great project ! How long have you owned the ix? I remember us talking about it back in the BEN days, talk about good old days, are we that old? LOLComment

It's in!
now is the fun part... all I have to do now is a bit of wiring, hook up my shifter, put the intake manifold back on, hook up all the wires, accessories, hoses, exhaust, driveshafts, and put the front suspension back on. phew!
I've owned the car a bit over 4 years... when I bought it, I never imagined I'd do something like this with it. it's been a week straight now of working on my car all day every day, it's fun but I'm getting tired!Comment

not done yet, but I went from a bare motor/tranny to having the shifter, driveshafts, clutch master/slave, power steering/steering rack, brake booster, intake manifold, throttle body, oil cooler, A/C and some of the wiring harness/cooling installed.
I still have to tigthen 1 more nut on the rear driveshaft, put on the exhaust, finish the wiring harness, finish the cooling system, and finish up the rest of the accessories. I also have to bleed the clutch master/slave, my brakes, and put my suspension back together. *then* I can start it up again..
on with the pics..
my "new" injectors ready to go in:
progress on the engine bay (still looks like a mess):
shifter installed (I ended up using the stock lever for now, doing a 1.9 in a couple weeks):
I should have it running tomorrow without trouble. hopefully there are no major issues though, this was a lot of stuff to take apart and put back together in a week!Comment
