    Yeah the p45's are sick and I love thick 5 spoke rims but I couldnt find em in the right lug pattern. I couldnt find rota slip's in a +25 either. Man rim searching on a 4 lug is tough lol.

        Alright So I got the trans out and cleaned, Also cleaned the crossmember. It had quite a bit of build up on it. Plans for the weekend are to get he new turbo in and get the flywheel and clutch in. I still need to get an inlet welded onto the vf10 and get the bov mount welded to the new intercooler pipes.

        And I settled on rims and tires finally. I will be buying the 5zigen's in a 16x7 at +33 offset. I may run spacers, not sure yet. Tires will be falken azenie's or bridgestone G-force.

        The car is coming together how I had planned. I need to decide who is going to paint it still lol. It looks pretty crazy bieng so many different colors.

                  Alright I know Im gonna get flamed for it. So the reason for the fart can was a cheap fix. The reason it looks so funny is because when I made the exhaust I had a usdm bumper on it. So its actually sticking out 3 inches further than it use to.

                    fart can looks fine, but ffs put the timing covers back on.

                      Ive been meaning to get some. The ones that came on the motor were broken and torn. Hopefully I can get to a yard that has a bp in it, As I still need a speedo cable. I cant find one anywhere it seems.

                        I know cold I have at least one spare upper timingbelt cover. It might even be in decent shape.

                              Thanks, It still needs gtr wheel arches but is coming together. I think I might do a lip on the bumper after I get new rims. Kind of like the one cee has.
