It looks like you are using the ix oil pan, but if the block is from a normal m20, did you weld this together?
I'm confused how you are going to keep the awd without keeping the ix specific oil pan.
Did you weld it up to the replacement engine?318iS Track Rat :nice: www.drive4corners.com

No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

Update 3/28/11
i felt pretty sick over the weekend and decided id be better off getting some rest. today was the first day back at it and i didnt get too much done. i spend more time deciding what to work on than actually doing it. i spent a lot of time dinkin around with my IC piping now that the turbo is in its final place. the only tricky part i have left is going to be mounting the IC and oil cooler an cutting my front valence to fit.
ALSO: forgot to mention some other things i did before i started the thread
full power steering delete
full A/C delete (including aux fan and condenser.)
Today i:
bolted the trans+t/c to the car
re-attached slave cylinder
installed the starter after i had the engine in...such a pain.
messed with the intercooler piping.
installed the downpipe for kicks
mocked up my ignition wires to see how the white paint looks. im thinking about doing the intake manifold the same color at some point. what do you guys think? havent really seen any alpine intakes.
hmmm...ill figure something out.
downpipe
alpine white wire thing
i wish i had an extra inch on that pipe. other than that it should fit nicely.
Friday i will be ordering my WAR chip package from miller. i wish i could afford the maf..maybe later. :up:
