I agree that it should be taken off and redone. But just go with flat black. You have too much going on here it doesn't look good even if it was done with the straitest lines possible, it still look bad.....
You talk to Tim yet?So to clarify goes in just fine with car off but not when running? Are your sure flywheel is not warped? A long shot but mine had some funky issues when it was warped. Wouldn't go into gear very easy and grind and slip.
Looks like a pretty solid set up, just wondering why you went with a lower compression piston for your set up. I may be completely wrong with my theory but I would think that you would want a higher compression piston to compensate for the lack of rpms you will safely be able tohit. I went with...
I started my engine build a few months ago with a buddy at his shop.I wanted to try something different so we decided to build a 2.3. After a few months this is where I'm at.I have 739 miles on

I'm going to be checking everything I can think of when I get there. Any other ideas?What doesn't make sense is that it got better after I blew a hole in my coupler. So a big boost leak helped the drivability issues, but of course made it slow lolOk so I have been thinking. I know it is...
I had a 3inch hole in coupler and ran better than this. I know there is something more than a boost leak. This not even drivable.I will be doing this when I get home this weekend. I just want to get a few ideas as tow hat to look for before I get to there because I do not have much time...

I agree these cars will be worth something in the future. I am already saving to find A low mile clean GSX and sore It. This will be my graduation present to myslef after college. I am going to get a clean 99 gsx with black leather. If years down the line it is not worth much it will still be...
