I painted the fuse&relay boxes
The valve cover looked terrible as you can see in other engine pics. I cleaned it and wirebrushed it which dramatically improved the look of it...
Then Masked the holes and engine label...
Primed it...
And Painted it with engine primer and paint
Yet another updated 'Before and After' Set 
It's amazing how a seemingly typical luxury like hatch struts can seem so well....amazing after 2 months of lifting it up by myself lol but they came in so yay!
I can now take pics of my cargo area as I work on it.The rear seat has been removed and I hope to post pics soon.
Wanna know what a car guy's birthday looks like?.....
I have recently decided the order of operations I will be doing on my engine mods: I will get a 3sgte cylinder head from salvage, auction, ebay, wherever i can find one, then i will port and polish it, basically build a new engine that is a 5sfe block with 3sgte heads and all new upgraded internals including oversized valves, custom pistons, new rods, and high strength lightweight valvetrain. After all that gets done (which I dont expect to be done within the year) I will put a turbo on it and start tuning for my 400hp goal!
Wow where to even start?? It's been a while since I've updated my page and I've got a lot to show for that time. First and Foremost, I mounted my tires and 17" Diablo "Concept Nine" rims, will have pics up as soon as i get a break from schoolwork =o
I've also finished wiring all but the senders on my new gauges (oil temp, pres, and A/F) which took an amazing amount of time to do.
I mounted them in the gauge pod and plan to mount the pod asap so i can start doing the mechanics in the engine for the senders.
New Rims have been mounted for a while now but haven't gotten time to post pics so here they are...
Currently waiting for the fuel rail adapter to come in so I can hook up my new fuel system (venom injectors, pump, aem fuel pressure regulator)
If you're interested in my project or have any questions, check back frequently or leave a message on my page, Thanks!
