Alright so I have the motor end to see if it fits like I need it. And Lord and behold I see I need to have slim radiator fans. Hehehe. I'll be taking the head off cause I'm doing a full build. I need to study the vacuum lines and make sure I'm doing everything right. As of Jan 23i will have my second surgery so again I'll be off my feet trying to recover.


Test fitting to see clearances. Decided I will delete my A/C. Well Arizona guess I'll be sweating in this soon or later lol.





The hood I designed and made.



The other angle.

I can also be followed at Instagram @creative_intentionz_cfc

Hello guys i know my moments up here has been long overdue to show up. But my recover is slow and im able to fully walk but huge limp and still pain. Now back to my car the car is in the storage. However after the plumbing work i had my bottom end bored, honed and all my parts are being intstalled to the bottom end. I will be picking it up on the 8th of May or maybe sooner when back from business dealings. However it will have the L19 headstuds, 1400HD Wiesco pistons 9:5:1 87mm, with Manely turbo tuff 14403-4 150mm Rods, ARP main studs, STM balance shaft delete, new 4g64 crankshaft and new woodruff key. Piston rings cut to handle up to 26 psi so when i upgrade to fp black we dont have to go back in. Itll be sealed off with an evo 8 brand new oil pan.

This is an awesome build! Always said a 3g boosted Eclipse is a hell of a sleeper car cause no one would ever except it. Keep up the good work!

Hello fellows i know its been a while. Yes this slow progress has been on the roll since i got my bottom end back from UMSTUNING, thanks to tony and Steven. Starting tomorrow i will be reinstalling the motor pieces at a time. However i have made my fuel pump assembly have the capability to use the 450lph and waiting on stmtuned to send out my fic 1200cc high z injectors.Last things on my list to get for now to get the car going is and ecu non acd for the evo 8 (stock). So I'm slowly installing everything and definitely have to rip out my oem fuel rail to tank line because im going to install a -6AN fuel rail to tank kit from stmtuned for a better flow of fuel.For those of you that dont know i have created parts for my Eclipse to lighten her up with full camo carbon fiber parts and more to make. Now i have my own small business as in regrowing.. Instagram @creative_intentionz_cfc. pics will post up as i install everything.

Another update. Thus baby is almost ready for the shop to do their thing for me. I'm waiting on stmtuned 4mm to 3mm for my digital boost guage to hook up to my manual boost controller, then install my push in 6an fitting an a 6an to barb for my filter to my valve cover. Put in the fluids after I do a run down check to insure everything is tight and properly fitted. So hopefully in 3 weeks to a month itll be in the shop to get the new biss screw in the right position for it too idle at 700rpms, and tuned so I can finally drive her as I finish up. Whst a long journey this has been.

Finally I can say for the build it's time for a tune. So I have two tuners who say they can tune my car however one only tuned with Aem only with a 3g eclipse using an evo8 rom. I nd the other one said book a date but hasn't answered me. Now I'm in the midst of waiting because I dont know **** about tuning.
