This is a pretty sad thread resurrection... but I didn't want to start a new one for the same damn car. Anyways.. to see the car at her best please see My vBgarage link below

Some low quality shots





So basically its been about 3-4 years and life has happened... now im back and ready to start working on her again. In the next few weeks she will be getting my old turbo motor (GSR bottom end / B16 Head / GSR Tranny - pistons/rods/crank - Victor x manifold - etc etc)... however she is in serious need of beautification such as a rear wing, carbon fiber hood (used to have one but traded it), interior mods and anything else people can suggest.

If you have any good references for these items and other suggestible mods please let me know

Carbon fiber hood
Wing (thinking type R style)
interior (any and all suggestions)
wheels


Thanks... and woot to thread resurections! :D

Well james (at garage 808 of course) has my ls/vtec motor just about finished (meaning back from machine work), we originally went with some type R speced pistons at .20 over bore... during machineing, the lathe jumped and scathed the block thus they end up paying for the new .40 over pistons and reducing the original bill because of added down time. So the block now at .40 over and fully balanced with a b18 head with new springs and retainers to support the stage 2 crowers cams that i picked up off a friend, added with a few other goodies from my old motor (jg victor x, injectors, hondata, and other misc stuff) she should lay down some decent torque with the help of the b16a tranny that i picked up for a few hundred bucks.

BTW - for those of you in the eugene oregon or surrounding areas.... Garage 808 now has a dyno and is open for dyno runs (except all wheel drive), motor builds, turbo/supercharger/Nos/NA apllications, anything honda/acura or other import model car related. (541-687-8832). Sorry for the promo.... just rep'n for the boys around town.

Thanks everyone for your comments... and i spoke to the photographer this morning and he told me that he used a filter lens for the last pic and that some night shots are in order so i may go out and do some more... you cant really see the CF hood to well in the day light, and i wasnt able to put on the new gunmetal c8's that i picked up.

So with that said, if anyone is interested in some sport bronze c10's... let me know.
