so far i just patted it walking by it, and brought my a6z6 mini me into the garage to start assembling it. just got it back from the machine shop. micro polished the crank, honed the block, resurfaced the head, and bought me all new bearings and rings. i hope this thread stays strictly wrenching your ef, i was saddened when the old one was locked.

Stripped JDM doors of glass, wiring, seals, trim, and locks. Glass is going in right away, power options on the other hand - will have to wait, everything else labeled and boxed up... for future references.
