Block is bored and sleeved and we will be using wiseco 8.5:1 cr pistons on Bisimoto rods with the H23 crank which im pretty damn sure is the same as the H23 blue top crank. as for the head its fully built stage 2 turbo crower cams, ill have full specs on the head later.

U better watch out or you'll accidently start a new trend in the tuner community. God forbid ppl actually starting to want to go fast and stop being low and slow.

RandallSharp · #7 (**permalink**) 10-02-2011, 11:33 PM

I wants fast.

I always wondered what your ride looked like. btw those are some funny lookin projects you live in lol

Vanz__ · #9 (**permalink**) 10-03-2011, 12:13 AM

I'm moving away from "Herra Frush", and into "Aggressive Fitment". I like it, but meatier tires and coilovers with negative camber is how I roll.

NOT MY CAR.

So far so good. You got a lot or work ahead of you. You should explain what you are doing so everyone has an idea of what you are doing. Also what happen to the old engine. Good luck with the build Guyan.

looks ghey,

Why did you guys pull the head while it was still in the car, why didnt you take out the whole motor then take off the head once it was out of the car, since everything has to come out anyway?

twokexlv6coupe · #20 (**permalink**) 10-03-2011, 10:26 AM

djp · #24 (**permalink**) 10-03-2011, 12:06 PM

Well, not exactly what I expected to see when I clicked on the thread, but hey, I got to see your car haha.

AcedPRELUDE · #25 (**permalink**) 10-03-2011, 12:21 PM

my other motor is about 98% finished so more updates soon. i will be doing 5 lug swap soon also with new coilovers and 5th gen base rims. i think cars look good hella flush but i just cant do it because of the roads in NY. some people do it but there are places they just cant drive which sucks. why have a good looking car if you cant drive it where you want

yezzzirrr that's how my original piping was routed, thru the hole of the reservoir that i enlargened (hammered

)

then when i deleted AC and PS, i enlargened the hole where the PS cooler went thru the rad support, and ran the piping thru there.

lol gotta do that. might try to relocate it. i need to keep PS cause parking in ny sucks without it. i already removed AC and need to remove the ABS system

yea i could def understand needing to keep PS living in NYC.

ABS i hear is nearly impossible without removing at least the IM. at least now you have the entire head off, might as well..... DO ITTT. DOO IT NAOOOO!!!!!!!
