yeah it was, and will stay like this for awhile...

the direction of this build will to keep this looking mostly stock with improved handling and performance.

it will remain the daily driver for awhile.

once i finish the 95 coupe build, i plan to put this down for a few weeks and touch up the body, do the front/rear bumper conversions, fix the litle dings, and have it repainted factory, clear coat is fading pretty bad on the roof as of now.

now debating on bottom end rebuild (P73/PCT pistons, stock with arp or eagle rods) new rings/bearings/ect

or leave it alone...cyl walls look good, pistons look good....

replacing oil pump/water pump with new OEM


plans for this car, daily driver, plan to add JRSC kit eventually...
