    Scored a 2003 ZX2 parts car so this wagon may be getting a new front end conversion as well, and my old KSport coilovers I converted to Koni inserts will also be going on the car when I get some new springs for them.

          Picked up a 97 Kia Sephia for doing the swap. First thing is to tear down and freshen up all the gaskets, grind the valves, new stem seals, new timing kit, hoses thermostat etc.

          Will also be cutting the intake, adding my own touch to it, removing and plugging the oil squirters in the block and few other small oiling system touches, all before I install it in the car.

            Got all my new parts for freshening up the BP, head is ready to be sent off for hot tank and cleanup mill.

            Pistons and rods are all balanced, Oil squirters blocked, Intake cut, heads cleaned up, combustion chambers smoothed out, intake valve seats ground down to remove casting flaws.

            Installing Viper keyless entry, my old K-Sports retrofitted with Koni reds, some more protege dash stuff, and the 15x8 Gold wheels are going back on it.

              Have you considered stealing the keyless entry systems from 626s? They sell the clickers on Ebay for dirt cheap, and it would match the OEM keys.. I'm just not sure if the transmitter is hardwired into the CPU with OEM applications and thus a mess to try and replicate? I wonder if the transmitters are built into the motors or if there is a central transmitter that sends a +1 through the wires to each door motor individually..

              Viper systems are decent when installed correctly, just don't like the look of the key fob.

                OEM systems are not exactly easy to retrofit into another car if at all, and the Viper is easy to install plus its $40 shipped. I have one in the MX3 already and it works great so regardless of what the fob looks like I am happy with it.

                  $40.00 shipped for Viper systems? Jeez, I feel like they went for 1-200 like 6 years ago.

                  For that price you can't do better. You gonna post details on mounting and hooking everything up?

                    It's only keyless entry. An actual alarm may be more.

                    I didn't have the intention to take pictures of any of it but if you can install a car stereo you can handle this. The hardest part is installing the door actuator and running the wires in the factory door harness.

                      Started working on the 03 ZX2 front end conversion for this thing and slowly assembling the BP, but hit a stopping point since I am having going be adding some 10:1 pistons and forged H beam rods that will also be for sale soon along with my injector sets.

                            Carlos sells the plates. Yeah as soon as I can find a 3G rear wagon bumper I will paint match it all including the roof rack.
