So I have finally decided to get back into my fto project and get rid of my old GR engine and get a GPX engine with 160k on the clock.

Engine $800
Mivec wiring loom and ECU $200
alternator, pod filter and pipe $190
Respray $2800
Wheel alignment $60
White dials $30
Rear suspension $80 for 2
Heater core $60
VS wing $120 plus $80 shipping

There is a few more but can't remember it at the moment. Still a fair bit of work to do to get it back perfect.

Gpx engine is in with timing belt, and with metal pipes and new pod filter, racing struts front and rear, bumper back on and new number plates (Mr F70),

Timing belt kit $220
Pipes plus pod filter swapped my GR one for this one, already got the struts a while ago.

Dials installed. Resprayed done and it looks spectacular, especially since it had a dent on left rear quarter panel, damage to the spoiler and boot and roof and bonnet were fading to bad. Got wheel alignment done. Getting engine checked and see if I can get it tuned somewhere. Feels like abit of lag in first gear.
