thanks guys. Got a new custom exhaust manifold and bits and pieces going on now/next week, should be good

 

its really annoying having 4stud hubs, every time i fond a nice wheel its not available in 4 stud. arrrrrr

 

thats awesome interior

 

you got the tires placed backwards....might want to change that to be safe

 

don't like the wheels and too much red it's almost as if the car is dubbed out

 

On you're way to the wheel shop, swap the right front with the left rear
BTW the car looks good, love the color!

 

damn hot ride! props to the owner ftw

 

Awesome ride. Nice interior too, just get those rims sorted

 

i like the red interior

 

just an update

I decided to pull the motor down as it was low on compression and just didnt feel right. Found alot of problems. Ill let the pics do the talking.






Valve cover off, one of the rockers seems to have gone to a happy place





Head off, pistons have seen better days, parts around the valve recess have gone to a happy place too





motor out



pistons and rods, rods were in great shape



So after taking the engine to be rebuilt and waiting for parts to come, i finally have the motor back and ready to go back in the car. First a comparison between the old manifolds and new

old exhaust mani and turbo









New





Old intake mani





and teh new

 

sickkk

 

and now some pics of the assembled long motor, looking much better than before

 

Some black seats would probably look good and get a little less red.

Awesome car though....... very nice.

Make me want to find a GVR4, not the same thing, but that is the closest we have to an old Evo here in the US.

 

looks great!

 

Nice find, love the older Evos... change the wheels already! just messing with ya
