Evolution 9MR street build
Good day friends,
I have been a long standing member under the name Jahtoot but I lost the account due to the email being lost.
I’m currently getting my engine built it’s a 2.0.
stock head
hta71 turbo
stock crank
Manley plus h beam rods
weisco hd pistons 9.0 compression
being built by moon performance out here in arizona.
Hks intake
ets IC piping and 3.5 inch intercooler
1000cc fic injectors
The purpose of this build is for the street (oem plus). I enjoy early morning drives out in the twisty country roads here in arizona. I may do one auto x event a year.
I wanted an oem short block but unfortunately those are out of stock now. So I am in the process of getting my block rebuilt as the compression was off. 168,000 miles. Can’t complain !
currently working on just cleaning up the engine bay while the engine is being built.
after the engine, the goal is to focus on suspension and handling related components.
any tips appreciated !!!!

Very clean. I remember your car from my old account.
good idea with the garage floor. Sticky tiles are much more affordable than I thought.
I plan to do the flooring once the car gets sent off to the shop for the engine install.
you painted that area (under fender) in white after cleaning?

Some more pics of some surface rust
Luckily I live in arizona, dry climate helped this situation over the past 5 years of ownership.
will have to deal with this later probably, focusing funds on the engine build and suspension.
