Default *My Ek Project* (SoCal)

Okay I have had this car for about 4 years now but within the last two years I have been upgrading and modifying it and still have not finished. Got a bit tired of the 96-98 front so I just finished doing the 99-00 front end. It will head to the body shop for paint soon enough. Of coarse there are always a few setbacks and delays but its coming along so far so good. Right now I am focused on the internals of the motor. Give me your opinions please!





<U>Skunk2 parts </U>
Pro series Intake manifold, 68mm throttle body, vtec solonoid cover, camber kit, rear control arms.




<U>JDM goodies</U>
CTR valve cover, jdm b16, jdm SiR cluster, jdm p30, ctr shift boot, SiR eg driver seat, airbag block off tray, ctr headlights, si grill.

<U>Spoon goodies</U>
Spoon cam gears, resevoir cover, duckbill spoiler, and decals
<U>Buddy Club</U>

i would have stuck with the 96-98 front, but theres nothing wrong with a 99-00 front.

good call on saving it, I absolutely love 96-98's with the square fogs.

i also love rotas.
id rather spend 500 on rims instead of 1500, that way I have an extra 1000 for school or my motor or anything else really. instead of spending that extra 1000 so I can say, "no they arent rota's, they're authentic xxxx rims."

Lol funny thing is that I actually had used 4x114 Desmond Spoon wheels but I would rather spend money on the motor rather than doing the 4x114 setup lol. It was hard to put them up for sale but they sold fast. But I sure miss them

Hey, I guess it's funny that you want your "built" engine breathing through a straw. You'd get more performance just using that as a short ram.
