Its supposed to be the latest ball-baring iteration. I've been told its the shiznits so I can't wait to get it installed. Sometime next week my Tomei Genesis engine arrives and the build will commence

I got it for $5k with a HKS twin plate clutch and a few other bits'n'pieces thrown in.



Engine arrived today

Work will start sometime this week, just have to wait for gaskets and a few little bits on order. Added to that my current engine has been sold for $3k, I got $1.5k for my HKS turbo and $1k for my HKS LA clutch (s p).
Engine cost me $5k, turbo cost me $2.5k and work will cost me $2.5k (mates rates)
At the end of the day give or take around $5k -/+ for a Tomei Genesis and a FP Red BB on road = + +
