Since the engine bay was pretty bare I decided to go ahead and paint the bay. My last car was bright purple, but the previous owner didn't paint any of the jambs or bay to match so the original white stuck out pretty bad. I decided to go with a simple black since it matches pretty much everything. I plan on painting the car in the future and wanted something simple that would go with it.
The below pictures are the three stages of the paint job. The first is after I cleaned/washed the engine bay, the second is after I did a layer of primer, and the last is the final black.

Set aside a weekend off work to get the engine swapped over. While I was at it I put in a whole new Exedy clutch setup including master/slave and hard/braided lines. Also decided to install a lightweight Fidanza flywheel since I had everything out of the car and knew I'd regret not doing it in the future.
After getting the car towed over to my house I worked on getting my RB exhaust back on, and getting my Megasquirt harness installed. I picked up a relay box from Stu Kelley Motorsports to clean up the install a bit.
