Hey guys, I just recently graduated with my automotive degree and here is my senior project. I fabricated an Evo 8 front mount intercooler in and swapped over to a ST205 tranny. While doing this I found that my valve seals were shot, I had been burning a hell of a lot of oil, and leaking plenty as well. So I tore everything apart and ended up replacing the rings, main bearings, rod bearings, complete upper and lower cometic reseal kit, resurfaced head, Cometic metal headgasket, Mishimoto radiator, water pump, all timing components, ARP goodies (head studs, main studs, and rod bolts), down graded to an ACT sprung organic disk clutch (the 6 puck went waaaaay too fast), deleted both TVIS and TSVS, rebuilt my stock ct26, SS clutch line, poly motor mounts, and cleaned everything up. Anyway, pictures speak for themselves. Let me know what you all think.

My splash guard found its way to the trash somehow, so I cut this out from a road sign we had laying around the shop. Pretty pleased with the out come. Ignore the spray paint, I'll be stripping that off.
