    WELP! Lucy is eithier calling for or complaing about the swap. Gave up at a light the other day.

    Found out what the misfire code was about. Seems the timing belt stripped itself on something. I MIGHT re-time it and just drive it otherwise Ill have it towed and start gutting it for the swap.

    Swap is done.

    Ill post some pictures from along the way.

    Ended up with a 6spd swap as well.

    5 spd fix was not worth the money.

    Spoke too soon...

    Setbacks suck. Motor will likely need to be pulled again.

    On the bright side. I am learning ALOT about turbo motors.

    So it took a while but she is back on the road.

    Had the heads rebuilt Supertech valves.

    And than had to pull it again ito have valves adjusted.

    Has a few leaks I am currently chasing but is otherwise good to go.

    A bit paranoid while driving

    Also got around to installing my exhaust.

    Blitz Nur Spec Type R.

    I will be ordering a silencer probably but anything is better than the open DP I had before.

    Friend was nice enough to help me extende the mid pipe with some stainless.

    I have about 700 miles on the engine now.

    Tune is for the 29th of July. Got my base map pulled a TON of boost and timing out feels nice though. Fixed all the leaks. Oil/coolant etc. Turned off all the light except the airbag light I still need to figure out. Might have to pull the dash to fix the heater core and blower motor controller but we shall see. All in all very happy to drive it. Much more comfortable.

    Might need to sort some suspensions noises but the brakes are all good to go now after figuring out dust shield noise and replacing seized calipers.

    Wow. Its already been about a year since my swap.

    Still a few things to sort out. Mainly need to swap the spindle to the correct type for the tone ring and the airbag light.

    Otherwise just doing some Boxerfest prep for this year.

    Stay tuned for pictures. Lots of goodies getting installed!
