GOAL:
-Get car running with BP6D motor. OEM rebuild and balanced. I/H/E tune for now.
-Running sub 2:00 minutes at the Ridge Motorsports Park
-more cosmetic mods/ converting to become more comfortable
Hi guys I'm back from being MIA for almost 2 years now. I had a build thread a while back which the car was pretty much a stock 95 1.8l aside from coilover and brakes. It went on a few track days then the stock motor started to rod knock on me. I didn't have a garage previously and in the area I live I wasn't allowed to work on my car outside the garage so it was sent to a friend to have a vvt motor swapped in. New vvt motor has metal bits under the pan so it was then sent out to have motor rebuild. At some point he gave up so it was towed to another friend's place.
Long story short, we got the car up running after a long and difficult process because the car just wouldn't start. However after around 600miles of breaking in the motor started knocking again in July 15. I was sick of the car so it was sat until now. I have some workspace in my garage now so hopefully that will help.
This build's philosophy was to follow Emilio's 95R before he had the CNC head upgrades.I wanted a simple build so it's easy to fix and reliable. (The race track we occasionally visit is around 200 miles 1 way)

I started this thread so I can get some advice and motivation. I have very limited skills but hopefully I can learn as much as I can. I'm targeting to have the car started before March-April.
Some specs on the car right now:
-vvt BP6D swap running MS basic from Reverant (I've received so much help from this guy. Props to him)
-tein flex 9k/6k, racing beat front sway
-z1 star specs on street, ra1 on track
-stock brakes with ss brake lines, xp10/xp8
-4.3 torsen
-roll bar, frame rails
Track event at the Ridge Motorsports Park
The day that it took 9 hours to tow home :\
