My friend jdm_ef3 drove a hour last saturday to help do a few things to the car.





I know it looks bad but Im gonna order S.S. brakes hoses with new pads, slotted & drilled rotors and then change out the bushings to poly!!!

While jdm_ef3 was here he hung my 5 speed pedals and took out my auto pedals.
There is alot of work left I know and even more to get it to the level of alot of people on here!!! But here is my project so far and ALOT MORE TO COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you should put the hood back to where it was Unless you are having trouble clearing a motor.... That's just my opinion, if you like it then thats all that matters Good luck with the build

MOTOR PLANS???? Oh god what are they this week? NO I got a plan and so far Ive stuck to it!!!!
SOHC D16A6 non-vtec turbo 400whp. I said I was never goin tell but thats all Im telling you guys can figure out the rest. So far I really haven't seen that many non-vtec turbos. I have a few of parts Ill post later.

And tippyman, jdm_ef3 is a good man considering that we had never met tell saturday and had only talked here on H-T!!! That says alot about a man that will drive a hour to help someone that he doesn't know and then said he would come back to help out more later on! I had some people I called friends that wouldn't come HELP!!! Any time he needs help from me all he has to do is ask.
