thanks a lot ! i wont have much progress until i get these brackets back tomorow or the next day, i still got to get those rear LCAS on and tweak the adjustment on the shocks/ springs. probally gunna switch the wheels , hopefully i get my license back soon so ill be able to stop going crazy with boredom and be more motivated for time on the car.

it might be able to be done but idk. there was a f-d on HCW and he had to get a fwd tranny.
yeah i realised that im still goin for the fwd turbo , i was so juiced though too then i found out bisi started his fwd turbo build sigh so much for being original!
i didnt really want to tempt the honda gods to **** me over again the trannys already got highmileage and im not really sure i feel comfortable doin to much im thinking more along the lines of just building a D series head with some bisi goods and just enjoying some na power with the 4wd setup til its time comes to go to honda heaven

I GOTTA see how this thing sits when you get it all together, i dropped my rt4wd a few days ago and the front is pretty much on the shock body over every bump... I'll be calling ST after the holiday...

do you need the forks ? or lcas and forks ? i might be thinking about selling the kit as a whole with no miles on the lcas and maybe 10 miles on the forks.

so im about to take my car to the shop and it breaks down! dizzy cap went bad, then the dizzy went and then the fuel pump wouldnt prime. lame bump before christmas..
2915+645=3560+140=3700 ... fml.
at least she runs good now, should last another 50-60 k at least, unless the tranny blows.
i finished school for the semester, so after work tomorow i plan to start my brakes and install the LCA's finally. ill keep htech updated

Love what you're doing with it! Also, it looks badass with those wheels and that 90's squiggle thing on the side

do it i promise you wont regret a single day driving it ! i love this car.
im trying to get a hold of someone that might know how to fab up a mount to get a f2d and retain the 4wd. this single cam is enough for me for now after i get going this car doesnt like to stop.( partly because the brakes suck.)
