thanks for the comments guys keep em coming

i am not doing a b-series motor dont want to be thrown out of class, i am just going to use a built d16a6. if you didnt notice the motor you see is the d15 with a mpfi swap. the stock intake and stock exhaust mani are on because of smog.

Matt,

The hood even looks like it matches. 50/50, Talk to dave about a rebuildable D16, I think you'd have more fun in STS. You're at a couple hudred pounds disadvantage, and a set of tires for IS3.

A little O-T...but Matt, did you see that Todd00 has a S-T rear sway bar for sale? I im'd you on it over AIM -

Just thought I'd let you know.

That hood looks suprisingly good for the little amount of work you said you put into it!

Alex
