And less big wheels, but at least you are saving this Rex Gobbles.

Keep the progress coming!

The wheels are only 17's. They look good as hell on the car. The motor had 410k on the clock when it finally busted :(

They cut a hole in the firewall and ran that wiring mess through it. turns out that wiring job is from an accord I do beleive.
Im ordering a p28 ECU and a conversion harness(its 100 dollars and you know its done right).
Im just waiting for time to pull my motor right now.
I plan on painting the car blue with silver metalliacs in the paint. I need a set of door caps still. :(
