Re: Rebuilding a legend
What a car to bring back!
Glad we could be a part of it Ryan. For those who couldnt make it, I have a few pics. But damn. What a build. OEM K20 with modded trans. quick, fun, and ready to take on higher class cars without breaking the bank. Reliability compared to the built k blocks is always a plus. Stock Honda reliability is king.
fun day guys...

Re: Rebuilding a legend
Couple quick updates as we are nearing completion:
RC's Garage wanted to respray the bay while the motor was out again
Motor back in
6-piston Wilwood kit that fit under 15" CW Ray's wheels
K-Tuned Billet shifter is pretty awesome
Koyo K-series swap radiator

I thought s2000 spoon monocoque under 15 wheels was massive, but this takes it to a new level!
11.1 or 11.8 rotors? +30 offset on the rim?

Re: Rebuilding a legend
Are you running 225 front and rear?
Have you driven on them? I'm curious to see if the tires rub the fenders.
Looking for new track wheels for my ITR.

Re: Rebuilding a legend
Some unfortunate news: the guy who sold us the motor didn't bother telling us it was shitting oil out of the front and rear main seal. Also had a blown head gasket. Now we're a week behind and I'm extremely pissed
