wow.. i like how clean the engine is now..
however i think the pipes would look better if they were the same color as the engine.

awesome car man...got more pics? biggrin.gif

BTW, that paint on the exhaust manifold, heat shield, and turbo is gonna burn off, unless its 2000* hi-heat paint.

Sometimes we live to beat the odds.-Ryanaim: rkgreen04
looks really good bro! keep up the great work on such a beautiful car
Pressure 2: Thanks for the comment on the Camaro, i watched my dad and my uncle restore that thing from the ground up through child hood, then I added my own touches throughout the past few years, hardly drive it though, its a garage queen, but when I do it feels great! i'll put a few more pics later today:) And the paint wont burn off, its held up on my RX for about 2 years with out flakin out lol, and underneath there is ceramic paint too.

Ryan: the AE86 project is exactly that lol
its an 84 Corolla Sr5 hatch, completely stripped, with a 4agze from a mr2 supercharged my friend bought specifically for the transplant, as well as the 88 corolla gts coupe that we bought at a junkyard minutes before they were going to CRUSH it, its rear quarter panel is smashed, but the drivetrain is still good, lsd rear end, tranny, and Bluetop 4aG.

here is the link to the walk-through of the Hatchi:
