Well the long journey of my build is Done. I enjoyed every bit of doing my rebuild. It took forever since I'm busy most of the time. Just want to thank you to Boyscout for answering my PM with all the Question. Lextreme and Stevechumo who assist me with this project.

She's up and running. Been driving it around and it is a blast. Put a smile on my face everytime . Still need to hook up the SAFC II to do some tuning soon. I'm just driving it around doing the break in process.

Body work and interior is my next step.

Here is some pics. Enjoy.

Still in the break in process. No racing yet.
But I can always take out my SC for run.
