I had no intentions but.....

I was in miami for business this week and while I was in my hotel last night I saw on Ebay a Jspec turbo 13b and trans complete with everything for the A/C to the ECM and harness. So I called the guy ( it was listed in Miami) and saw it this morning. He wanted $1500 but agreed to $1300. So I am $1300 lighter in the wallet and changing my whole plan to the SE.

Thats a good deal! All you need now is some misc stuff! I would suggest that you sink the money into a lightweight flywheel and good clutch setup now, that way when you start upgrading later, youre already set for it to handle the power. Also, might as well work on getting a FMIC for the install so you can cross one more thing "to do" off the list. Since youre already needing to build mostly custom exhaust, you dont need to worry about that. So basically you'll have a slightly upgraded 13BT in there, probably good for about 200 HP give or take. Plenty for an FB! Have fun with it!

I hate you!

Not really, but I am envious at least!
