Thanks, here are the mods so far!

Rebuilt motor with street port from Pineapple Racing

Rebuilt transmission from Pineapple Racing, with short shifter from Mazdaspeed

Koyo Radiator

Front and Back strut bars

Will get it fully tuned as soon as i get about 1500 miles on the new motor, as well as adding an AFC neo to it at that time.

Long way from where i want it to be, but it will get there lol

That is correct, the car had 120,000 miles on the car when i got the rebuilt motor and trans. the cluster is from another FC because mine didn't work any more. The paint job on the car was done by the former owner. There is a lot of work to be done on the car. I was just asking about opinions. Thank

P.S. i bought the car for a 1000 dollars.
