ya i know haha like i said i would just hate to buy one and then find mine like 2 days later so the search will continue for now
anyways new pics since i said id grab some,
so took the full rad out, took off the cps and put in the s2 cam seal, got the wires coming through for the conversion when really i only need like 3 at the most haha(rest are for the 02 and vtec) and got the exhaust dropped...
Oh and heres the turbo someone on the manifold(only on by two bolts, need studs for the other 2) didnt end up taking a pic with it on cause i forgot
gonna have to start fabbing up some things like the jpipe to connect to the ic piping from the turbo and it turbo inlet needs a flange made also... Gotta start welding the exhaust and ic piping also
If i dont find my dizzy by the end of the weekend im ordering another one also haha

Is the bottom stock on the ZC? Really nice build though. What kind of turbo are you using on the car?
Stock bottom end for now, got eagle rods which should be here either this week or start of next, and gonna buy some supertech pistons when i gather up some more money, and im running a T28... sorry for the late reply didnt notice you commented
Anyways i got up enough energy and brought my car into my dads garage today, cleaned out a corner and thats where ill work on it for the next bit(buddys 240 was there before)...
Didnt do much tonight as he was busy using the air so i just cleaned out some junk out of the back of the car and put the turbo and mani on so i could make sure it'll clear with the full rad. Which it does, anyways when it leaves and is finished it definetly will be a different car for sure

well went to the shop and took some mesurements for ic piping and stuff, also put on my lower tie bar and opened up 2 of my injector seals, ill do the other 2 tomorrow or something... anyways only pic i got was of the lower tie bar
Well went to the shop today and did a bit of work, but dad got called in for plowing so no welding again
but i had to grind around where the nuts bolt down to the manifold
also opened up the injector seals and put in the dsm's
Also went looking for nuts and bolts at the local hardware store
then got bored and painted my valve cover

So I had to put my stock injectors back in so i can drive it to speedsport and what not... Without boosting cause i wont have enough time to get it tuned.
The reason being is this, which is an update im sure no one was expecting
So my cars getting new quarters and rockers put in(Passenger side are both cut out just need the old metal cut out) and I got my roof fixed which I was so excited for(thanks chad for sunbathing on it:@) and its getting painted all before speedsport
anyways its early and i spent the night sanding my door jams and working on my brothers EG, so im goin to bed think thats enough
but i leave you with this question, moldings or shaved ???? I cant decide right now so im looking for opinions

Got most of the intercooler stuff done today, and a couple flanges for the turbo made up also.
and my buddy put all his interior put back in his 240 after my dad just did the floor and rockers, brake lines and fuel lines. Now I gotta change his clutch and tranny and it will be good to go
The 240 dont belong to the guy in the pic

So oh well ill just drive around and hit up the show from the outside instead i guess

Went last night before I went out to the carshow afterparty and put some of it back together
Pretty pumped, wanna drive it tomorrow, dads just gotta finish the ic piping and the exhaust, and we gotta finish putting it back together
Got the rims on now too with the skunk2 lugs and all my oil lines finished up. Also rock guarded my wheel wells, painted my drums and lip black and put my si cluster in. Dropped the front end again too
