"Plastic Vader"...my 02 sc2

[Plastic Vader]

Well, it wasnt going to be much of a build, but when i motor went it was time to get a new one.
This motor was not built by me so im not going to take the credit for it. it was built by SDA and by the guy who i got it from. they did all the work, i just bought it and am swapping it in. I am, however, going to be doing a complete suspension overhaul as soon as it decides to get warm again.

Motor specs,

99-02 Head
- Port and Polished Headwork by SDA
- Decked head- .040"
- Oversized Valves
- SDA Cams- not sure which ones.
99 Block
Forged Rods
Hyper Pistons
OBX Header/DP


Future suspension upgrades will include; springs and struts. front and rear STB's, rear swaybar....and stickier tires!

I also have...
17'' Motegi TrakLites (gunmetal)
Full AEM cold air intake
Tinted Tails
Clear Side Markers
DasPirate Short throw shifter
OBX Silicone rad hoses

More to come. i'll keep everyone updated!

Why'd you take the valve cover off before removal?

That engine is calling for nitrous.

OBX hoses suck, throw those in the trash.

That's a rocker btw.
