Looks great. I, not going to go back and read it again, but it looks like you've done all that for under $1000?
One thing I will note is your subframe. Is there any bracing from the back of the frame to the front that goes underneath the engine?
It looks like it's only the bends on the front that hold it?
Either way, it's a bit of an inspiration that you've done all of that in a couple of weeks at a fraction of the cost of what most people do it in.

why are you selling it . i saw it on trade me . did it sell ??
had some offers but didnt accept any of them i have decided to carry on with it and finish it , it looks 10 times better now with stainless steel headers external wastegate and a holset turbo with a RPS intercooler , just waiting on another gearbox from a aw11 mr2 as the one i brought was of a sw20 and didnt fit. and got a alloy radiator designd to fit a hondacivic and also went over board with a new aftermarket ECU. , the cams have been done and the engine should preduse 230+ hp on about 8psi
need the mr2 aw11 gear box because the ae92 box is the same but the gear linkiges foul on the rear so need them at the front
i just spent about 6 hours wireing in the loom
put it on the trailer and took it down to the cert guy he spent about 20 mins going over it for a box of red , just to make sure its gonna pass when it comes to certing nothing to worry about as of yet.
ill upload some new pics in a week or so
