Default K20 Coupe

Its been close to 3 years after getting this car completely stock.
at the time going to college full time it was very hard (money wise) to
buy quality brand new parts. so i went on my hunt for Good used parts from
friends and many other websites.
Car still not done yet. i still need to tune it, which i'm waiting for my guy to get
some time to do it. it needs an alignment and tight up little things like install the
new bucket seat, fit the front end better etc. little things

To everyone watching this thread week in mind, i did all the work on this car by myself.
Paint was all done with spray cans (inside and out). i just took my time and did tons of prep
work for a better finish. Due to the lack of tools, Money and sometimes space.

Nice and low key. I'd ditch the stickers but that's minor. Looks fun to drive and has tires to back it up. Thanks for not stretching 185's on there.

Really nice, love S2K cluster
Is that a K20a?
I'm a bit lost because in France we only have K20A from CTR but I know that in the US you had several K20 with different level of power, which one is it?
