So a little history. Have had my 94 st for over three years now. Has had two motors in it. Stock one was neglected so i replaced it with a 95 with half the miles. All the car has done to it is the basics. Short ram intake, exhaust with ebay header, dropped 4 inchs on drop zones(cheap rout i know but im happy with them. Voxx 7.5 rims running 205/40-17s. I love thos car. Cant believe i almost got rid of it for a genesis coupe. Havent done anything to the car in the past year because i bought a bike. But now im back in the car game and ready to spice her up. Have considered many options on what i could do to make then realiable eco friendly cheap slower then a single cam civic motor some pep. Yes ive gone over the 3sgte and 3sge swaps. Honestly there not for me. I almost turbos my car 2 years ago but lacked funds and patience. So the other day i took a drive up to virgia to visit a fellow 6gc owner(or have a one. Hes parting his car). I pics up some goodies from him for a good price. Dont wanna spoil anything. Pics will be up soon on what i got and what my intentions are.

Apologize for not posting any progress, honestly there hasnt been any till recently. Ring broke so i procrastinated for the longest time. Finally found some the other week and came in the mail this past saturday. Also, last friday car broke down. Ran compression test cyl read #1- 0 #2- 15 #3- 5 #4- 150 Pretty sure the head lifted. Anyways, got the ring i needed, bottom end is all ready to go. Head got sent off this morning and should be back friday hopefully. Meaning, saturday she'll be going in.
