Yeah, I rebuilt it. Still the original engine though. It still ran when I rebuilt it too. Just not as well as it should have.
 Still has basically stock bottom end (rods and such). 2G pistons and bs shafts removed were the only 'power' upgrades. I actually expect it to long outlast my drivetrain. Stock 4G63T's have lived fairly long lives up to 450-500 hp. I expect the next thing to break on my car to be the center diff. But that's all speculation. You never really can tell what will happen next with these little powerhouses. Btw, the car was feeling awesome last night in the cold weather. Seems to be pulling even harder than it did at the track. Going through the tunnels in Morton is always fun. Talk about overloading your eardrums with the entire frequency spectrum. The whine of the turbo, the growl of the exhaust, the pssshhhttt of the BOV, and the downright pissed off sound of the external WG dump (tends to drown everything else out when the WG opens). If you haven't done it yet, I suggest it. Its fuuuun!
