Oh yes it is. That's Ama-san's latest offshoot in Italy.

So, if anyone knows anyone with an NA 20B package for sale...

Me too! Finally got them in from FDNewbie after about a 2 month wait. Look on his webpage for the smoked lens type.

Check Speed Machine Performance, they sell a Turbo 20B with 700hp...but im sure they would build an NA for you if you wanted one.

http://www.speedmachineperformance.c...700hp+turn+key

Thats their turbo one. Theyre located in Vista, CA.

Looks good, keep it up!

Evo R's look like *** compared to the RE-A sleeks. I will hate you forever if you went through all this trouble and end up skimping on the one part by RE-A that changed the FD forever.

very nice! Yea, my car has been one setback after another. What was initially supposed to be a 1 year project, is dragging onto 3 right now. Almost there.

However, I agree, there is no better joy, then having one part put on. then another, then another, until it's finally coming together. Your car looks sick!!! Keep up the killer job!

Thank you! My car does look rather sick without an engine... I need to make her well with some 13B treatment :P Since nobody wants to buy it, I'll have to store it and put in an engine when I return. I really want a 20B, but I can't afford that.

3 years... I know how it feels. You're just resigned to not driving the FD. At first it feels extremely frustrating and you want to fix it immediately, but after a couple more minor incidents you get so accustomed to it and you're numb to anything else that could go wrong. You're in no rush to fix anything, and a one year project soon becomes three!

Hang in there, we're both almost there :P Post up more pics of your project - I nearly painted mine white before deciding to go all-out Amemiya blue.

after all these other parts and stuff, i'm too poor to afford a 20B. Notice how the engine bay is empty. . .. i'm so poor, i'm like Fred Flintstone, and pushing the car with my feet.

Yeah the pictures work. Hey you should rotate them around the right way lol. I was seriously going to go white with blue pearl, and if I did I would have picked an "Arctic White" or something similarly-named from the GM paint sample page. What's even more freaky is that I was considering CE28Ns also in gunmetal...

But I'm going a different route I found a wheel that I really really like.

LOL, i'm such a hooker. I wanna get a set of Volk RE30. . . . simply bc they look hot, and the rim name is "RE" . . . LOL. Maybe in 2008. maybe.

Thank you for your continued interest! Hey Chris, I'll help you ditch those non-RE wheels. They really don't belong on a REal RacE car, do they?

[JediMindTrick]You know I can't afford them so you'll just have to give them to me.[/JediMindTrick]
