Hey guys, I got my qoute on the FD from rotorsports. It's gonna cost me about $7500 to do what I want. Rebuild the engine, modify the water housings in the block, coat the engine components and the intake manifold, Y-pipe w/coating, AST, and replace the lines in the rat's nest. What do you guys think? I'm gonna wait on the PFC and the radiator. want to do the radiator myself.

i don't think i'll be out, my starter is not cranking my fly wheel, i even smashed the stupid thing on the ground several times really hard, nothing but the click of death occurs, but it will spin when it's not on the car
