Just a cam, springs, pushrods and a trunion upgrade kit...
As far as Ryans STI... It was his in Japan and obviously he couldn't bring it back... So he cut it apart with a sawzall and shipped it back in his house hold goods. Found a shell over here and did a lot of welding to move it all over....

So long time with no update, and no I didnt abandon the car like so many builds..... I retired from the Navy, relocated back to Jacksonville FL, and started another career. When I started the car I had a knocking, so I ripped the motor back apart and couldn't find anything. So I threw in the towel and took it to a builder. Guy came from a recommendation of a friend who had his Terminator motor done there. I felt even better when i found out a fellow NoRotors member worked there. The knocking came from over honing of the cylinder walls. So it got bored .005 over and did JE forged pistons and a few other things... Dropped the motor back in yesterday and will get it put back together in the next few days. Here are some pics of the move, picking the car back up, dropping it back in, and one of Ryan23s STI while it was in my garage in VA..... Also while the motor was out I removed the F body clam shells off of my subframe and changed it to a Vette style mount.

I keep answering for Ryan since he doesnt show his face around here. I had his car in my garage for quite a while and it does 100% fit. His car is running the Samberg subframe. He did trim the webbing on the hood, had to clearance the firewall a little(much like the fast) and he also shaved the MSD logos off and had it hydrodipped. I am quite sure I will be at his place before the week is out, and if you need any pics, I can take them. He still has the car, but he got a new F-type R and between work and that, he has not been messing with the FD much.

Ryan23 has one... there are picks of it in his build thread.... I know first hand that it fits with a samberg subframe and a stock hood. I know he "massaged" the firewall some but do not know if its more than the fast..... If the pics arent working let me know and I will shoot you one from my phone....
