im starting to think you were serious about drilling the injectors out and using pvc for fuel lines. if you want a rwd car, get a 240 like every other ricer out there. im sorry, but a k20 isnt going to happen for you. i dont think anything is going to happen, except maybe you will scatter the car and not be able to get it back together. be realistic man, high school budget RWD k20 ef?

i was totally kidding about the pvc and stuff. i just want to get the car running to start and then start making it my own. like new seats that are black and blue, or black and green. then re upholstering it. make some boxes for the back and get a few subs back there. its just a laid back summer project. im not doing a rwd k20 don't worry. the engine will stay stock or maybe get a b16 if i can get some friends to help me.
