hey, did you change out the water/oil pump, timing belt and all that? if you did, where did you source the parts? i can get it from japan, but, the way our dollar is… and by the way, she looks sick, nice to see it in the car and running, mine’s still on the engine stand, lol.

Should have gotten an rb25 if you’ve already decided going rb, worth the extra dough… none the less fun to see 🙂 Good luck

Haha yea, money is always an issue… and i figured i can do a very well thought out 20 swap with the cash i had, instead of a hackjob 25. Not to mention i would have put a 20 tranny on the 25.  
Its much lighter first off all, and the 20 seemes to have been a perfect fit.  
NO customization needed.  
Direct drop in.

That was a big seller as to why I did choose what i did.  
So far the cars been great, and i’m definatly satisfied how she runs on the track. Anyone at shannonville this weekend can vouch for how she ran. I’ve never been able to drift like that before, thats for sure lol.

Hey! Don’t mess the with paintjob lmaoo. Meh I hate it really…but thats what happens when your first paintjob goes from awsome to, oh fuck I screwed up the clearcoat. When i did it the first time it looked awsome…but the clearcoat fucked up and i just got lazy from there. MAYBE next season i’ll re-do her, with a clear this time…who knows. I have other things to work on, like suspension and whatnot. I’m going to be re-working everything underbody as fas as it goes for next season, and a front mount. And possibly work on getting a new intake manifold. Something aftermarket to eliminate alot of useless lines and whatnot.  
I definatly need to re-locate my recirc. vlave thought. I have to put stupid washers to lift my hood so it closes, or else the recirc hits lol. I’d think about getting a new BOV but I just love the way the stock recirc. sounds with an aftermarket filter, and its loud to lol.

Thats about it for now haha.

Thanks guys.
