No updates on the motor until I get everything together,

but this will do for now,

the toe was really off but judging by how it sat, another .5 degrees of camber from where it's at now and I should have no rubbing problems.

Also picked up a greddy oil filter relocation/oil cooler + thermostat, gonna be awesome.

oil cooler party! lol

The lack of updates have been due to the fact that I've decided to go all in on the motor and I don't really want to put it together while some pieces are still waiting to be ordered ( I can't afford to buy everything in one shot,

)

so I've been holding off on the updates

Spot the difference!

Kudos to you if you spot what I did to the clusters.

Also picked this up last weekend, dual core, beefy goodness.

H x W x D = 63.3cm x 35.5cm x 5cm

Then there's this thing:

Way cool!

Going all in on the motor is a good idea.

I find that doing things once the right way is always better. You know that if you didn't change something stupid like rod bearings they'd be the first thing to go in....12 miles on the refresh. Haha.

and thats a dope ass radiator! nice snag

Yeah, I figured I'm gonna go for bigger power later on anyways, so I might as well just do it now.

The rad was a steal actually, I had another 7 point cage from a car I parted out recently and we just traded, pretty sweet deal tbh.

Twin disk is nice, early nsx's have em like mine, you may get a little shudder when it's engaging but no biggie.

Oh and 9k tach, sweet!
