I am finally starting a build thread after having this car for almost a year now, ENJOY!
Pics from when I first got it
Fresh B18B1
New main and rod bearings
Pistons and rings not touched I was told
GSR Leather seats
My Wink Mirror
Engine sittin on the mounts
Pic of the way it sat for 3 months while I was attending college
Finally got it home during fall break, no garage to keep it in
*Spring time* I got the thing together and running but it had no reverse so I had to source another trans, 350 bux!!!!
Maiden voyage with new trans, no brakes though, lol
Sourced some Teg brake calipers from a yard after realizing that the bleeder screws were completely broken off the factory ones, I also bought an ebay catback exhaust, not my first pick but it was cheap
Installed Tokico lowering springs, traded wheels for some better looking ones, IMO, new phone so sorry for the larger pics
Clutch was starting to slip so I thought I needed a new one
Bought this kit from an Ebay seller for less than 200 SHIPPED!!
The old clutch didnt look that bad so I assumed the pressure plate must have been wore out (clutch would start slipping after it had been driven for several miles)
Here is a pic of the old pressure plate
We had it changed in under 2hrs, car was still hot when we started, lol
UPDATE!!!
Started stripping out the rear seats and plastic so I can weld in new quarter panels
YAAAAAY! (NOT)
I got this from my girlfriend, itll look good hanging from my WINK FULL PANEL MIRROR
Put these stickers on, Everybody loves haters, AND BOOBIES!!!
More pics as soon as I finish uploading them
