My new '08 SSM... K20 turbo anyone? :P

Well, here is my new baby! I've got lots of plans for it... the biggest of the plans is a K20 swap... well, its actually a K20A2 block, with a TSX head and rsx type-s trans with quaife lsd. Mounts and everything are on their way. It'll be running K-pro piggybacking on the stock ECU so that i can retain the throttle-by-wire/dash, and a few other things. Also, at the same time, i'll be building a custom turbo kit for it.... Should be good fun!

Its also going into the tint shop ASAP, and on the outside, i'm only really wanting to do suspension, wheels, and tires... other than that, i'm putting everything under the hood :P

I'll be doing a 'project thread' on this once it gets going of course










Here is the K getting torn down and rebuilt for installation:

Hey, thanks for the warm welcome guys

here's some updated pics... i removed the front license plate bracket (btw, if you have one, and don't like scratched paint, then take it off... or if you buy a Fit, and don't want your paint scratched, removie it before you drive off the lot! 8) )

Also, i got the car tinted finally.... i was a bit tired of the terrarium going on with all 10 windows this things has. haha! Its MUCHO better now!











Thats all thats been modified for now.... i have a few parts to buy yet for the K20 swap, but i'm really thinking that wheels/tires/suspension needs to come first... we'll see :P

Looks sweet man!! The tint made so much difference.
So you reckon the plastic licence plate holders scratch the paint? Damn, I was hoping they wouldnt cos I'm putting my plates on today (eventually) and I got myself 2 plastic holders thinking that it would be easier for me to take them off when it comes to photo time. But if they are going to scratch the paint, then hell no!!! Ill rather tape them on.
