Picked up stock strut braces a new exedy lightened flywheel and clutch, an almost plug and play fuel pump relay and wire upgrade for japan, also got a new 3 core raid on its way and a new tig welder and plasma cutter.

I had the car running but something has not been installed right. there is weak compression on two sides of the rear and I am starting to pull the motor again

Nice build. I like the dremel! Out of curiosity, why did you decide to go with "lambo doors" on the FD?

Good luck with the build!!! Very lucky you did not damaged those housings!!!!

I Forgot about this

So I ended up getting my 7670 ewg, re stacked the block turns out I had lost a corner of one apex seal (I don't even Know) there was no damage so I assume it popped out on the rebuild.

I Had to rebuild the manifold and downpipe the efr with the larger exhaust housing did not sit well in the bay and was 1mm off the intake it needed to go up about 25mm and to the right a little.

I have been driving it a bit its rich as hell. The synapse gate works well so far and the sound is not what I was expecting at all, when it cracks it sounds like a massive bov that is stuck open.


I am building a SMIC setup at the moment.
