Been working hard on getting the parts car out of here so no updates as of yet. As soon as I get my tax return and sell these parts I am going to order my cat, replace 5th gear in the JDM GSR LSD trans with an LS 5th and carbon coated syncros, have the trans casing bead blasted and then get my flywheel lightened. As soon as that is done the motor goes in lol

I have some areas behind the panels that are extremely dirty. I may hose the areas down, scrub them and then suck the fluid up with a shop vac, blow it out with a compressor and dry it off. This will be done most likely during summer so the heat should dry everything out. My interior harness will be pulled too since I'm going to re-route it also

I wish Rick. By the time I get home its almost dark. I really need to find myself a daily so I can put the car up in the air and go to town on it.
My GSR pulley just came in so I am just waiting on my buddy to bring me my OBD1 GSR IM and then I'll order my Moroso oil pan. I need to at least take my VC, F7 LCAs and front LCAs to get PC'd so I can put on the motor parts. I refuse to put the motor together without a MINTy fresh VC.
I sold my Ksports too, so now I am looking to step up to a better coilover...something in the $1500 range.
I am also stuck debating between a 15x7 Enkei RPF1 PC'd to match my VC & LCAs or going with a cheaper 15x8 949Racing 6UL. I really like the RPF1's, but people keep telling me that the difference when cornering and braking on a 15x8 205+ tire is very noticeable.
