Welcome to the forums. The 3g turbo hatches aren't really easy to come by. I just happened to get mine from a friend. You can always just get a regular hatch and toss the 4g63 in it though and have a great little car. :D

yea, i know these cars are hella hard to come by, if i can tho id rather just have the complete package instead of swapping everything out, i heard you have to swap trannies and all kinds of crap that might be hard to come by, wish me luck tho! :) and thanks for the welcomes! Pics of my car to come soon

Either relocate Batt or get smaller one
Megan Racing Muffler

and then of course other things down the line like camshaft and cam gear, more internal work done, perhaps DOHC conversion? LSD, OEM CF hood.

Things I have now:

EGT Gauge (Installed, not powered)

Gauge cluster replacement thingy (Installed)
better MBC
