The GTR, still.

Work continues on Levi's uber sexy r32 GTR, taken care of a few major pieces of the cage puzzle, I'd say were on the home stretch as far as the roll cage is concerned.  There has been a few delays, now that we have wrapped up some other things getting in the way of progress we can go full bore again and get this car out on the track ASAP.

The cage got lowered down and all the roof bars got welded, as well as taco-gussets for the centre of the roof X.

 Door bars are in-place, taco'd and welded.

And we've completely replaced the factory dash bar with the dash bar for the cage.  I'm pretty proud of how this turned out, I think its clever, it only needs a couple tabs made to mount the console and the fuse box. 

We've also acquired a 1995 Dodge Neon Sport Coupe for a whopping $200.  You might ask, "What does one do with a $200 Neon?" The answer of course is make it a track car!  The plan is to make this car as bad-ass/fast as possible for the least amount of money.  We're pulling out all the stops, but leaving our wallets firmly placed in our back pockets.  In our oh-so-rare free time we have been scouring local sales, keeping an eye out for racing cast-offs, and watching ebay like a hawk.  I'll get up some "teaser" photos in a while, because you want to see our hooptie race car...
