As I type, the rear seat delete panels have been powder coated white and reinstalled.
Lots of under the hood parts are out to Paul's Chrome Plating to be chromed.
New aluminum valve cover and coil on plug plate is being made.
Need to order new injectors and a driver then re-tune to see how much I can get out of this GT35R turbo.

Update:
Had a few parts come back from Pauls Chrome Plating, check it.
I like their quality, attention to detail and the shine is just dripping wet!

Nice looking ride! I've actually been looking for another dsm to play around with. Previously I had a 97 awd auto car with a borg warner S256 on it and a 91 talon awd 5spd car with a EIII 16g.
 
Very sweet! Did you ever get a new battery? I was just having a conversation with someone about small batteries like the one your car has. Back in 02 I bought a Dyna Batt for my Camaro. The car ended up sitting outside with the battery in it and connected until 08. The damn thing was still charged, suprised the hell out of me when I shorted it and it made a giant spart abd burned my wrench. Charged it to full and put it into the booster pack I use at the shop. 10 years later the thing still starts a car like a champ. Just wanted to throw that option out to ya, cheaper then buying a fullsize battery and installing it in the trunk or buying another Odyssey, seems that size battery that make only lasts 2 years or so, if you let it go dead they usually don't come back either.

Awesome car btw, how much are you thinking it weighs?

Man your spot on about these little batteries, they don't like to be drained, this is my second one in 6 years. Now I always keep a charger on them.
Plans are my next phase is to put a full size odyssey in the rear while I rip out the motor/tranny so I can get to the front end and do some up-grading, replace all the rubber suspension bushings with polyurethane and more cleaning/detailing. As far as weight it's about 3700 lbs.

Almost completed, billet aluminum valve cover (shown) and coil plate, then off to the Paul's Chrome Plating before installation.
