When I pull the motor this winter I'll put extension on fues boxes and harnesses and hide them ...heres what it looks like so far though.

1st off most DSM are old and like any old car they needz somez lovin and care'N. 2ndly I've had alot to do it even though I've only been into DSMs a little over a year. I learn fast, but I owe alot to Andre at PinaMotorsports because he's helped me so much and I wouldnt be where I am so quicky if it wasnt for him ...thats why I let it be known that its his work. I started out knowing nothing about DSMs OR knowing a single person with a DSM. So at 1st I paid for work done to the car. I use to drag race alot, but didnt for 2 years and now I'm back
(it feels so damn good too) DSMs are what I chose to build because its a easy to work on project car. I've learned alot about them real fast. I'm serious enough about my racing and my car that the shop I used to pay to do my work (Pina MotorSports) now sponsors the car. I get to use the shop to do whatever, and if I need help the car gets that too. It's a join effort. I didnt start out building the car, but since then I've damn near done and re-done everything there is to do including tons of tuning. I'm sure you guys know that a project car is never a fix and forget thing ...its always being worked on, and re-worked on
The only thing that I havent personally touched is the bottom end of the motor, the radiator/fans, and the rear end pumpkin, because non of that stuff has needed touching yet.
I guess I posted because mainly I'm just still excited about what these stock blocks can take. I come form a N/A V8 background and this stuff puts a smile on my face.
oh and DSM > Honda

Re: My new best AND with a stock block
Guys, it may be built by "the dumbasses at Pina Motorsports," as high-profile DSMtard Koby would say, but...
1) The guy can drive
2) It's ten times faster than anything Koby will ever own
3) It's something different
If we can get this guy to post some **** I think he'll fit in somehow.

Re: My new best AND with a stock block
Thank I appreciate it guys
As far as Koby goes I don't have anything against the guy at all, but from what I heard he sure does seems to have a chip on his shoulder about Pina Motorsports ....I don't get it really cause I know he hasnt had ANYthing to do with PINA for atleast a couple years .....but whatever I dont care
The car may look simple but it's built to be a runner for sure! I'm not into rice or bling bling at all. I love sleepers! This particular car is NOT your typical unreliable DSM. I think DSM's have a reputation for being unreliable because people dont take car of them like they should. I have spent alot of time and money doing sooo many little maintenance things to keep this thing running top knotch. This car has been completely reliable so far, and I have punded on it very hard all summer long. Hell thats what it's for ....I bought and built the car to pound on it I had that planned from day one .....The week after I got it, the very 1st mod I ordered was a Stage4 John Shepherd Transmission haha.
Heres a MOD the list if Anyones interested:
Bolt-on Mods:
K&N 9" Filter ~ FP 4" Intake ~ FP 3065 Turbo ~ Tial 44mm Waste Gate ~ Ported EVO3 Exh Mani ~ FP 2.5" o2 housing ~ Custom 3” turbo back w/ Magnaflow ~ Cat delet ~ 4" thick Race FMIC w/ 2.5" short route piping ~ 1G BOV ~ (FUEL> 1000cc injectors ~ Re-wired Walbro 255 Fuel Pump ~ Areomotive FPR ~ (((BOLT-OFF's= Air Con, Power Steering, ABS, Rear Seats & Belts, Spare tire/jack, Rear wiper, F&R Wiper Reservoirs, Rear Carpet, All emissions crap delete, and Alternator relocated))) ~ Race Weight 3140 lbs with 1/2 tank Gas
Engine Mods:
Rebuilt 6 Bolt Block with 1G Mitsu Rods, re-used Mitsu Rod Bolts, Mitsu 2G 8:5:1 Pistons ~ B.S. Eliminated ~ Stock 1G Head w/ 3G lifters ~ Dual Springs ~ Tit-retainers ~ FP2x Cams ~ Mitsu 4 layer head gasket ~ ARP head studs ~ Poly Motor Mounts all around.
Engine Managment:
AEM EMS w/ MAP ~ AEM Boost Controller ~ Wide band O2 ~ Peak Hold Boost Gauge ~ Oil Pressure Gauge ~
Drivetrain & Suspension Mods:
Shepherd Stage 4 Trans w/ 4-spyder diff ~ PTT Drag Race 7" Twin Disk Clutch ~ 4 Bolt Rear w/ LSD ~ K-Sport Coilovers ~ bigger rear sway bar ~ Poly suspension Bushing all the way around the car. Also a 8-point roll bar is ready to go in, but we decided to do a 10pt cage, so we're gonna wait and do it all at once.
It should already be a 10sec car if I had the tires to hook-up. A nice 1.5 60ft should get me a 10.7 "IF" the stock block holds up. Either way we are building a nice motor this winter, and I look forward to hiding/cleaning up alot of the wires in the engine bay to make it all look really nice.
****? O RLY?

Re: My new best AND with a stock block
I have a problem with Koby. He has an incorrect opinion on most anything he opens his mouth about, lacks experience, and gets most anything technical/theoretical completely wrong. Now, post ****.
