Yeah I think I'm jumping around from place to place with this car.mainly because I had to leave my full time job for school because they wouldn't work with my new school schedule. So I just get what I get from my post 9/11 Bill and focus on my kid and grades. I sold some good parts to fund the b16 long block. For sure though, when I'm "finished" it'll have nothing but the best. It'll take awhile so meantime Im just trying to get driving again. It's been over a year since my last start up. I've been getting interested in the road race/time attack scene here. Maybe.

good platform, good build so far. don't mind the budget parts either, better a driving car than a pile of unfinished high end parts

Builder gave me updates on the block.
So far everything looks good and should be ready to handle the boost.
So.... ls is going bye bye.
Also picked up a nice set of recaro evo 8s seats. Really clean. Just gotta get the rails for them.

Have you got the EVO Recaro's to fit yet? I had to grind off a tab on bottom to use Recaro Sliders and a planted bracket. Pretty easy actually. Super comfortable too.

So unfortunately something came up in august that made me sell the car. Several months later i got some cash to get another, so i went and found a 90% stock 1992 civic si. Literally same thing. Only problem was i wasn't feeling the b crowd anymore. I wanted to do k. So without having to build a new thread, here is the new Nila (Indian for Blue) story
