I want a short shifter. You guys think the OEM Z3 (30% less throw) is a good and reasonable one? I think its like 100 bucks.
As far as the alternator goes, i dont want to part the engine, i want to sell it complete.
God i cant wait until its fully done. I pick up the motor tuesday  | | | | | 04-20-2008, 03:25 AM | #63 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 |

I got the big man jess coming with me to pick it up and look at it If he says go, then its a go, if he says nay, then im leaving it behind. LoL. I will take pics when i get it for those who might be doubtful. I'll even make a mini video with no pauses or cuts showing the crashed integra and the motor within the same frame of the video . Incase someone says i got the pic from somewhere else. Im not trying to be an ass but i have a "history" | | | | | 04-20-2008, 04:36 AM | #65 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 |

I have adjusted my driving habits. Ever since that, ive been getting 23-24mpg lately. I used to always average 20-21.
But yea, ill most likely not do a build thread but more like an update thread of how its coming along. | | | | | 04-20-2008, 05:13 AM | #68 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: 909-281 Posts: 233 |

The pics I took them at night so thats why it looks darkish.
I have a question, in pic number 4, (M4) are the headers suppose to look bent like that?
