Yup Im still building that thing..and have an update for you guys..decided to break down and get the engine "worked" were talking the works on this thing..cryo treated apex seals,spring and someother goodies, oil pump mod as well as oil passage mod and water passage mod (more flow on both) a very custom huge port job on an engine that already has huge ports (25% larger than FD engine).. so custom that only 3 other cars have it now, one being the Falken sponsored drift RX-7. I also decided to go with Volk racing TE-37's could not pass on the price for them. Oh 49 days until we start to leave AFG!!!!
