Been a while since I updated:
But, waiting on the the longblock to come in from the machine shop then its down to work. Should be in a few weeks hopefully..
Took it down to Suja1 motorsports in Addison, IL, real friendly people, and was straight forward with everything.
Knew what he was talking about and we got right to work. Very unusual from most of the places I've visited, everybodys backed up for racing season and grouchy as f***. Hah anyway moving on...
Some pictures really quick..dont got much time right now but you get the idea hah

engine removed in about 5 hours i believe

ewwwwwwww

random pic of exhaust

my garage atm, still gotta get some gaskets and stuff, flop out those sensors to the new mani
and i guess ill be runnin a stock header for now till i get the turbo tune with a turbo manifold...
suja1 is a hondata authorized dealer so very convenient for me atleast hah

all for nowww

[dekaf]

greddy ti-c with test pipe

 

[mike_teg]

[dekaf]

never had it installed with engine in, but right now it only goes to the end of the resonator flange

 

[dekaf]

did a lot of work on the car latelty to much to talk about but this is what she looks like now
ill get some suspension, interior, engine bay (when its in), pictures once everything is running

[dekaf]

Update:
removed all the scratches off the rear bumper, it was more of like a scuff of some sort. took a while to get off but results show

before:
scuffs on right side isnt dirt or smoke or anything

after:

i finished painting my front lip cause it was scuffed real bad from the previous owner. all in all i cant believe how well it came out.

day:

I had issues with the sleeves that I purchased and once I finally received the right size I didn't take the time to inspect all 4 and 1 of the 4 ended up having a dented so now I have to replace it which is 150$....

Clean car man. Good job on the lip.

I love the GSR blades. It would look alot better with the retracks if you lower it more.. No wheel/fender gap.
Nice ride fellow VSM owner. 8)
