engine bay pic and what kinda power it putting down?

Looks hot in red

I hate S13's but this one looks good.

 

I'm a big fan of the CA's though, I also had a bluebird with a CA in it and it was diabolical.

hey thanks for the replies,

 

no engine bay pic as new engine not properly fitted in the car yet. hopefully finnished mid next week.

my goal for power is around 280hp atw on around 1 bar. should make that quite comfortably, will update when engine is in and tuned if people are interested.
