Definitly get on that honing, it'll make your engine look completely brand new. Looks semi new right now. Good work.

UPDATE: 11-2-08

Been freaking forever since i've updated. Not much progress as been done as i am saving up and work/school going on. I have collected a handful of parts for the project so far:





Picked up a new never used E-manage Ultimate, a APEX'i EL 1 electronic boost gauge, Megan Mani, HKS turbo timer and Greddy Type-S BOV. This parts collection couldnt be possible without the help of some really good excellent friends annd 240 owners As for the build process. Still waiting to get engine bearings. Need to remeasure the Cylinder Bore to double check so i can get pistons. once thats done i can actually start building. Saving up still, so basically as winter comes close to rolling in, im saving and part collecting while slowly building with hopes to get this done before april time will tell!

Its been a very long time since an update, but with good reason. I got laid off from my job at Nissan due to the rough economy. I was working there for a while saving up alot of cash, and i did, but i got laid off the begining of December so unfortunately the savings have dwindled. I got my old job back, but barely working enough to pay for gas ( im going to school at the same time) So money is very tight at the moment. I am still working on the SR, but im just waiting for money to buy the parts i need. I need to get bearings and the oil pump/ timing chain set up and i can slowly start putting it back together.
