New Pics of my T88-H / 3-Row Project

Well its taking a lot longer then I originally planned but then again what doesn't. I started this project by buying a full spare motor from Japan so I could drive and enjoy my car while we pulled the J-spec apart, port it, re-built it and then have it ready for install.

Well that's all fine and dandy when you try and make a schedule and keep to it but one set back after another with parts not coming in when scheduled or just Murphey's Law in full effect it never goes according to the schedule, 5 months later still on jack stands its come a ways but still not running but I just got a second wind and thought I would share some of the progress.

I'll be sure to post some finished pics with everthing tied up and the new wheels on. I went with the Volk GT-C's, 18x8 and 18x10 face II option on the front as well as the back to match. They took 5 months to come in but they just got here and they were worth the wait. If I didn't go with the face II option in the front I would have got them a lot sooner but I didnt' like the way it looked with two different looks form front to back.

Anyways here is a run down on what's in store for the beast:

Reactive Racing Street/Stip Ported Motor
Reactive Racing Fuel System (6x900cc)
Greddy T88-H Turbo Kit
Greddy 3-Row Intercooler
Greddy Power Evolution II Exhaust
Greddy Pulley Kit
ACT 6-Puck
Fluidyne Radiator
HKS Hiper Max Damper II Suspension
Kaaz Rear Diff.
300M Axles
M2 Rear Control Arms and Toe Links
Mazdaspeed Rear Tail lights
Mazdaspeed Short Shift Kit
Jaytech Intake Manifold
Accufab 75mm Throttlebody
TEC III Full Engine Management w/Coils
APEXi EL Gauges: Boost, EGT, Fuel Pressure, Coolant Temperature, Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature Tri-pod Center Speaker Gauge Pod
C-West Headlight Kit
'99 Chin Spoiler

Thanks,

Joe

I just wanted to say thanks for all the support and help that I have recieved through the whole ordeal and the storage space that I am taking up. Thanks a lot to Demetrios and Ernie T for all the support and help.

Seriously. I was thinking it's probably bigger than the rotor housing. Holy god is that huge.

The car should be awesome though. In the list, you didn't mention the pulleys, probably other things as well that just jumped out at me.

The intercooler will probably work a lot better with the cardboard removed.

Looks like some crazy sh-tuff is going on with your intake manifold, and your radiator cap / temp sensor plate....
Tell us a little about what things are different over a stock 13B other than the greddy and the FMIC !?
