OK well this is my first post showing any of my build and its not that the swap went bad just all the time i'm taking to do everyhthing and one small thing turns into a huge project. I'll start by posting a picture of when I first bought my car christmas eve of 04'. I look back and wish I hadn't started modding it.
 I bought my front clip from Z1 in October 04', already had my n/a engine out and waiting. I had it going %100 by January and then by april the turbos were on their last leg. Here a picture after the swap and then after I had to pull the engine back out. I had painted the plenum and valve covers but this time everything is Powder Coated.
 I pulled the engine and put my n/a engine back it to drive it for a while. Well now the na engine is out for good and I have almost finished building my TT engine. I'll let the pictures do the talking. First here is some pics of the engine going together. Still not finished, waiting to get the lower plenum machined for the new style injectors.
 Well I decided that since the engine is out and I will be painting the car soon I might as well make the engine bay look nice while I have the chance. This turned into a head ache but well worth it in the end. This was also my first time using a spray gun and I could not have been more happy with the way it turned out! 
I also got 99' jspec's for my birthday from my girlfriend. I was so excited.
 Hope you enjoyed the pics and let me know if you see something i've missed that I should do.
