Annnnnnnd... Just got done with one half of another project. My doors were a bit stained just like the carpet, so:



Perfect? Hardly. On the other hand, it cost me $6.27 to be able to make both doors look much, much nicer. It'll do until I decide to take the time to reupholster them. :D

Hey are those the Brides out Chris's (CARX7) old 10thAE???

Yep. I love them other than the fact that they sit a bit too high. I need to try to get some super low rails fabbed up. It'll be hell if I ever have to wear a helmet with the top up.

OK. First update in a year... My TII motor blew the coolant seals and I had to get another motor. I decided to make an upgrade instead of just getting another TII motor. After a mild fiasco with the engine supplier, I present to you, my new 13B-RE.

I still have a few things left to do, including putting my 60-1 in, getting a new downpipe fabbed, new radiator hoses, etc. but here we go...

The RE swap started as a simple drop in. It quickly escalated by us saying, "while it's out, let's do this..." :) In short order, we cut out the stock radiator mounts, fabbed up brackets for the radiator, oil cooler and intercooler, rewrapped the wiring harness, made a new brake line, upgraded to a 929 master cylinder and booster, and powder coated a bunch of stuff.

So far, I'm pretty happy. I hope to do some tuning soon and looking at the coolant/intake temps. Hopefully, in the semi near future, I will have the car repainted and a new top installed.

Opinions welcome!
