HX40 FD project, stationed in Finland :D

Hello all, i introduced my car at the Introduce Yourself section and i think im ready to stard my project thread in here

This is my first rotary ever and im loving it all the way and as soon as i get this baby running i think ill be rotorhead4life

So heres what i started with, bad picture i know but it was taken with phonecam


And this is what i have done so far..


The engine is pretty much dismentled and i need to start getting some parts that i dont have yet, including injectors and rails.

And my goal is to get this runnign by summer with this:


Im thinking of getting around 300hp with low boost because the car is allready been driven 110000km and has not been rebuild yet, if i get through next summer without blowing any oil seals ill be glad and start rebuilding then


And for starters i have some questions, can i shave the solenoid clips off from the wiring harness since im running single?
I dont like the look of the wirepunch at all...

And heres my ubrcool wall decoration and the supersmall size carage that im working in
