What a beautiful engine

My car is still in its last stages of it's customization where the Gt2 clutch conversion requires some work . I just love looking at the engine and have appreciated that the guys working on it have taken the time to show me the step by step. Each day I get a little e mail and this was todays. I should have my car back next week and then I will post a review. In the meantime these are a few engine pics in case some haven't followed my other thread. Some might spot the new brakes and exhaust. It's almost completed.

So beautiful !!!

Is the standard bbk that color? Did you have them painted? Are they carbon? BTW, the brake/coilover looks even more impressive than the engine pix. All very nice.

Thanks guys -- Verde -what is bbk ? I'm not familiar with the acronym.
It's the intake --that is carbon . Here's a pic of what it looks like ,

bbk=Brembo Brake Kit ? If so the calipers can be purchased either in red or yellow. I liked the yellow on the black car . They also have several sizes and mine are the 15's .

Yes, its true. After I installed a 2 post lift in my garage I was amazed at how pretty the engine of a turbo from underneath is. Sometimes I just stare at it... I know, I'm a maniac.

I believe that there are two methods and both take time .

1) Take the engine out
or
2) Slither through it
