I was looknig at some expo pictures fat bradstard took. Makes me miss my car!!

My car has been down since ITR expo

Im still looking at 3-4 more weeks.

 

Yeah, those are some great shots.. good luck with everything

I was in the same boat as you a while back. Don't let it get you down.

 

nice shots, i like the R's

My first civic.. 6months.
My integra now took 6 months....I am happy I did wait

 

My car has been down for 3 months...i can sympathize

 

at least your car looks good in the pics I haven't been following lately though, whats your block status (the dart fiasco and all...)?

The tall dart motor was sold to pondus in norway.

i sent my b18c5 motor off to benson about 3 weeks ago.

I upgraded freaking everything
Benson sleeved motor
cp pistons
full race rods
Fluiddamper pulley
tilton clutch bearing kit
quiafe lsd

i got a new head unit to

 

It will be worth the wait once you recieve your Benson block..trust me

 

Head up Jordo, Good things come to those that wait

Been following ur progression from when u first posted about it, just keep at it brudda, in no time you will be telling me which cars u been smoking

 

Thats the name of the game, I've had my car a lil over a year in a half and out of that time my car has prob been on the road 4 months or soo since I keep changing my turbo set up. I always look at it like, the car will be back better than ever once it's on the road

Good choice with the pulley, I wonder why you chose that

Also, I am sending my block out this week, we have to race when they are both done

Also, for the depressing titles, STOP! You car is sickkkk, and will be better when it's done.

 

mines been down since june, and will be down til atleast winter. all this after having it on the road for only about 6months. previously it was down for about 14months during my original build.

 

haha is it me or is there 2 of this thread ?

Yep Dart talldeck block has arrived, it's a beaty.
A little word of advice, don't rush it getting the car ready but take your time and try to get everything just perfect and you will have a monster R, and a reliable one too.
Me I'm just starting on the build now and do not plan on having the car running again until March so there should be plenty of time getting it all sorted, alltough i do have to get all the parts needed in time for this to happen. I'm hoping this will go ok but you never know when ordering custom parts, delays are part of the game. I know i will miss driving the R but i hope it will be worth the wait, i'll have to get by with my winter beater, a 86 VW Caravelle 1.6 Diesel Atleast it's got a turbo

Still don't understand how you do it. You get the Canuck "baller" award.

 

they moved my thread from force induction

 

just be patient. i don't think i've ever seen ur R around. i'm up here in the GSP!

 

its worth the wait
