Finally! Car painted, reassembly to begin shortly- Tony1, Geoff, Earl
This started as a clutch upgrade. Finally after a year I can start putting it back together.
I'd like to thank:
Tony1- without his advise I don't know where I'd be
Earl- I've bought damn near everything he sells
Geoff at full-race.com- I've bought damn near everything he sells as well
ArtTurbo- Nice turbo at a nice price
and finally, my wife- for being understanding and allowing me to spend obscene amounts of $. As long as it's done when she gets back from Iraq she's happy.
The setup is (really briefly):
B18c4
Benson sleeves
Full-Race stage 4 kit
Thanks to everybody and hopefully I can start the car this month. Larry
Edited for new pics.

Re: More pics (91' LS-VTEC)
The car is still at the body shop while they finish painting little things. Tuesday I should bring it home. As I reassemble it I'll post more pics. This is going to be a "street" car, so I just want to drive it again at this point. Larry

Thanks for all the compliments. This is the third turbo kit I've had on it, I got tired of not being happy with it and my wife told me to do it right and get it over with. She just wants to drive it to work one day.

Looks good!!! You're about 1 month ahead of me in the process. I'm doing paint and body next month. What color would you call that?
Did you decide to just cut the bumper support in half instead of unbolt it?

The color is '03 Infinity Carribean Blue. A friend of mine ordered his G35 in that color and I HATED it. It grew on me and I decided the the color with everting blacked out would look really good.
On the bumper support I either had to cut it or take it out for my intercooler to fit. I decided for safety reasons to cut the center out and keep the ends on the car. It also puts a little weight in front of the wheels so I figured it couldn't hurt, I've always had traction problems. Larry
