Hey all, I am not really new to here but thought it's about time posted. I have been a lurker for years here. I owned a red FD3S, but sold it years ago. Well now I am in a position to finally add an FD back to my stable. I am trading a customer a built engine for his evo in exchange for a silver touring model with blood red interior. The car is in very nice shape, has some old school works vs xx wheels. It also has a border exhaust. The down side is the car is a basket case after a rebuild. The previous mechanic hacked the sequential solenoids, and a bunch of wiring. So as of now it's being sorted, and in pieces. Here is a sneak peek of the single turbo manifold I have some what built last night.

Dang, that's cool that you can just jump on a basket case project just like that. Def envy you. Welp, thanks for finally stepping out of the shadows and registering with us, Jon! Looks like you've got a handful there but "from the ashes of death" rebuilds are always great to read and see the pics as it all comes together!

Wow you are like me been on this forum for awhile finally decides to post.


When I worked at a shop before it was interesting how customer would come in and offer their problem cars dirt cheap because they don't want to deal with it anymore.
I bought a few 240 with sr20 that way.

Thanks guys. I'll post progress pics as I have time to build the car.
