Exhaust got welded up last night, and it's now installed. Replaced the VC. and now it won't start. Think it's a battery being dead issue, or the fact that there was some oil in the sparkplug holes. Will get it running for the show tonight.

Sol finally made it to a show.

and a BIG update. Got my hands on a B18C1 with 160xxxkm!! That'll go with the intake, also got an ITR stock header, i'll be keeping my cable gsr trans (has ITR ratios, better then hydro gsr ratios), blue BWR LCA's (brand new), tein s.techs on tokico blues, ASR subframe brace, AEM fuel rail (brand new).

Got it all off a buddy of mine. He goes thru honda projects like nobodies business. Buys 75% of the stuff, then bails. So I get cheap parts :p

I'm hoping that it'll all be in the car by the end of this coming up weekend.

GSR on the ground

GSR has been mounted in the car. In the process of replacing the valve seals. What a pain in the ass job that is.

By the sounds of it, during the winter might be doing a rebuild.. pistons, rods, port, deck, this could be interesting
