Thanks guys!! I'm very pleased with how everything turned out. Did lots of work today, brakes are done, shifter is done, timing cover, starter, alternator, and oil pan back on as well. Putting all my intercooler piping on tomorrow. Should be finished on Sunday!!

Looks good , i am not real sure about the Rare JDM on the brembo brakes thats just what went through my head the on the first glance I am sure it will look good but not sure what they have to do with the brakes not haten just IMO. But I guess if you don't want stickers on the car its a way to show love to those that show it to you.
Still all around hotness the car just looks mean.

Ok my people. We finished the car last night. Man to hear this this start up was soooo fun.
So here is a quick list of what happened:
Ok my people. We finished the car last night. Man to hear this this start up was soooo fun.
So here is a quick list of what happened:
Powder Coat Valve Timing Cover
Powder Coat Intake manifold
Powder Coat Intercooler Piping and inlet/outlet of intercooler
Pathfinder Cooling Mod
paint OEM Brembos
installed 350evo short shifter
installed Sparco Milano 2 seats
There was a lot of work involved with removing and installing the valve timing cover and manifold. Going by the manual and keeping the torque specs right along with the bolt or nut sequence is time consuming. The pathfinder mod is really nice, but a biiish to do with the motor still in. One of the coolant pipes has to be cut and the passenger side CAM sensor harness has to be modified because it hovers over the water temp sensor on the new coolant pipe installed. Lots of brackets, hoses, and lines that we got rid of that were not needed. I have a picture of all the crap that we took off, I'll post that later. The brakes turned out amazing and they definitely POP! I am doing a tailight overlay, so my car will actually be officially murdered lol. I'll post pics of that later today. I'm very happy with how everything turned out and boy did I miss my boost.
Big thanks to Darren and Dave, you guys are awesome, without you guys teaching me all this it would have never happened.
