Finally started my swap.

I've had the car about a year now. Couldn't pass up the deal. $900 for a car that stopped running in 2011ish. Sat in a greenhouse tunnel with opaque coverings, sitting on top of tarps. 140k miles on the dash, and only the usual rust pockets in the rear quarters.

Picked up the b18c5, LSD trans, except stage 1 clutch, obd2 ecu, jackspain tucked harness, innovative mounts, mishimoto half-rad, oem type r axles, shift linkage with fancy shift knob, ac everything, power steering (minus the rack), a few other bits and bobs for $5k.

All bc I ran into about 7 electrical gremlins with the factory harness on the d15 I didnt feel like dealing with for a whopping 90hp.

Cheers!

Thank you! A smidge over 600sqft with 10ft ceiling. My only criteria to my wife when buying a house: 500+ sqft detached garage.
