Awesome, absolutely awesome. You are going to kill my s52.

Your motor has a lot more head room for power!

M20 porn!

Oh yes! Can't thank you and Shant enough for taking care of me and providing a kick ass product, no doubt the head will flow what's coming :)

I have a spare ETA block/crank I am going to start getting refreshed. I know this motor is going to light the power flame in me... Time to start prepping a built block!

I can take out the bottom locking collar still + these haven't settled yet. I am sure she will go lower :D

Crank scraper is on as well as the pan, working on the timing belt and accessories now.

Looking good Kyle. I know its been said already but the oil filter wont clear the manifold with the oil feed sandwich like that :(

I will get the cutting wheel out and give it another go, also will try that filter, thanks!

Currently i have about 2" of wheel gap, thought about flipping the collar and removing the bottom locker (spun all the way down), which will get me maybe an inch more. I am either going to need to run the 4" spring you offer or trim the housing, id prefer option a.

Should be sitting like mikes car and he's running undersized tires. I would highly recommend sectioning your strut tubes though. To tuck tires means to have no travel.

That is EXACTLY where i'd like to be. 16" rims on 205/45's. Maybe i have something wrong, but at the lowest setting im sitting with a healthy 2" of gap. I have camber plates as well..

Running MR2 rears (2" shorter) with a spacer on the bottom of the tube. The collar sits flush with the top of the tube and everything is spun down.

Make sure to clean out all the gunk that built up around the weld over the years.
