Thanks for the condolences man! But there is still a little flicker of hope.
The belt snapped while I was idling and according to some Honda experts I got a 50/50 chance that the valves are fine.
I will try to do a timing belt job first and be praying to the Honda gods that I'll be in the positive result 50% .lol

If not I got some back up transplant

Hey man you never know. I thought my engine was toast when the belt snapped at 7000rpm on the track. Broke a couple valves but they didn't drop and one retainer. No piston or cylinder wall damage. Best of luck !

Picked up a set of G35 sport wheels with summers, they're not the coupe wheels so they're not forged.
The price was right and they are in good shape, the tires are not bad either.

They don't fill out the wheel well all that well but that's just an excuse to go a bit lower, Needs clear corners as well.

Ahh nice. I figured that after I posted it. Thought it was creekside at first glance. Also, just saw you drive by on Broadway. I was gonna snap a photo but had my hands full.
