UPDATINZ

engine is in went is a treat so much easyer than getting the d17 out. but something wasn't lining up so I was getting irate but I turns out the mount was wrong. also fitted the type r wheel looks so good and complements the gauges pretty well I think. also removed plastics ready for wiring, ecu and shifter cables. not many people know that the shifter box is the sames as a dc5 already WIN!!




















Almost lookS OEM!

Only thing that lets it down is the bay but this is getting resprayed when it comes off the road in winter for boost

This is the mount problem.



this is the mount they sent



but this is the one they should have sent so just emailing and sorting out now but it yet another delay
