I'm curious as to why you're doing an LSV, but want GSR leathers? Wouldn't you want the same flow, or is that just me?

Yes I understand GSR leathers are great and comfy, my partner has an Integra GSR. I'm super picky and keep it all flowing though.

How does the motor choice affect his seat choice? Lol

I understand the flow you are talking about, but the lsv being built its way is the most price efficient for what I want out of an engine. The gsr leathers will eventually be replaced anyways with a full aftermarket set up eventually as the car will be raced regularly.

Just local events. Nothing like that. On our local forums we just all compete for the fastest in the forums etc....I won't do anything like that unless I end up joining one of the local teams.

Autox and drag racing mainly. Then brainerd international raceways road x. We also have proving grounds twice a year here at brainerd which is the best score out of drag, road course, and autox combined in the same day.

Well, Update Time!

Been saving money, and now starting to collect more parts to get the engine done ASAP. Sucks being a broke teenager paying bills and stuff lol.

Got a new camera (Nikon D40x) so have a few pics of the car that I took yesterday for all of you.













The last one was my favorite. These are all currently unedited, but I am starting to learn photoshop tonight so we will see how that goes.

Other than that, just collecting parts for the engine here and there, and finished my audio system for the time being.

Don't currently have pics of the system, but it is as follows

-Kenwood KDC 348u
-Alpine swr 1043D in a custom made box sunk into my spare wheel well
-Rockford Fosgate 600.1D Punch Series amp
-Polk Audio dxi 6500 Component Speakers
-Polk Audio dxi 690 Coaxial Speakers
-Xtant 404m 4 channel amp

As for how my engine is currently going, most of the major purchases other than machine work are done for the block, but there is still a long ways to go sadly.









Let me know what you all think.

Any suggestions on how to store the block, crank, pistons to keep them clean, etc...?

U gunna boost it ? If u ever need any help just leme know
Nope, just mild n/a. It will forever be a daily driver. My next build whenever that is will probably either be boost, or an attempt to beat amk at n/a lol.

I'll let you know, just collecting parts for the next year probably with my income lol. Charlie is helping me out with a lot of it so far.
