New Pictures..PowderCoated Engine, CAI, Crossdriller rotors (Dialup Beware)

EBlend · 11-15-2003, 10:21 PM

Hello
Well here are some pics of my ride, I had a lower intake leak so i took apart my whole engine and replaced all my gaskets. While at it decided to powdercoat me engine, got a CAI intake from n-body intakes, and got some fb perforormance rotors all around, coated in anti-rusting agent (whatever it was, dad did it at his own work) Anyways, enjoy

i actually don't think the front looks all that out of place, but i am just hopping they come out with that autocross/american tuner kit, then i won't care hehe, i want that kit so bad!

Lookin good, My bumper

really matches up good with the body and engine design you went with. Next time you're around winnipeg pass me a line.

ohh yah, if anyone wants anything powdercoated its really not that expensive, i payed 110 buck CAD to have mine done at a big powder coating place here in calgary, that included both valve covers, upper and lower intake manifolds and the thermostat housing pipe thing. I thought it was a good deal!

Your ride is lookin gooood!

I think the GT front looks good, too.

lightningGA · 11-16-2003, 10:40 AM

RedGrandTour · 11-16-2003, 03:30 PM

The engine looks good. I would love to have a powder coated engine.

H.O. Driver · 11-16-2003, 05:18 PM

I really like the powder coated peices, they look awesome.

GregFarz78 · 11-17-2003, 05:37 AM

Looks nice! How did you powdercoat yourself I thought you had to bake in an oven at least 500 degrees for several hours?

The powdercoating looks top notch and bad-ass. In my opinion, it looks 10 times better than the painted manifolds. Great job. The rotors look good, too. I'm really infatuated with that powdercoat on the engine. Looks awesome.

Kdawg207 · 11-17-2003, 09:19 AM

11-17-2003, 10:10 AM

i got em off ebay from this dude

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=40923

he always has a set for sale, so dont' sweat to much about bidding and getting overbid, cuz they will be for sale again once the other auction ends. I got mine for the mid price, 90 bucks, shipping was like 35 thought, heavy suckes. At the end, 125 bucks for all 4 rotors

dad got em coated so they won't rust

Kdawg207 · 11-17-2003, 10:32 AM

thanks...

how do you like em?
can you find out where your dad had em coated...or what they're coated with

lastly what pads did you use

Black Z28 · 11-17-2003, 10:47 AM
