The car is being kept very well. Rarely driven right now. Moved to a new house with twice the room and also a garage finally. She sits right now in the driveway, with the front bumper off. The air valve on the rear drivers corner needs to be rebuilt or replaced, as if it sits for a few weeks, it'll raise that one corner lol. Needs new tires in front badly. My apologies for not posting up more, but life has been in the way, and last time I tried to log on, it said I couldn't log in. Dunno why, but they fixed it for me and then I never signed back on til now. Happy to answer any questions though

Pretty sure they're from speedhut.com I'm not sure though but most of this car is custom built so chances are it's a special order item...

Gonna bump this one back from the dead. I still have the car, it's doing ok, but needs some refreshing. The car had to sit in the AZ sun for a while, and the clear coat is trashed. Let it be noted: extra money for GOOD clear is worth it.
Air suspension is getting refreshed. Valves need cleaning or replaced. Adding some little things i should've done in the beginning (water traps, schrader valves, train horn)
The light bar in the rear is gonna get replaced also. Half the lights don't work at all... there's parking lights, but no brake lights at all. Gonna replace the whole thing with one that does amber turn signals that scan back and forth. I'll post a link later. The hard part is the current one had to have the inner frame of the trunk cut up and welded back together. So replacing it should be a fun job. I'll take some pics
The sliding ragtop is in need of recovering. Luckily the people who manufacture these are local (i had to get a new handle long ago and found this out)
So... Sorry I was never a huge contributor over here. I was on AED and GAGT more back in the day because i had my red GA back in the day. I still have al the good parts from the GA too, so i'm on the lookout for a 00-02 GASE sedan in red. Or maybe I'll sell off all the old GA parts if the mod bug wears off after refreshing the olds. Have full AED kit and hood. 2.4 supercharger w/ methanol injection, headers, exhaust, 18" centerline wheels, all just sitting.
Anywho, hello to all those still around, and all the new folks.
and yes, they're speedhut gauges with the flames. |

Thanks 
. Its not super pretty right now lol, im kinda ashamed to say it. however the az sun destroys paint here. Ive seen cars 3 years old have full oxidation starting. So I just need to stay motivated to work on it.
I have a bunch of fittings ordered for refreshing the air ride. my valves leak so im gonna tear it all out, clean up some wiring in there as well and hopefully start sanding it down and priming it thereafter.
the trunk isnt opening unless i jump 12v to the relay socket, so i think i need to check wiring there. the relay and terminals show some corrosion. i bought a new relay. still no go. no clicking.
the tail light never really worked perfect. theyre just shoddily made to begin with if you read reviews on light bars like these youll see. so a new one that fits in place will get ordered soon too. its only 36" wide so that limits my options. |

I haven't forgot to post up, but I have been working on it a bit. Got all the air ride and stereo stuff out of the trunk and redid my past wiring spaghetti from my first attempt on air ride. The fittings on the valves were bulky as hell. like 7 brass fittings for each fill/dump, so i ordered 4 branch T's with gauge ports from AVS (1fitting per fill/dump) along with 4 half inch check valves and 2 nice water traps. I painted all the valve brackets, and am putting them back together with some slow downs on the dumps so its a bit easier to dine adjust. With 1/2 inch lines and valves all around, this car hops a bit when hitting the up switches, and it goes down QUICK, and i wanna fiddle with slowing that down a bit. i see why richie had 3/8 valves for the dumps on the old air setup.
