Well I picked up my buddies '91 CQ as he was moving out of state. He swapped tan interior for a platinum one and started to build an s2 clone. After spending months on a no start issue...he sold off lots of parts....then I bought it while picking up a transmission for my v8 cq.
while waiting on a few missing intake and fueling pieces i whipped out one of these.
then i realized what the true no start issue was...

so off came the head...
snagged a b4 front/hood, a 7a, and a bag-o-snakes
v-banded
034 engine mounts
034 front snub mount
034 silicone coolant hoses
034 silicone breather hoses
new reman starter
new reman alternator
new reman crank dampener
new crank "super torque" timing gear
new timing belt, water pump, roller
ran but sounded like it was missing badly...so Javad@034 hooked me up on a new injector set
decided to test compression on the replacement 7a since it still barely ran.... 0, 0, 0, 148, 148
about 2 weeks ago i toyed with the 1.8t idea and grabbed our mock up 1.8t aeb block/awm head...
here is what i came up with so far with parts laying around
last weekend i built 2 motor mounts and here is where i am today.
so much room upfront its fantastic.
what i have already:
14lb solid flywheel
stage 2 sprung 228mm clutch
aeb engine harness converted to newer 4 wire coil packs
