Default Chong's K20 EG Build up thread

<FONT SIZE="5">UPDATES: Page 2,4,5,6,8,11,12,14,15,<FONT COLOR="red">19</FONT></FONT>


I started this project a few months ago, I think in November or something. I stripped the car completely down, and sold my old motor, saved up money and slowly bought parts for the K20 swap.... and now I have all the parts I need, minus a few nick nacks that I can get here in town. So now this is where it's time to actually get cracking on this build up.

Here are the major plans(of course there's alot more, i'm just listing to big ones):

JDM Type R 36mm 5 Lug Conversion
K20A2 Swap
Engine Bay Shave
Engine Bay Wire Tuck
Battery Relocation
Brake Lines Rerouted and Hidden
Brake Prop. Valve Relocated and Hidden
Fuel Filter Relocated and Hidden
Full Shell Paint Job (Custom Color)
Blue -&gt; Black interior conversion


And here are the pictures up until today:

This is what my car used to look like:


Then, I was going to buy 5 lug, and prepare my car for going down, so I sold my wheels and got these:


expletive this POS:


Motor Pulled:


More **** taken off:


expletive y0' bracket:


Interior being stripped:


my dropped subframe:


Bay fully stripped:


Welding begins:




My Welds = Shittest Welds EVAR:



Firewall:


Front Bumper almost ready for paint:


5 lug:


some bling:



That's all for now... will keep updated.

Speacial thanks to Thien, and Big Chris for convincing me to waste $10000000000 on this project
