Well its been soo long waiting for the engine and all the parts to come..
now my room is overflowing and smells like oil. LOL
anyway here are a few progress pics:
the little short block ready to be stripped

the 4g looking dirty as..

everything out of the block.. ready to be bored n honed..

and finally the turbo i picked up for 50 bucks which will be given a new comp wheel, also could someone tell me wat this turbo actually is and where i can find a new comp wheel for it. Cheers
