No Toby is not done with his yet, He has been busy working on other projects and jobs like mine. But I hope he finishes soon cause that build is top notch.

His car is probably the cleanest s13 I have ever seen, it kinda broke my heart to see that beautiful sr go, but that ls is looking good

edafe i know you and i are running the same TSP cam kit i believe make sure your install height for the valve springs is correct. TSP assured me mine was right but when i installed them i was at 202lbs and had to get new spring locators to bring the install height to 167lbs at 1"800
