Hello All,

1990 Chassis 210K miles. Recaro sportster seats, new carper, PVC door cards, hard dog roll bar, Nardi steering wheel, pioneer double din, innovate gauges, mega squirt ECU. I painted the car myself, it was very time consuming and costly as I bought two high end paint guns. I sanded, and premiered the car three times because I was not happy with the results. I did get better each time, still not 100% stratified but over all not bad for a garage pain job.
2003 VVT engine I bought with the transmission and mated it to a Torsen LSD , Engine built by Tim at TuffENuff in Phx, AZ, 84 MM bore, supertech valve springs, skunk intake and manifold, boundary oil pump. port and polished head. Upgraded fuel pump, rail, 750 CC injectors. Outside of the engine build I did all the work myself I began the project on Jan 8th, 2023. As off March 10h I am waiting on a day of to drop the engine in but I will not have an opportunity work on getting the base map loaded and getting the engine to crank for about a 2 months as I have a vacation and other matters coming up plus I need a exhaust system. I think the most challenging part will be the ECU and turbo set up as it is something have no idea on how to make work in practice. I share a a super power with you guys of buying a non-running a car for $700 investing $20 on a Amazon fuel pump to make it run until the the head gasket blows and dies and resurrection it with an uncalculated amount of money I would cry about if I knew the actual amount. Many things I am leaving out.

Original state, got lucky the owner was moving out of state and did not want to take it she initial wanted $2000, we hit it off and I got it for $700.


Open to all recommendation from this point on.
