Default Rebuilding the 300hp GSR (theives suck)

Ok, not 300 but if it had aftermarket cams & a bigger turbo she would've hit 300 :lol:
Pics first...info second....

01 - On the way home from Orlando


02 - How she sits for right now


03 - Who leaves a 90% of a built motor?


04 - At least they didn't cut any wires (they unplugged everything even in the engine bay, so makes my life somewhat easier)


05 - Who steals so much, and leaves a Skunk2 knob?


06 - Who goes through the trouble of stealing the GReddy badge?


07 - Who doesn't take a nice exhaust?


08 - Sexy lol


09 - Poor car


10 - Gonna try and protect what I can (Stage 1 protection lol)


11 - Ok real protection (Stage 2, of course lol)


How she used to look like ...






Anyways, got a call from my friend who recently moved up to Orlando, and he said the car was stolen, stripped, and recovered all within 24hrs. Threw me a price that I couldn't pass up so I took it ($1,000) and drove up there and hit HIN while I was up there. I knew it would be bad...but not that bad on the interior.

We took a loan out for it, so that gives me $3,500 extra to use on rebuilding it + the money I'm getting from FINALLY selling the other Civics. I want to see 350+whp considering he was hitting 285 on 13psi, stock cams, and the small T3/T4 GReddy gives with their kits.

Remaining Mods:
- ITR crankshaft
- Wiseco 8:6:1 low-compression pistons
- Bored block sleeved to 1mm overbore
- Ported & polished head
- Titanium valve springs & retainers
- *forget name* valves with 3-way valve job
- ACT stage 3 clutch
- Exedy 11-lb flywheel (I believe that's what I heard anyways)
- Skunk2 shift knob
- GReddy Evo exhaust
- JDM ITR radiator support (lol)
- JDM ITR grille
- JDM ITR fenders w/ sidemarkers
- 17" Tenzo's with brand new tires

Stolen Mods:
- T3/T4 turbo
- GReddy exhaust manifold
- 3" downpipe
- Intercooler, piping, and BOV
- Edelbrock Victor X intake manifold (i still have my skunk2 never used)
- Edelbrock throttle body
- MSD ignition setup
- Strut tower things
- OEM valve cover
- OEM camshafts & cam gears
- OEM guage cluster
- A-Pillar guages
- Tenzo-R racing seats
- Fuel pump
- Radiator & fans
- JDM ITR headlights (ouch to me on the $$ to replace)
- JDM ITR bumper & lip
- JDM ITR cf hood
- Fuel filter & FPR
- ECU w/ Hondata S200-B

Stupid Things Stolen:
- OEM clock
- A/C vents
- GReddy badge
- Lugnut key but left the wheels (that right there wins Darwin 2006)
- Clutch master cylinder & clutch pedal (wtf?)
- Nuts to hold taillight down but left the taillights (wtf?)

Oh well, most of it shouldn't be too hard considering they didn't cut any wires + I have a GSR to look off of if I get confused + have some friends with what I need so should take a couple months :what:
