guess who's TII has a new engine :)

Hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know that my TII is one step
further along in its restoration. I finally got the new j-spec installed
and mostly cleaned. I still have some things to hook up, but it's mostly
downhill from here

. Sure, I understand i will run into all sorts of
little booby traps later on, but I feel like the car is well on its way.

Below are before and after pictures of the engine bay:

The car will have the following when it runs:

Suspension

Ractive strutbar
17" Advan 5 (replicas)
Kuhmo 712's

Fuel:
Walbro 255lph fuel pump

Knightsports FCD
720cc Secondaries

Coming soon:

It's an 89TII, white exterior with blue leather interior, 104k miles.

comments/suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks,
Jameson
