yeah..still have to address engine management and engine rebuild.

Plans for next year include a cusco roll cage
 

I love that color silver as we didn't get it on VR-4s in the states, we did get Kensington grey which is darker however. I would keep it the same silver if I were you. Makes it more original in this hemisphere at least. Good luck!

Nice man. Looks like that FMIC has seen better days.

I was in Dominica about a year ago and saw some pretty sweet EDM/JDM cars when i was there.

Good luck with the car and take some after pics when it's done.
 

damn that car is gonna be sweet, and that color will look awesome with the matching wheel color...good luck with the car and cant wait to see the finishing product...

That's the part I hate /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

That's going to be a very nice ride when you get it done. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif

edit Do you have a heat shield for that exhaust manifold? I'm thinking of getting that same manifold, and I haven't resolved the heat shield situation to my satisfaction yet.

If you will not be running a heat shield on the exhaust mani, may I humbly suggest that you re-install the hood heat shield/insulation?

It would be a shame to have your fresh paint damaged from all that heat your new set-up will produce.
