[codyllee]

(Sorry if you stated earlier, i did not read the posts)

I know, your going with a turbocharged F20C right?

bump for more info on the swap!

UPDATE! heres some new pics. this doesnt really reflect the progress that well. the motor WAS already in and running yesterday, but once it got up to operating temp the BRAND NEW cometic head gasket failed, so f**k that company. they bought me a brand new cosworth one so that should be better.

on with the pics.

they did some experimenting with making a bumper support that goes in front of the IC since usually FMIC kits on S13's either require removing it, or cutting out the center section. so if i hit a haybale or anything at an event my front mount wont get destroyed. i think its pretty cool, you wont see it with the bumper cover anyway.

I just figured i'd give you a hard time...

Looks like one nice build up man! Can't wait to see it all completely done!!
That's one badass FMIC too

Not bad man, not bad at all

how much flow do you get with that stock bumper on there? seems like a good bulk of it is blocked.

the bumper support or the cover? either way i should get plenty of airflow. i might just run no bumper when i'm on the track anyway..

 

[buzzbombtom]

yeah i ment the bumper, and running no bumper is gangsta

 

[Bruckhoff_34]

nice front mount. i like how they redid the front bumper support! much safer than running a hacked up one. keep us updated!

A couple of Nissan SR20 motors will pull a premium one week before Race Wars, huh ted.

werd, ive never seen anyone else do anything like it, they said they were just trying out some oddball things with the swap, it sucks that i cant be down there, but i'm picking it up next friday/saturday so we'll see.
