If I get a vr4 it will be twice the work + some but I will end up with two cars. One to drive with stock engine mounts and one to be bad ass. :D
Edit: or and more money
Definitely way more expensive to buy a VR-4 and rebuild both, lol
yeah the spec 4+ is really light with the booster. FYI a RPS max or act heavy plate with a booster feels like the spec unboosted, lol.Quote:

I started in on project "Dirty Sohc", was making good progress with the help of a buddy and then the females wanted food. So we went out to eat instead. Just need to undo the downpipe and cut the timing belt and the heads will come off.
Hard to believe but that sounds great! lolQuote:

i bought a set of 16" oem rims from a 91 RT parts car for 150 and also threw in the valve cover gaskets with them. i started cleaning them up and restoring them. still wondering if i should keep them (i really bought them just because i know theyre hard to find but i cant use them lol) but who knows. it rained today so i didnt drive the cars or anything.
still trying to find a decent shop that i could possibly farm out replacing the head gasket and do 120k maintenance on it at the same time. only estimate i have so far is 3200 dollars and to me thats way too much. id send it to ninja in a heartbeat but their waiting list is huge
