I know i havent update since feb 2014! i still busy with school and family but finally this time i have time work on racecar build project. I have bad news i found out CPR engine didnt good job rebuild my engine while i wanna check what inside engine then found valve hit on top piston so i have to start over buy new engine parts. One of most happy with CBM motorsport took care of everything!
Also i did disassembly and re-assembly engine but most new parts from CBM Motorsports, let start with engine issue. I went to Pierce College Summer Performance Engine class. I told to CPR Engine i want to refund money for damage but CPR Engine owner said you will happy with engine and valve hit on piston is nothing and no big deal. i still dont trust it for beat engine up at drift track sound like bad idea then i was move on and keep going build project to be continue. engine got new forged connecting rod, bore over .030 forged pistons low compression, valve job, and more. more coming update picture

I plan to order VooDoo13’s S13 Front Adjustable Tension Rods, i hope my front suspension are great increased steering angle. Front Lower Control Arm modded extended 25mm and gussted. The ball joint replaced Moog ball joint but it isn't tight as sitting on it im not sure how to explain like you know when you installed ball joint but it still loose around 2-3mm gap, is that ok? I will add mod adjustable lock stop next week. i still not sure about mod scalloped lower arm for allow knuckle to more travel because of PBM knuckle 45 of correction. I think about keep tein tie rod inner/outer and i already put GKtechs spacing the tie rods farther forward on it. You can see my front suspension setup kind of issue with SIkky sway bar clearance between rim but i haven't install sway bar so i believe do i need mod sway bar cut more short and weld it? I hope you guys can help or correct me whatever i doing wrong.
