Working on my car this weekend at Sportcar Motion, snapped a few pics after closing.
The TeaFathers new project, replacing the drag Del Sol, with a streetable Civic EH:. The new motor is sleeved by Benson with 83mm bore, Manley rods and CP pistons. Turbo is GT35R , Precision 750hp intercooler with custom 3" alum piping.




Mike G getting some "adjustments" to the beast

Built GSR block awaiting a certain other white hatchback in need of a new heart

Delsolemites car staying 1.6, but with bigger *****


Mike G's bumper ownz mine

No pics of my car, it's got no heart

His bottom end had a lot of miles, so he decided tos tart fresh, and beef it up a bit. It ran great as it was, but it's going to be a lot better with more boost

Not at all, it was running like a champ, thanks to John at Sportcar and Shaun of Church Automotive Testing, but a few changes were in order. Even at low boost, that car is very quick
