I think you'll need an EFI pump, fuel tank, and EFI fuel lines bro. I'm liking the engine swap though, B16 FTW!

That's okay mate, most people change to EFI fuel lines because the carby ones are smaller (you might have to double check, only read on some forums). At the moment my trim is grey, I don't think any ADM EG's came in black trim though, well at least I haven't seen any :(

It's a metallic grey with a hint of blue, really hard to take a pic of but in the sunlight it really stands out, similar to a lexus gray.

Yep, everything all set up except for the 4 wire o2 sensor. I had obx engine mounts but change back to stock ones because they vibrate my whole car... :\

As requested, took pics of the interior and engine bay

The problems of installing an obd2 engine in an obd1 shell
- Intake piping is too short, had to use some off my roof to extend it
- Air con hose doesn't fit, retarded..
- 4 wire o2 sensor
WTF!!!
