Well right now its get the car painted and windows in so I can move that out of the garage and the s2000 engine in.

I plan to do a full polish on the engine prior to getting it fitted in. After that..... wiring (probably going to be the killer), mounts, radiator, and shorten the driveshaft.

I'm going to keep the engine stock for now maybe some crazy exhaust, but beyond that I'm not sure what direction I want to take it so I'm just trying to focus on the million other things haha.

Boo I loved ur G but this 2002 is going to be a car you will keep for the rest of your life. It is a classic and you have made it better. Prolly going to be the nicest 2002 in the states if not the world. The work you put into this car is just crazy. Everything is done right and perfect, nothing half assed.

Heist i think it would be cool if you did a Lambo style center exhaust tip i know its not oem looking but i think it would fit the rear well.
