1st Gen PROJECT: my engineswap: from carburated to twincam injected. (FE--->FE-dohc)

finally the time for me has come to do the conversion ive been talking about with my friend Wezel for a long time.
this summer i will have my GLX converted to twincam or as we like to call it here FE3.
i will try to make it as clear as i can with lots of pics as how i move in this project.
before i started with this i bought lots of partscars to make sure i had everything needed to make this swap possible.

plan is to go with nothing then original Mazda parts. also the centre/hart will be an original ECU.
since my car came stock with the carbureted engine i need to start with taking out my dash to make the rewiring a little less complicated.
here we go.....
