Haha well its her build but I gotta step in here from time to time and set people straight. I know its a free country and web forum so people are entitled to their opinions, but damn people act like this is the first car we have built. I have had 60 damn cars and im only 24, shes had damn near 10 so like I said this isn't our first go around.

Its always ncie build but you should do this, or nice build you should do that. No its nice build, plain and simple. Advise from others is not wanted lol. I mean ****, if you wanna give advise go start your own build thread and build a car yourself lol. I really don't wanna come off as an asshole to people but its quite irritating to read stupid ass comments from others about what they would do to this car. Its her car, not yours, she is doing it the way she wants to do it. I am just wrenching on the damn thing for her now since she is prego...not that that has slowed her down any from being in the garage haha.

You just sit back and enjoy the ride and leave the build to me and her lol

The header is not going to be here for long, there will be a turbo manifold in its place.
I hear ya, i understand you dont want any negative feedback.. And i also (now) understand you'll be turboing it and having a downpipe, but you cant say im wrong about the 4-1 being ultra close to the ground on a 1.8 or 2.0.. Of course you, or her, might not want the car lowered? thats totally up to you.. Now, im sorry if i angered you.. it wasnt intentional.. Ill leave my 2 cents in my pocket from now on

Haha my bad, like I said wasn't trying to be a dick and wasn't totally aimed at you either. The car will be lowered, my crx was crushed and I didn't have any issues with hitting the downpipe even on shitty ass Ohio roads. Plus the car wont be driven all the time. Now continue posting in here lol

K20 swap cost too much!

A D-series turbo would be just perfect IMO.

Agreed..K series are a little too expensive for me!!

I was going to do a turbo Z6 swap, even had the motor until the B20 fell into our lap...how could that be passed up!! BTW pics re-uploaded

Haha yeah, she has this awesome ass bf who comes across cars all the time. Oh wait that bf is me haha. I am getting the crx for basically free. I have to pull the motor from it and put it in a guys Hatchback, he doesnt have any money so he is giving me the crx as payment lol. Its hit in the front and has salvaged title. But it has no rust on it, has a brand new rear bumper and bumper support with less then 1k miles of use on them. He got rear ended before being hit in the front, bought the bumper and support from local dealer. The bumper and support will be going on her car for sure since she doesn't have either.

11/7/09: I told you an update would come today, its not the update I really wanted to give but it is what it is. Picked up a set of front mudflaps today for $15 bucks!! They arein mint shape (the discoloration in picture is caused by water from being cleaned up lol). Another update will come tomorrow once the parts car gets here
