2000 2dr escort zx2: From 2 18s to 8 12s: Rebuild starts pg. 13

Using this piece from toolmaker on the alternator and gonna do 4 runs of 1/0 back to the back batteries this time. Only had 3 runs before with the 270 alternator and running a 9k. Going to 4 runs because i'm gonna change up to a 320 alternator and be using a 10k and the 175.4 this go 'round.

To get all the airspace i need to be able to do 8 12s in such a small car, i made just some minor cuts to the opening into the trunk to be able to carry the box/wall into the trunk area.

There will be new carpet, a new suede headliner, and check out those seats!

Also welded together some angle iron pieces to make a battery tray for the 5 d3100 batteries, and hopefully making a better ground connection with another one of those toolmaker 4 1/0 ring terminals and connecting it straight to the rear strut top mounting bolt.

Oh, yeah, i almost forgot. I put ground control adjustable coilovers on the zx2 also. Forgot to snap pics as i was doing it tho. This is the only one i took. This was after puting them on the front. Already sitting low with them adusted about halfway down.

Just got done checking out your build from the beginning. Looks great. Really makes me miss my zx2.

Thanks, man. It wasnt my first choice car for sure, but wheels and stance help them out a lot.

Lol I was in the same boat when I got mine. Wasn't my choice but made it mine by customizing it. Mine was a 98 and I only got rid of it because I hit a deer and totaled it.

[2loudisjustright]

Thanks! I hope i can get back at it real soon. I've pulled a muscle in my back, and have been in too much pain to work on it for the last week or so.
