Now are you thinking of selling your SE...or keeping it and getting the TII??

Nice car by the way..

Funny thing is I live in AZ. Just north of Tucson!

welcome!! Well I really dont know much about fb's, but I might be able to help you out with the swap if you need to. Also about those clipers, why dont you change them to the 2nd gens 4 piston calipers?? I think its worth the labor and money( which should be minimal).

Thats great to hear. Will you be doing the install yourself?

I hope the AirForce doesn't slow you done on posting here..

yeah i should be doing the install myself as much as i can might have a couple of my friends help me out but im definitely not going to take it to a shop and pay a grip of money for them to do it. i have had enough experience with the mechanics not to trust them to do teh job without jacking something else up. should be buying my jdm motor in 2-3 months at the very latest. hopefully the air force doesnt slow me down from posting here.
