cheaper if I make it myself and to my own taste

The connectors are already ordered though

I'm getting the X-Mas feeling already

this is to be posted soon and will hopefully arrive next week:

doesn't include any Honda parts but 26kg (58lb) of 4AGE goodness
custom pistons and rods, spare crank and valve covers, new water pump and more
also already received my COP connectors, rebuildable filter and new Project-Levin

following up the above problem - I forgot to post the fact Toyota is still awesome and here's why:

click it to get the huge version in all it's glory.

This used to be made out of super thin steel that will corrode after years of use and they made a new version despite the fact are cars are out of production (this piece is solely used on 4AGE).

I may be mistaken.... but I believe it is only used in rwd 4AGE applications... making it rarer still

So as promised here some pictures or just a teaser as for the first time ever in almost 2 years I'm living in this country it's raining for more than 15min (5hours and counting so far) - so I'm going for a drive to capture the mayhem on the streets



more to follow once I'm back

[Bean]

The rain stopped as soon as I got in the car non the less I went for a quick ride. I suck at video editing so I only uploaded one scene.
And yes I had and did clean my car after this trip

brace yourself and back to pictures












and here a better side by side picture of the water bypass (old->new)
->

there's more but not today - build will start after Ramadan ends and the machine shop is able to do precision work again

DETAILS -
static CR?
Valve reliefs for stock valves?

Is this a custom piston, or to your specifications? Got a piston job # to share so we can order similar pistons??
