YAY!! gauges!!! BOOOO!!! time consuming work. The boost and oil pressure gauges are pretty much plug and play. Just need to merge the 12v power and 12v accessory power wires to the car and get some eyelet fittings for the grounds. AFR gauge will hopefully be tomorrow....I ran out of material. :?

Found these old pics from about 3-4 years ago so I thought I'd share. This was the life of my old ls/vtec. Best time was 13.9, they ran and sounded awesome but not fast enough. Some day I'll build another itb setup with a lot of compression and big cams. Enjoi

Nice work! My favorite hatchback color.... Phantom Gray. I have one also, but a CX version.

Nice! Yeah I love this color too. Had to travel 8 hours to find a bone stock one. You should make a thread of yours.

So there has been a lot going on but work has been done and slowly parts are coming in again. I only have pics now of a couple things but alot more are about to come. Interior is all in and put back together except for the two din plates im waiting for to mount my gauges and replace where the radio and climate control used to go. Motor is completely ready for fluids and the base map i'm waiting for, so it can be started on e85. However, i've been contemplating dropping the tank so i can clean it before i add e85. Tomorrow i get to go get these mounted on my, fo RAYS. enjoi
