First I would like to thank Jeff, Mike and Jason for all the help today. Still have a lot of work left, but if it wasn't for them I wouldn't even have got this far. As we go through the pics and parts they should look really familiar since they are coming off the "Original Sleeper".

Before we started






BMR K-member


Koni Yellows, Hotchkis Springs and Ground Control C/C Plates


Stainless Works LT's with High Flow Cats and X-Pipe


Stock axle with 3.31


Took the axle of Black (3.73's) and put it on Blue. Koni Yellows, Hotchkis Springs, Whiteline LCA, Whiteline Panhard, Whiteline Chassis support, Whiteline LCA relo brackets, METCO UCA



Pulled the stock intake from blue to put on black


MGW from Black now in Blue


Finishing the install of the METCO UCA


MegnaFlow Black Quad Tip Axleback with GT500 Diffuser


Textured Black ForgeStar 19x9 and 19x11


Forgot to take a pic of the BMR K-member with everything on it as well as the one piece DS. It is frick'n awesome even though it was a PITA. Really cleans up the underside and tons of room.
The supercharger still needs to be installed along with the BMR Radiator support. Like I said, lots of work left, but a great start.
Oh yeah, still have to put the black car back together. LOL

Aww man wish I'd been there. Good job guys. JJ I thought you didn't want the 3.73 gears anymore, or was it the relo brackets that caused the switch?

I'm just glad you finally let me use a hammer at one point...I was having withdraws. Lol. It was a good day of wrenching and talking smack to each other.

That K member is a piece of artwork once it was together. I can't post what it was being called up to that point.
And the blue monster is going to be sweet once its done and all of the greasy hand prints are washed off.

JJ it was good to hang out and to see your family. Its been too long.

Jason, it was good to see you before you leave and to see your family too.

Still thinking about 3.55's, but didn't want to give up the ReLo brackets or the gears for free. I'd take the stripes too if I could.

If you decide that you really want to try 3.55 gears let me know and we will do a trial swap.

Jen is doing better. Her eye looks good considering and she said it doesn't hurt much.
Backstory for everyone. Buddy (our dog) was feeling cuddly yesterday morning and scratched Jens eye with one of his claws.

I'm still trying to get used to it and the different front end. I'm really going to miss the black with the stripes.
