The BRZ looks pretty happy all the time, but that's starting to look damn mean with that fitment and kit. Can't wait to see more.

Nice SC300/Soarer. I love the look of those things man, always thought about getting one but they're expensive and a little heavy. Maybe an SC400 with a twin turbo set up would be good though :))



I've been super damn busy, but I sold the R33 a little bit ago.

The chassis was mangled and so I sold it as a parts car to someone else who can get use out of it.

The engine will not be sold however. The RB28 will stay in my possession for... future use. I have no pictures ready to upload of the R33 being sold but I think I have one or two that I can find of a little before.

Now in terms of honda, I have got lots of work done.

First thing I did since the last update was installing individual throttle bodies for performance (and of course sound) reasons. I may have forgot to take pictures of this procedure.

After that my turbo goodies arrived and I got to work pulling the engine back out of the car.



While it was out of the car, I did as I had planned and got the car all prepped for paint, then got to work laying down a few coats. Next day was clear coat time.



Here it is after rolling it out of the paint booth.

So with paint out of the way and my now turbo'd engine rebuilt, I shoved it back in the car and wired up my boost gauge.

Yesterday I got a chance to take her out for a drive and post up for a few pictures.







So there is my turbo K24 Acura Integra. I quite like it so far.

With paint, I decided against going black (which is what my original integra was)
I decided this is a different car and does not need to be a replica of my first car, but a reinterpretation. I'm building it with a different sense of style and a different budget than I built my original. I thought that was a great car, one of the best I have owned, but it never met it's potential. I think this will step the game up for myself.

Before I go, here is a list of mods made to the engine while it was removed (and during installation)

Precision SC61 Turbo
Skunk2 Carbon Composite Fuel Rail
750cc injectors
Mishimoto Intercooler
HKS BOV, Wastegate, Wastegate springs & gaskets, etc
Go Fast Bits Boost Controller
Custom turbo back exhaust made to fit K24 Integra
Custom turbo exhaust manifold
ECU and ECU tune

also non engine goodies include
Go Fast Bits Short Shift Kit

I've got a few things on order currently as well I'm also looking into getting a Beaks bar and what new wheels I should get. Thoughts on the car? Ideas? let me know.

Do it for the ratchets
