that would be ideal. But I have a feeling the rear will go before I have the funds to do all that lol.

Yeah I had to do it. Couldn't let it go or pay someone. I have all the tools so might as well use them lolYeah I half ass measured and made sure I wasn't gonna drill through into the water jacket lol. Tapping was total ass since the fuel rails were in the way. Took like 20 minutes per side doing 1/8th turns :nono:


In other news. Planning out how I'm gonna do the power swap, gonna redo my cluster lights, do door and pillar speakers, and probably sound deaden at the same time.

Also this things needs trac bars baaad. Probably gonna order assassin bars from Smith Racecraft so I can do burnouts without the ass end hopping all over the place.

Then prepare for the inevitable death of the G80. Kinda wanna just pick up a spare rear end and build it, then swap it in when the time comes.
Wanna buy the axle out of my green truck? Can pick it up in october.

Yeah that's what I figured. Depends on price lol.
Yup, 3.73s, rear disc, it's rusty but i figure you'll be going through the whole thing anyway. 99% sure the axle isn't rotted... haha

What do they go for? Couple hundred bucks?

Yeah I'd strip it and go through it. Idk, I've only ever seen a few on CL around me. We can talk more when it gets closer and I'll see what they go for

Ordered up a couple things a few days ago.

New cluster overlay, needles, cluster surround, leds, window regulators and motors for both sides, couple relays, interior paint and clear, and a 99-02 fog light switch.

Changing up the cluster. Gonna go with the escalade surround, clear/white needles, and escalade overlay. Gonna change all my leds to red. The white is way too bright at night even turned all the way down, plus I like the red interior lighting in the subie.

Got the interior paint for my 99-02 panels, just gonna be black, nothing fancy.

Talked to scottyboy and he suggested a relay for the power conversion instead of going directly off the ignition switch, just for safety.

Gonna use the fog light switch to wire in my aftermarket harness and make it look factory.

Also gonna probably redo my turn signal wiring and solder everything. It's all done with those plastic wire taps.

Really concentrating on cleaning everything up and making it worthy of the money I've put into it.
