My lack of motivation, elbow grease, and "can do" attitude.

The brackets that came with the ic suck...although they did the job...they are flimsy and will break easy....I'll be making new ones asap!

i just got me a 89 nk3 and im working on restoration too, i plan on posting a build thread too. yours seems to be coming along great. keep up the long and tedious work

Coolant over flow bottle needs to be relocated but that's typical for
most all ic kits....and the two couplers that go on the ic are tricky to install as there is very little room...if you swear enough times they'll slip right in

Also watch out for falling objects....my oil cooler fell and popped me in the forhead...got a nice goose egg dead center of my forhead and look like cyclops!:-(
