I could pull a piston that small out of my weedeater that is broke or any small engine repair shop should have a few busted ones. Well **** it looks like I might have to start building some of these lil guys! I wish I still had all those dam rotors from my FB.

Sorry for the lack of updates guys, after DGRR I got deployed for two months came home and went on leave for two weeks to see family. Went TDY shortly after getting back to work and now I'm on the road for another month, but before going on leave I dropped engine of to Rotorsports and picked her up shortly before leaving this time. So I have a brand new engine in the garage and will hopefully be able to get back to it once I get home!

Well I haven't had much time home in the past two years, but it looks like I'm getting a break for a few months!!! Here is some of what I've done since my last post, not much but better than nothing!
Sub frame was stripped and repainted with high-temp paint and is installed with the manual steering rack.
My old brake lines were busted so I replace them with braided ones. does it really help.?.... probably not, but it looks good and they are new.
More updates to come!

So since my last post, I got busy! First I grabbed a cherry picked and put the engine in.
Then I ditched the JDM harness and grabbed the USD I had hanging out. This one was ten times easier to strip down, the tape rolled right off.
After stripping, I test fitted over and over till just right.
All finished and ready to go in!
Drilled and tapped a spot for my boost control kit valve and got her all hooked up.

shetlen, i would double check that. i've had that same boost control solenoid on several cars and i've never seen the vac lines hooked up like that. i can't visualize how the air has anywhere to vent with your vent port plugged like that.
can you post pics of the rest of the wastegate and vac lines setup?

Im glad ur still working on her....very nice car. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build. Not sure if I missed it, but what was the reason you decided to go single vs staying with the twins?

Thanks guys! I do not know which wheels I'm going to run yet, probably the ones that are on there until I find a better set later on.
Well been busy TDY and home with the family as usual but I'm back in NC. I got in some CXracing coilovers due to all of mine being blown. I heard good things from them on other car forums so I will give them a shot.
Not sure why only the left fender well was painted and the right was not? Either way I will be putting truck bed roll on lining on both sides. bad thing is, it is hard to get my garage up to painting temps with the outside temp 18 degrees.
Caliper paint to match the car.
They were really dirty!
Just a cool pic I found! enjoy.
More to come here shortly!

Well I got the garage barely warm enough to roll on some truck bed lining and I will not do that again, it looks like crap with the brush strokes in it. When it gets warm enough I will get the spray on to finish it.
It may look good from far but not up close
All the brakes are off now! They will be yellow once the temps warm up.
These things are dirty, rebuild kits on the way!
Time for coilovers to go on! More to come.
