Well we figured it was time for us to start our own build thread. Alot is in store for this car and wanted to show progress.

This is my orig Balt i used to drive. Bought it brand new in mid '06 and started modding it as funds allowed and after a couple months it looked like this.



It was a great car and was happy with it despite it being an auto. But some go fast goodies on it and afetr the tune was a whole new car and happy again, but still wanted my orig choice, an LSJ.
Well in mid '08 got a good deal on an 05 Arrival Blue LSJ and was content on modding the LSJ and going all out.



A few plans changed and we decided to sell the Black 4dr and got that going. Thats when things went really bad and got a whole mess started. An old friend at the time decided to take over the car and payments and I let him drive the car as paperwork got done. Well he ended up doing this








Long story short got screwed cause he lied about insurnace and mine was already off. So I got stick with the bill. Car has sat for over a year now and we had honaslty given up on the car and wanted it gone. After weighing options and looking at all outcomes, it was better to keep the car and finish payments. The car will be now driven by my fiance and made to be her own personal car. The driver will be made to take responsibility soon but for now we gotta front the repairs.

As of today the car has made some progress to getting repaired and back on the road. Just got out the frame shop today and it made it maiden voyage home on its own power. We will get more things done to get it road worhty again and prowling the streets. Plans are a total overhaul inside and out. Maint will get done and then modding begins. New power in the form of the M62 ad whole new interior with upgraded audio. A new color will follow as well and we already have a new bumper to put on. I will update this thread as progress is made and there are things to show.

Here are some pics as it sits now with more to come soon. Looking forward to keeping it on the road and going all out again. Basically we wanna make our own LSJ 4dr car.

 

Good luck! If ya need any advice on the M62 install, I'm a PM away, but you should be fine

 

Yeah I have read and saved yours and all the other build threads. Thanks, I will let you know if I run into any trouble.

We're more excited to get the car road worthy for now. Gotta reregister and insure the car and do a lil maint on her

I can't wait to see the new bumper go on it

 

that's the car that i rode in to get my own baby back when it got stolen. i'm sorry to see the car in that condition. but it is good to see you fixing it back up. if there's anybody that can get her back to pristine condition, we all know it's you, rich

 

I hope my money can help in your rebuild! lol

 

Yeah, it was really depressing seeing it sit that long the way it did. I had honestly given up cause of the huge mess. But we finally found a way to get things done and now that it's actually making progress, I'm excited to see it finished.

She desreves a second chance. Being its second wreck to date. It just took time to get things done the right way. We willmake it prestine and actually better then stock now with lots of goodies to come.

LOL!! Yeah you are def helping in the car builds for sure. My SC should be done this weekend as well for you to see when you come over

When all said and done, it'll be CAv2 header with 3in collector, 3in catless dp, 2.5 in catback w/ Flowmaster super 44

LOL!!!!!! I forgot about that

LOL!!!!!!!! Yeah car sat for over a year. We haven't seen much of it either.

 

Bump. Gonna get some new pics up tomorrow

 

hope everything comes out alright, that was a clean sedan

 

Thanks man. Oh it will. We'll make sure of it. Gonna make sure it gets restored the right way. Plan on keeping the car

 

So I finally have something to show for the cars progress now. NEW EXHAUST





I noticed the pacesetter choked down to a 2in exit with the ball flange it cane with. So I had my exhaust shop put a 3in on it.

Car will be getting a full 3in exhaust.





Parts are pacesetter sc header, custom made catless dp, 2 summit resonators, Madnrel Bent Exhaust Systems catback, Summit Racing muffler, 4in Flowmaster Tip. I'll be sending the car to get it all installed by the end of this week because I am selling my SC car and need this one to drive as my daily now.

The new front bumper is on the car but not complete. I'll take pics of that soon

 

how much did javier charge for the dp? did you bring him a 3 inch pipe?

 

I don't know yet. Once I bring him the car he will give me a price. He's making the dp from scratch and he siad roughly 80ish when we 1st talked

 

gotcha let me know brotha

 

Will do. Since I modified the header he'll be doing the dp with a 3 bolt flange, flex coupler, and the small resonator on it all in 3in.

 

oooh i like that i want that same setup!
