Re: Dude, wheres my front end? (MDJ IKNJ)
Hey I think it actually looks kinda cool like that.
Its interesting to see how the motor sits so perfectly snug in the enginebay like that.
u could just stick on a fiberglass bumper and call it a racecar too

yeah that pic is pretty cool.
if you didn't have to worry about the cooling issues, it would be fun to drive around town with your car going commando LOL

What motor is that btw?</TD></TR></TABLE>
Yes, the spot welds are not fun a bit. Thankfully i read up on H-T and found that an air-chisel works wonders. Had it off in about 2 hours.
The motor is a Japanese b18c - no number found after the C on the block.
(forgive me for not knowing much more about the motor, i bought the car as it sits)
Makes me want to throw on a turbo while its soo easy to get too!

Very true, i guess im used to my GTI VR6 which has almost no room to work with up near the radiator. Im also thinkin it would be alot easier to fab up the downpipe and other associated plumbing without a front end on there.

Well, again, judging from the intake mani' (and if the entire longblock is a B18C), then maybe it's an SiR-G engine?
Got any more pics of the entire ride?

Minor fender bender ... hood wouldn't shut because the support was pushed backwards about 2 inches. Hope i never get in a "real" front end wreck.
