my main plan is to strip down the Type S engine and then throw the head on to my H22a.

until then i need to sort out my tracking issues as ive just chewed up a pair of T1R's in about 3 months :roll: got some general maintenance to take care of, and a few bits that ive been collecting for a while to finally put on the Lude 8-)

would also like to get my 2 sets of rims refurbed but that can wait.

Good call newkid!

So... Not great I guess! :lol:
But:
wurlycorner wrote: UKDM
Get the roof, boot, bonnet and pass side rear arch resprayed again (paint's sunk a bit and it pisses me off) - not yet
Fit one of the sets of EL dials I've had for about 3 years - nope
Fit nuckleustylz chip that I've had for 2 years - nadda
Swap the JDM OEM manifold into it off my JDM - ditto
Get the stainless back box replaced/repaired - get the theme?


JDM
Finish rebuilding the car after the respray - nearly (scope extended so I don't feel so bad about that)
17" rims - YEP! :D
Braided brake lines - purchased, not fitted
ATR or NSX calipers and 300mm discs - no comment
Replacement (complete) exhaust system - all bits are still here, just need it to stop snowing/freezing!
Lowered - As above
Front/rear lips - nope (but see below)
Upgrade the crap speakers - new speakers here, waiting fitting
Fit one of the other sets of EL dials I've had for about 3 years - take a guess? :lol:
Engine bay dressing - does buying reservoir socks count? (not fitted yet btw!)
Add the few more JDM toys this one doesn't already have ;-) - no progress here...
Keep fruitlessly searching for the black/red option OEM interior - Grrr... no-one say anything on this one please :evil: :cry:

So one that wasn't on that list for the JDM is new side skirts - Mugen sides obtained :twisted: 8-) on an IOU :hug: waiting paying, minor repair, paint and fitting

There is still plenty of months left in 2013. Some warmer, dryer weather would be nice!
