Nice build so far... I would agree with other members that those headlights are not the greatest looking....
Two things:
1) I have thought about powdercoating my UIM and LIM, but have read that powdercoating is not very good as it will cause the excessive heat. What are your thoughts?
2) Why paint the Fuel pump bracket? I too would feel hesitant of letting paint soak in gas 24/7. This might lead to a clogged something with the paint starts peeling. I guess alternatively the gas could dissolve the paint?
Nonetheless, good luck with the build!

I've decided that I'm going to paint everything next year because its not really in the budget now as I've spent more than i wanted to.. so I'm gonna do function this year and fashion next year.. i got some goodies aem ignition coils will be here sometime this month
AEM Water Meth injection
ACT Clutch
Hit up Addicted Performance for whatever parts you need! easy to deal with and fast shipping. I'm waiting for a little more funds so they can finish my engine and ship it away.. then things will start moving faster again

[QUOTE="rollcoal;11854361"]relocated the igniter
Since you ordered the AEM Coils you won't need
the igniter anymore....
And I think you'll want the igniter connector back in the engine bay to pin it out with your new coil harness
For a cleaner look , I personally removed the ABS wheel sensor and put them away with Abs unit
What ECU are you planning to use ?

i actually relocated it before i ordered the coils, originally i was going to run the stock coils for a bit but then i sold some parts and bough the aem coils so ill be taking it out..
I'm running an adaptronic ecu right now
yea i still have to get around the abs sensor, I'm going to be running my brake lines underneath my engine along the sub frame.
Master cylinder > tee> front brakes
i hope there will be no issues

The kit comes with one and a T
This is how mine looks on my rhd
I'm planning to move to Proportioning valve in the cabin tho, and put WI tank there
Marc , maybe you can ask Alex If he didn't ship your order to put you enough line to install it in the cabin
