Well last week i finally started really getting stuff together. I'll recap what all is going on:
Last fall i picked up a bp engine to go in my mx-3, in december the car was rear ended and is now my daily driver (too much damage to fix and still have money to play with the car).
In Janurary i picked up a 93 MX-3 GS and began tearing it down to do the Bp swap in it, i like FWD but my dream has been to have have an AWD car... so i asked around and located a GTR trans and complete rear subframe picked it up two weeks ago.
Last weekend the work began:
i have torn down the engine and i'm now locating parts and looking for a place to get some work done..
plans and parts:
Port & Polish (might do myself)
overboar and dip engine to fit new pistons
micropolish/knife edge crank shaft
balance crankshaft and my b6t rods
i have wiseco forged 10.5:1 compression pistons
3 or 5 angle valve job along with the general head job
alluminum flywheel (ordered today)
stage 2 clutch (thinking about south bend clutch)
i am also considering cams / cam gears and i would love to do turbo... these if i do them may have to wait depending on how soon i can get more money together and how much the engine work will cost me
as to suspension:
i have ground control coil overs
i will likely do koni inserts so i can adjust
if there are any items i am grossly over looking be sure to let me know.. i have pics to put up but i have no idea how so for now:
