JBB is an unknown quantity at this point
set a few parts on the motor to get an idea of what i was working with




woo

taping/painting the head





gettin some head



more down time...painting other things



i jacked up the crank pulley, was hanging by a coat hanger and i missed the spot underneath it. ill probably just touch that spot up with a sharpie or something



motor mount brackets, ac bracket, alt bracket, p/s bracket, intake manifold support







hit up the intake manifold



I found a greddy oil filter relocation kit on ebay and the guy had it listed for $200. I emailed him if it didnt sell, Id like to offer $150. He said ok, I considered your offer and relisted it for 150 so you can bid. Im like, sweet, and I bid on it. Last minute some guy bids it up to like 168 and I end up stealing it in the last 5 seconds for $170. 2 days later the owner emails me and says hey, sorry, it was my dads and he wanted to sell it locally. So Im sitting here like WTF?? I ended up picking up the circuit sports kit because I couldnt find any other good deals on a greddy one :\



picked up some turbo lines



drain tube



dual activation dual fan thermostatic switch from painless wiring



After taking Mikester's advice the other week, I was about to pick up a nismo power brace from FRSport because they were on sale...but I was waiting to see if they would drop any more. I was on zilvia looking for a zenki lip and happened to come across a barely used (2000 miles) s14 brace. I got it for $170 paypal'd/shipped, so that was a pretty sweet deal.



time to tackle the valve seals




womp womp picked up an SE lip in the mean time




also some LED kouki tails from our resident kriskouki!
