Interior is Complete!

The last few days lots and lots of progress has been made to this car. The interior is 99% complete now. Just waiting on a couple of things that we are missing and then we'll be 100% done.

I've been so busy with it that I've had pretty much little to no time to post up the updates that I'm doing it all in one post.

More Interior Shots!

Today was only a half day.. Got some other stuff to do, but nontheless it was productive. Got the carpet in, got the rear seat in (PITA in a wagon btw), got the rear trunk sound deadning in, and the molded interior pieces. All that's left at this point is put the right steering wheel on, finish up the dash, get the front seats and seat belts in and fill her up with fluids.

Half the Interior is in!

Got a lot done over the day, and a few things during the week. Roof rack deletes were put in, wiring was finished up fully including the rear hatch, sorted through the wiring mess in the front, put the dash in, head liner, pillars, seals, and a bunch of other stuff. Car is near done!

Interior is Coming Together

Been busy sourcing parts for the interior of the wagon. Odd how some things work on sedans and wagons, and some only on wagons.. Really odd. In anyway, the interior is nearly complete now and ready. Have all the little brackets and things. All that's needed at this point is to finish up the wiring in some places and get the rest of the interior into place. The car will be making a quick trip back to the body shop to adjust the front rad support bar. Shouldn't take too long. As you can see, we figured out some of the wiring already by replacing it altogether.

Car is Grounded!

The car is off the hoist and is sitting on the ground. The engine is in, transmission is in, the rear end mechanicals are all in as well. Basically everything underneath the car is done, minus the exhaust and u-frame. The interior work has begun: sorted through some wiring, and started mounting things like heater core and blower. Still a bunch more wiring to do however.

 

  

  

  

 

Been Away, Car Proccess Moving Along

I've been way too busy with things last bit because the last week I was gone on vacation so before hand had to take care of a million things. While I was away, nonetheless, progress has been moving along still. Big thanks to my friend Adam for taking this set of pics and sharing them with me. I haven't seen the car since I dropped it off at the shop to have it put together. Kind of want to wrench of it also!

 

So looks like the old TS fuel tank is out, and the STi tank is in. Also the entire rear end mechanicals are in and so is the engine and transmission. Interior is being put together now and some of the wiring is being worked on, though there won't be much to do here as this is all straight bolt up and clip in since we are using all 06 STi parts including the wiring harness. The only wiring part will be wirring up the rear wiper motor, and wiring up the 05 headlights to the 06 harness. Should be no issue at all. Exciting!

Also took a couple of pics of the new headlights that I got back from getting them retro fitted with some TSX projectors. Here is a pic I took of one: 

Car as the Assembly Area!

Well we finally transported the car to the assembly shop. Still waiting of a few things like WHEELS and the forgot bumper beam at the body shop lol. This car will slowly start coming to life.
