Nice writeup man! Coming along fast. How about moving it to its own thread in Gen Discussion so its more searchable in the future? :shurg:

Will there be more heat issues with the P30 pistons since they lack that low friction coating? In that comparo pic.... looks like the MR Integra in the background is a convertible

Thanks guys.

Rob, I'll have pics for you tomorrow when I go back to the shop.

Joe. Yeah, pretty fast she is coming along. Now if I could just get the head and ROM back for the S200 I'd be ok.

Northern cars SUCK!!! The rear bumper support is being replaced, I sand blasted about every bracket under the hood and repainted it all.

As for the P30 vs ITR pistons, no you shouldn't notice much heat difference at all. That coating actually wears off really quickly. The short block with the CTR pistons that only had 9k on it, half of that stuff was already missing.

Verry noice! <borat voice>

And note that the rod studs are wearing jimmys so the crank doesn't get damaged.

Cool!
If you could send them to my email, evem better

those pictures wouldn't be noisy if you were using a canon

Nice write up dave. Looks like its coming together well.

ps. my dad and I stopped at that sonic (assuming it came from the one right nearby) on our way out of town.

I found a way to host pictures from my phone then post them
<--- endless storage :O

nice write-up and some cool pictures davey

Not even close. Canons at that ISO or higher are clean and sharp. Nikon at high ISO = garbage

tell me about it. I really could've used a few more days break

breaks are good... to a point then they sux.

over the x-mas/new year break i will use 4 vacation days to get 11 days off in a row... that will really suck when I am back at work on the 2nd of Jan.

Nah, really didn't care which I got, it came down to the better deal at the time. I think I fared out well considering.

yeah, you really can't go wrong with either. You just have to talk crap about whichever brand you didn't choose.
