Some progress on the gsx. I will be putting motor and trans in very soon

Just put the motor and trans in the eclipse. It was about 120* out today so this is where I stopped. I'll be doing more tomorrow and I'll take more pics

Installed my 3000gt vr4 front cs
Calipers and rotors. Still have evo 8 brembos for the rear to put on. Also installed my megan coilovers, new front axles, and control arms since I was in there.

I have made quite a few changes to my build that I will add to my mod list. I recently traded my fp 68hta for a ported old school fp red with gt35r compressor wheel rated at the 65 lbs/min. I also had a stock head with crower 264 cams which I removed and put my built head on with 1mm over valves, crower springs/titanium retainers and crower 280 cams.

I had some problems recently with my transmission. I put my car on the ground and car just rocked back and forth like it was in gear when it wasn't. So I pulled it out and replaced with another one I had lying around. I just ordered a tcase to match the trans so it will b here soon

Finally got some time to work on the dsm after a bunch of life stuff happening so I'm pretty excited about it. I'm saving up for the tune now so should have that done in the next couple weeks. I really enjoy how the car has come together so far. Even with all the set backs and misfortune along the way I still love this car

Great progress! How much of a PITA was doing the VR4 Calipers? I eventually want to upgrade my brakes but really there is only aftermarket kits (as far as I can tell) for the front calipers.

It was actually super easy. The only thing I did was cut the stock banjo bolt down so it would fit all the way into the caliper. Bertha smith but known chinaloa69 on here makes the brackets. These brakes utilize the 2g 3kgt rotors with 1g 3kgt calipers
