For the ones who doesn't know what I'm talking about, I'm swaping a 95 gs-t engine 125k miles with one I had from my last car 98 eagle talon AWD Turbo 91k miles and converting the Gs-T in an AWD, plus a some extra upgrades like a 16g, fuel pump, 3" gredddy Exhaust, Costum FMIC, costum hard intercooler pipes, etc.
Well I work all day today, so i advance a lot. I have a lot of pics of what I did on my page www.cardomain.com/id/diegogst, basicaly I install the fuel tank, rear suspension, rear brakes, transfer case, etc (all those parts are comming from my TSI AWD)
Come check out my page and tell me what you think.:thumbsup:

damn man nice work. when do you think youll be done?

Thanks.
Well if I keep working like this every day (and that is not usuall "lazy") I should finish like in 20 days, cause I still have to paint, buy the body kit, make the engine swap, buy some stuff that is missing like the downpipe, fuelpump, etc. But it should be 20 days of work. But studying and working is pretty hard to make time to make a hobby like this.

damn... glad i have a lift, looks like its a bitch on the ground. plus welding above you sucks ass, i would rather work on something i could stand or sit under instead of laying down and doin it!

yep, is pretty hard to work like this, but i'm not planning on buy a lift :), anyways the bottom of the car is almos ready, only the exhaust.

nice work man! :thumbsup:

keep us updated

Very cool man! Looking good...

Just make sure that custom support for where the rear axle meets the frame is strong enough to take a beating!

Yes the support is strong enough, it doesn't look pretty but is strong as the original.

Well the TSI AWD body is allready at the junkyard, almost empty, i keep almost everything, and with the engine of the 95 gs-t, i was thinking to keep it and rebuild it or just sell it, I still have all the rear suspension of the 95 gs-t (brakes, spring, shocks, whole bridge) but i still don't know what to do with it, may be sell it, is to big and I need space at the warehouse. Why your are asking this?, does you need something?

How high does your lift go?

bottom of the car is 7 feet off the ground so it makes it pretty easy to work under!

damn, Jake how much did your lift cost?

shop was 16k. fits 4 cars, 5 if one is on the lift and one is under, paint booth, full bath room with shower and jacuzzi tub :p somewhat of a kitchen, fridge, stove, microwave, sink. and 2 futons incase i wanna stay there... its been done many many times!

EDIT: most of that shit didnt come with it... i put in the paint boot and the jacuzzi/shower and most of the kitchen except the sink

I have an update about the project.
Today I start taking the 95 gs-t engine out, i guess that tomorrow should be done, I already change the broken parts of the 98 tsi awd, so is ready to be installed.
I'm so fucking tired, I already disconnect like 22 connectors:eek7:, i hope to remeber where they go:iceslolan (anyways i put labels in all of them) this Japanese guys are amazing how the hell they put the batery support and the vapor control that close on the 95, shit toke me like 30 minuts to take 1 screw out, lol. Hope to don't have to pay Kevin a ticket to come and fix it:iceslolan.
I took some pics but i'm to tired to post them now, i will take more tomorrow and upload them all together.
