ah, bummer hearing about the compression. Which cylinder and how low, out of curiousity?

I'd like to have a motor ready to swap in a day or two if this one takes a shit someday. If I get the other motor together before this one blows, maybe I'll see how far little 2g rods can be pushed.

Trying to bring back good luck into this car...

Going to have Tim @ Powder Keg coat in wrinkle black to make it look a bit cleaner and maybe be a bit more stealthy.

Block is at Gosh and the crank/block are useable. I'll have Shane from DB order up some rods/pistons sometime soon and then figure out everything else. Should be a little bit more fun trying to push that red and maybe put some spray to it.

Damn, that is probably the best looking 2G I've ever seen. I'd powdercoat those RPF's the same charcoal gray as the Evo rims, that just works on that car. Looking good, a fresh motor should really rip. You know you need a stroker though. :D

I'd say powdercoat. Did you paint the center tail yet?

Yea we do, I want to see your 2g!

Thank you sir! I do want to powdercoat them a color similar to the evo wheels, I'm just cheap and can't justify spending money to mount/dis-mount new tires to powdercaot. I was really wanting to go with a stroker but this 2.0 landed in my lap for a good deal so I just went with it. Impulse decisions ftw?

Nah not yet, I want to try this weekend if I can find some time and maybe try and tint the front side markers and pull the stereo out as well.
