Thanks! I can't wait to actually start the engine up and hear it all.

It sucks because all my progress on this engine is on hold because I have to get a crank pulley holder to get anywhere else, AND I broke my phone on accident with the wrench, so fml. lol

Thanks guys.
My build is on hold due to budget. haha. I need a better job frrlz.
But anyways, update...

I've dissembled most of my old engine and that thing will come out this week, as soon as I can get that stupid crank pulley off the new engine I can start tearing it apart.
Friday I'm buying my new rings, bearings, timing belt and will be installing everything. All that should go quick, only problem I could run into is getting a shop to press the rods off my P30 and put them onto my PR4s, not sure on cost.
How much could I expect someone to charge for this?

I already have arp bolts for my rods, all new gaskets, new better colder spark plugs. Besides rings, bearings and timing belt anything else I should replace while I have the engine apart? I may be forgetting something.

Btw. I bought this off Amazon a month ago after I seen it at a local Borders store, and this is what I call my bible. :b
I recommend it to everyone who doesn't already have it!

check your clearances with plastigauge and replace oil pump and water pump thats what I would do at least since it is so easy.

there is a lot more things you would do but those are the things i recommend at least.

Alright, I'll make sure everything is good, then I'll double check.
I do plan in the near future to replace other parts on the engine, just wanted some more advice. Cause I'm sure it's not to fun to build an engine then take it apart a week or two later to replace something you could of did the first time. lol :rolf:

UPDATE:
So my new engine is in the car and looks awesome! I painted my VC last week and it was a fun DIY project, it's not perfect but I think it looks awesome! I bought some 10000k HIDs, Blox test pipe and basically replaced everything in my dizzy about a week and half ago. I debagded the car, but still working on getting the rest of the glue off so ignore that in the pictures. lol. The only thing now is waiting on a retainer piece that connects the fuel line to the fuel pump, long story short my dad broke it. lmao. And I'm buying some PasswordJDM fogs next Friday. Here's some pictures guys!

Yep. 10000k HIDs.
I love them, alot of people don't like HIDs.
The kit was only $72 shipped so I thought it was a steal.
