right now im ripping the motor completely apart lol i got it mostly apart, just gotta get a few odds and ends off the block so i can take it out. rebuild it here in the next few months. im thinking about a small street port but we'll see about that.. my plan as of now is really just to get it going . needs a little more than i had originally thought but im up for it. the end goal is 250hp and go to auto x school in bremerton. would like to make this my DD instead of my corolla haha.

im also looking in to the benefits of running a carb'd set up versus a fuel injected set up...

I love having my FD as a DD its a lot of fun. but I'm ready to break the FD down to the frame so I've been looking for a MX6 M-Edition to be my DD while i work on the FD. Once the FD is back on its wheel's then the MX6 becomes the project car.

the mx6 is a lot of fun to drive. i drive them quite a bit at work and i've got to say it was impressive. it exceeded my expectations. what do you have planned for your FD?

Bckwoods

iTrader: (1)

wow.. lol thats quite a bit to do. when do you think you will start this build?

Bckwoods

i wount be able to start till next spring. i need to retire from the navy , sell the house, finish my divorce then find a job and go back to school. not in that particular order....LOL

iTrader: (1)

holy ****.. thats all a project in itself lol... wow. what are you planning on going back to school for?

Bckwoods

first renton tech to learn the ins and outs about basic mechanics then i got word that there my be a school for tunning opening up in kent. i want to work on cars and help others build the cars of they're dreams......

dtale15

iTrader: (1)

that would be pretty damn awesome. there aren't a whole lot of people that can tune out there.

Bckwoods

i know.... that's why im staying in the area.... cause if this guy does open the school then i will actually be learning the things i want to and not just what a dealer or repair sshop wants me to know..LOL

dtale15

iTrader: (1)

which isnt much i might add LOL. that would be awesome. you could open up your own shop pretty much if you did that

Bckwoods

oh and im looking in to an aggressive street port

Bckwoods

when its time to rebuild im looking at a standard street port. But i want to replace the rotars with what ive herd called racing rotars and have the shaft worked or replaced with something better.

sounds like we both have major projects on our hands ...LOL

iTrader: (1)
