Default just a quick update

i know it's the mitsu forum and all but for those who care the B18c is in the car (still waiting on shifter linkage bushing and JDM short shifter) but as soon as they get here she'll be rollin. Gotta break in the clutch so it will be a couple days before i can really get on her but w/ the fidanza flywheel that thing revs sooooo fast lol. here's a pic installed.

Is that the DelSlow Ron? Why not an H22? Not that I wouldnt prefer the B18 myself, its just most always do the H series motor... Looks good though, Clean install.

yep yep and yes money did play a part. the swap was enough as it is. i can't afford my built motor and turbo kit just yet. gonna be prolly a 2 year build but i'm hoping by the end of 08 to at least have my built bottom end. but yes it should be pretty quick. stock curb = 2190 lbs current stripped condition = apx 2000 with 190hp it should be decently quick.

If you turbo that thing all your going to get is a 1 and half gear car. since youll be spinning all day long until you get in 4th lol. thats when FWD starts to **** you off. when you can ever slam the peddle down and go.

Now where are the pics of the car itself
