Also the engine will be fully rebuildt with new parts and such in December.

Heres some of my other plans:
Lowering, Yellow Tinted Lights, Painted Rims.

Im not 100% Sure about the tinting yet, i might aswell just go for black housing.
Also i cant decide what color i want for the rims.
Its either Takata Green, Black, or just some Dark Bronzeish color.

car looks really good dude! Not a fan of the wheels but it still looks good.If you do keep them I probably wouldnt do Green since itll look weird with your interior. But car is lookin hella nice!!

Hard to keep it clean in Norway, because of the conditions and how the roads is always dirty
Plus the wintertime doesnt make it any easyer xD

Well anyway, no excuses tho. Im acutally planning to take off the coilovers when the wintertime is over since im going to lower it a lot more, i tought id clean most of it then, when i have the opportunity.

Ok, so time for a little update.

My engine is currently being rebuildt as we speak, with brand new parts by a professional engine builder up here in Norway.

Connection Rods changed to Wiseco,
Forged Pistons by Wiseco, i cant remember the exact size but il get that updated later.
New B16a valves, custom modified for more responsive reaction at lower rpm.
New gaskets in the whole engine,
Whole engine 100% cleaned and looks brand new from factory, inside and outside.

Oh, and the engine is a b16a2.

Camshafts, Header, etc isnt changed, since its allready in good condition and by Mugen.

I was considering "Vtec Killer" camshafts, but im not sure if i should anyway.
I want the engine to be safe, and a little better than standard.

Oh and sorry for no pictures, il see if i can get to the workshop in time to take some before the engine is allready done.

Couldnt get in touch with him today, i will try again tomorrow. For the pictures that is.

I figured Blackhouse Lights would look a lot better on my car since its black, so i started with that while im waiting for the engine.

Yeah, it all works.
I dont have A/C because of the extra weight tho, but i live in Norway so its not that hot up here during the summer either, i survive with the windows open

Everything works, theres acutally nothing wrong at all with anything on the whole car

Just bumping this for a bunch of new pictures in the first post, and edited speclist

Also i installed Ractive bucket seats today, really happy with those and they suits the car perfectly, so much nicer than the old stock seats with diffrent colors.

Oh and yeah, going to the track next weekend, so hopefully there will be more pictures by then

The Audison amplifier is pretty good, well yeah..
I basically dont like my interior either, its an earlyer taste to put it simple, but i dont want to change it as im acutally trying to sell the car. When im on the track i strip it tho, i like it much better stripped

I went to a track event this weekend, witch doesnt happend a lot up here in Norway, i got the car around the track on 1:53.4 (Arctic Circle Raceway if anyone wants to take a look at the track), witch isnt that bad with 153whp and 2336 pounds, as im an amateur driver aswell.

I also gave my old 16" grey rims some love with new paint.

Heres some pictures
