Havent got a chance to update this finally got some more pics
started taking the motor apart for the mild build. Brake line tuck and wire tuck finished Dimension Autos should be done with the bay soon. They just got done making the custom strut towers so there higher just need to sand bay and paint then should be all done!

Picked up a B series plm header,ctr (b16b) pistons,type r water pump. and a few other little things for the motor.

As for the bay all i need is to order the tucked radiator and inline fuel tuck kit. should be doing that soon.

some updated pics..

Bay should be done pretty soon. I didnt want to have it shaved so itll be full wire tuck, brake line tuck, raised strut towers, and then painted. will post pics up when finished! Then off to get the outside of the car painted!

Cars off to paint the ouside now and wont really have many updates on the car til around april but will be continuing to buy more parts and finish rebuilding my motor. So far taking my block to get machine work done, and got some ctr (b16b) pistons type r water pump and oil pump. Looking into getting some new rod and main bearings from acura. and a new oil pan. Then do some work on the head will have more updates when my block is back from being machined.

Booster looks off not in black.

I hope you picked up a sway bar for that ASR.

Everything else looks good!!

canadaek

is your booster off a rhd car ? and when they raised the strut area it doesn't look like they raised the mounting point of the strut just the area above it is that just for control arm travel ?

Keilani

that engine bay looks mint.

ejcoupe27

Canadaek, no its the regular stock booster, and yea its so when its lowered the control arm wont smack and make holes in the towers.

and thanks Keilani!!

Got my ctr pistons and type r water pump still waitin for the oil pump thanks from icb! Cant wait to get them bad boys in. Also got my motor all apart finally off for machine work now.

Pistons!

That's a very good way to keep the oem look while exending the tower clearance a little. Much better than a lot of the other methods I've seen.

I agree about the booster looking better in black though.
