Default Pics from the swap, come have a look...56k ehhhhhh you pick

Well, this took place in March over Spring Break and I'm just now getting around to getting the pics together :rolls eyes: laziness has struck again. Yes I know a couple of the pics are blurry but the retard that was behind the camera didnt notice that it was on macro mode until I got the camera. If anyone has any questions about anything feel free to ask, and dont mind my comments by the pics .

The ever popular "first things first shot"



Things were off to a good start, several of the hoses decided they wanted to stay with the motor so I had to get creative...



A few hours and a nap later....



The helpers and I (me in the middle)





What I had waiting in my room...



We were still waiting on mounts for the new motor and I got bored so I decided to make it pretty...



Finished Valvecover..



Mounts arrived, went back to work and ended up with this, you can see where I labeled all the vac lines and plugs...





All said and done I replaced the o2 sensor that broke off in the header on the d16 and a new ignition coil for the gsr and cleaned that filthy engine bay out, and ended up with this...





Overall it was fun, and I'd do it all over again if I had the chance. Swap was very straight forward and easy. With the help of b18c1_powered_si (brian wong and his mounts) and Kenji's magical ecu skills she came to life.








So what's everybody think???

I think there's something VHT crinkle paint? something like that, if you search for it, I'm positive you can find out what the stuff actually is...

Edit: Nice work on the swap btw...is that the right upper radiator hose? looks a little awkward
