    Thumbs up My project pics LOOK! 56k= Gross

    Ok Well about 2 weeks ago i got rid of the civic and got this...

    it ran but smoked and found out it had low compression in one cylinder so we pulled the motor

    well we opened it up and we found this...

    A melted piston !!!!11
    well i figued since that motor was trashed why not do it right this time so after a little thought i decided to put this in there...

    from a 2005 STi 25k on it we put all new gaskets, seals , blah blah blah and here it is all assimbled and ready to go

    here is the workspace and an interior shot


    hope to have it running in the NEAR future .. thanks for lookin

    The motor was only $1500? Nice though anyway. Whats up with the yellow fogs, not dissing just wondering. I never understood why people like those, enlighten me please.

    Most people just like the way they look but they are proven to be safer in fog than white due to the wavelength of the light.

    actually, that's not true..... they've been tested and are the same in fog... it's pretty much for the look.
