Re: 92 RS build

Little history behind the car. I found it in a neighbor's back yard complete and bought it for $300. I began taking the car apart for an ls engine swap, obviously the purple had to go in favor of the blue. I have done all the work myself so far.

Nitrous Oxide! And don't worry I'll clean up all the welds and give her some paint and sound deadener.

Re: 92 RS build

Good idea for the battery location! How did you....or where did you I should say.....run the wires to the ground/ignition area under the hood?

Re: 92 RS build

When I removed the left hand inner quarter trim to relocate the battery there is a nice wire route to the front already there. SCORE. I'll post pics of the finished work when my wiring parts come in.

Looks great so far, I love that color blue. I'm also interested in seeing how you route the wires for the battery relocation.

Re: 92 RS build

Not a whole lot of progress today just ran some power wires didn't have much time to work on it but every little bit helps. I don't have my distribution block for the firewall in yet so I can't get to the good part... The "correct" way to run ground and power is to run power on one side of the car and ground on the other side soI'm only half done, but there are some really good routing for everything.
