Default Captiva Blue EG K20 BUILD

Thought I would start a build up thread, been on here a while now... so here we go. Bought the car for £900 no rust on arches I wanted a good base car for the swap, it a 1.5 lsi 124.000 miles on the engine I couldnt believe how clean she was



Then I started ordering parts, got the engine from R Motion k20a2 Type R with 50.000 miles on it.



Decided the engine needed abit of a tidy so started spraying and this was the result I got which I'm pretty pleased with.





Then the fun started ordering the goodies, have only got some so far as I am waiting for the bulk of the order to be delivered from Hybrid Racing.

Looks like your off to a good start. You might want to have the welds on the buddy club shifter. My boy had one in his rsx and the welds broke on the tap that does the short throw adjustments. Could have just been a defect in his though but this looks to be a good build
