92 JDM FD Type-R Build - The story of an FD beaten its whole life
Nice job getting it up and running. Are you going to be running an aftermarket ECU? If you are, you should come down to Halifax June 8 and 9 and take advantage of the tuner we are flying down. There is a thread going in the "Canadian Forum" right now.
I am looking for one right now and my two friends are going so i will be there to. haha
Update so i broke my rad which means i had to pull that out tonight. also i pulled the bumper so i could start to sand that and get it ready for paint

Bumper painted but not cleared lip now fits a little better


rear spoiler painted not cleared

pic to see spoiler not painted (kinda)

Still a major work in progress cant get the front bumper to fit very well

wahoo not bad! i think if you cut the lip in half and widened the center portion it will look a lot better-- so the lip "flare" is the same size as the bumper opening!
love where this is going!

Well I am sending my wheels away so I decided to find my oil leak and hard start problem... Chipped and broken apex seal
anyway I went and polished one housing although the wire wheel managed to get the best of me..
Just picked up my new motor yesterday hope to crack it open today.

Well after some broke tools we got the new motor apart... Not much of Anything was good... My money is gone for the moment so ill pick up the parts that I have ordered in and put what I can back together.
lololol nice battle wound.. i remember when i was wire wheeling and it caught my ls shirt sleeve, and strangled my arm... that was fun lol i hate using a drill with any sort of attachment besides a drill bit. i feel like its such a bad idea bc of the way you hold the dril....
Thanks!
