      Been stocking up on some parts...



      The motor is rebuilt and ready to go, just waiting on body shop guys to get their ass in gear and paint the engine bay.

        Did some late night wrenching with some buddies and finally pulled the motor out, hoping to have the bay painted this week so the swap can get going... Drift events start in about a month, gotta get my ass in gear.





        We also test fitted some wheels on my daily and pulled some collars off the coilovers on my buddy's 240.

          Nice build! Your new steering wheel looks cool.

            Looks like a mid 90's Accord wagon.

              That steering wheel is sick, and I loooove accord wagons. Can't wait to see more progress on the vert.

                  Got in what's hopefully some of the last parts I'll need to buy for this pile of bajunk before the swap... BMW 2002 brake booster and CNC staging brake.



                  And had the real camera out, so I snapped a picture of the retard wheel.



                  Still waiting on the body shop at this point.

                            How long has your car been there? I'm in every couple of days either to take care of some business or hang out... See you around.

                                The body shop has been super busy the last couple weeks, so the e30 didn't get any attention, but it's finally getting worked on, the bay is getting shaved as we speak.







                                Also got a really sweet birthday present from a buddy:



                                And it waits.
