Karma's S13 DSCI0531

So, I just dropped in an 80k s14 motor, still got a few odds and ends to tie up before its running. I plan on picking up some parts over the winter like coilovers, etc. and ka-t in the spring. and i got rid of that annoying 2 piece driveshaft and put on a 1 piece steel driveshaft.

SHE RUNS!!!

Today was the first time my car has been started in the past year and a half. Its got new life in the form of an s14 ka Twisted Evil

Things kept coming up and i never had a chance to swap in the new motor until recently and i got it started today.

It sounds pretty beastly with the open header.

All i need now is some good tranny fluid. Im probably gonna pick that up tomorrow.

cheers
