| First and foremost I would like to give credit where credit is due. Wouldn't have found a better place to get my crate motor from Kyle at import parts pro. Thank you Kyle for helping me out with the build. Big thanks to twinturbo.net for referring me to him and with all the tech pages you guys provide! Wouldn't have done this myself without your site! I thank EricTTZ from KY for answering all my stupid newbie question and taking the time to help me out A LOT. Kyle has also put up with my questions and was always there to take part of his time to help me out. THANK YOU Vuk at AMS for providing me with his cooling products, BIG ASS radiator, perfect fitment, looks bad ass. Also with his OD waterpump pulley. Great fitment, GREAT products. Ran my car in 100+ weather and has not over heated! I highly recommend any of his products. Heres the quick run down i was currently running a jspec motor which hasn't been running right since ive placed the motor in. Turbos where smoking, noisy valve tick, oil leaks ect ect. With this build id pretty much cleaned the shit outta everything, paid close attention to vacuum lines making sure everything was nice and tight and secured. Took my time installing new gaskets and the use of silicone. I would say this build took me about a month to complete. Working maybe 2-3 hours a day taking my time to do things the right way and not rushing anything like how i did with the jspec motor. Engine has 700 miles now, running strong after 3 oil changes already. Feels very powerful, no hesitation whats so ever. No leaks to be found. On to the pictures! 
i know my wheels are on backwards....
