| Man, I'm into the wheels and wing. White ought to look cool, that bronze is fire though. I'm sure a decent shop can get close to the Volk finish, no? | |

| Quick update. So the awesome dudes at Brian Crower sent me the wrong cams. They sent me S14/S15 cams.. Gotta send this back Got tires mounted on the CE's Out with the old in with the new Looks like im going to need spacers all around Got these made im going to have to mess around with the plates but from the looks of it I might not be able to quarter panel mount gotta see what I can do. Rears are on and this is how it's currently sitting. Just waiting on the cams and the new center section of the turbo to come in. Motor should be done this week or when the cams come. Haul this to Kevins finish the swap and tune drive the living piss out of it. | |

| You were able to get the TE's refinished I see, I'm glad you went through with the bronze.
BTW, that looks fucking cool. | |

| Only reason it looks off is the huge need for spacers. Gonna be spot on. | |

| Got it refinished alright thanks to homedepot. I think I wont quarter panel mount also its just a pain. Im trading the 17 inch tires for some 25mm for the rear and fronts I think I need a 10mm

| Nothing really new about to pick up the motor from Pavel, also bought a S14 timing chain cover/oil pump new from zilvia since the one I bought from someone was pretty much trash. Thanks to oots for the hook up Grabbed Isis intake mani and radiator hoses Bought the rest of the miscellaneous things for the motor. New plugs, oem thermostat, break in oil, and what not. | |

| Dropped everything off car should be good to go soon pretty excited Picked up the motor pretty happy about it Pavel does AMAZING work Took off the VC I felt like painting it Home depot gold flake paint with clear effex Loaded up dropping it all off to Kevin's to finish everything up At this point all I need is a 90 degree coupler, PCV valve, 25mm spacers, and my new oil pressure gauge because the one I had was a mechanical so I ordered a Stack oil pressure gauge eventually gonna swap all my gauges to stack. Updates coming soon I still have to pick up my turbo from Pavel he didn't have time to finish it | |

| Who's ready for a update?? Turbo getting re-built at Pavel's racing engines We ran in to a issue that a stock T28 waste gate actuator would not work or a T25. The turbo had a weird one that came with it but the owner needed it back. So being Pavel the crazy Russian wizard made a custom HKS waste gate actuator he had laying around. Sand blasted the housing and with my new Garrett GT2871R CHRA Assembly process Here is the waste gate actuator situation Cut up a bracket from a T25 heat shield Cut up and measured Rod was way to long so it was cut up and shortened Test fit And BAM Pretty happy with it Got some 25mm spacers Dropped everything off and here is the motor hanging out Kevin's house of race cars lol All the stuff for the motor is set | |
