Re: **Milano Red DC4 Project**
Thanks guys!
Got lots of work done on the car today.. Pulled the motor out and removed all of the brakes/suspension
Here's how the car is sitting at the moment..
Also changed my mind once again about the motor setup Wasn't liking the LS Vtec idea so much and came across a pretty good deal so I picked up the new heart yesterday
No more ls vtec, instead mild built poor mans R
Also picked up a minty rubber ITR intake arm from donut. to replace my ugly stock LS one
And some 4x114 ITR brakes. 11" rotor vs 9.somethin" rotor. Should fill out the NT03's nicely
Brakes just need a refresh, but they will be nice and fresh before goin on.
Also the motor is going to be getting torn down over the next week then its off to the machine shop

Re: **Milano Red DC4 Project**
But ya man I really didn't want to do ls/vtec but just had the block and was on budget but ended up sellin quite a few parts to fund this new project and am stoked to see how it comes out. It's gonna be a totally different car I can't wait haha
Pikced up some early version bride zetas from a guy up north the other day. Hella cool dude. They're nice and light. Gotta get me some rails!

Re: **Milano Red DC4 Project**
Thanks for the comments guys!
Thanks for the kind words man Good luck with the project. I'm sure you'll love the new suspension setup. You have pm
Put in some work on the block. Masked off all the openings and started scrubbin away. No paint here
The crank pulley bolt is givin me A LOT of grief. Hopefully have it off soon and get this bad boy on a stand.
Got my new clutch master in the mail today. OEM s2000
State of the car at the moment...
Milano pink bay...soon to be no more (sorry bout the flash newb photographer)
Interior is stripped and firewall needs some masking then onto paint.
Still waiting on quite a few parts, but more and more stuff keeps comin. Can't wait to get her back up and runnin

Re: **Milano Red DC4 Project**
This is the 4th time I've "re-done" the bay and each time I take it one step further and each time I learn more and more.
Thanks man
Started tearin down the head the other day. Still tryin to decide what all is getting done to it before it goes on the block. Sucks the guy I got the head from had painted it and it is a pain trying to get it off...
Also got all the studs and brackets that I wanted off the firewall and in the bay shaved. Got the bay all cleaned up and the firewall masked off.
More parts comin this week. CAN'T WAIT!
