  1. Just put a 3.4L bottom end on it, should help response. Easy.
  2. Oh... Goody. They are poly so I thought they'd have some give. Oh well, see how we go.
  3. So, doing my best to make a mess of that nut. Looks like i will either need to remove the rack to get better access to it or drop the k frame out and go from there. Removed the top nut without issue. The problem below is the block on the rack where the hard-lines connect. Stops me getting in there properly. Had a quick look at the passenger side engine mount setup and these mounts are painful as they are multi piece and only one threaded end so you have the get the engine in the precise spot to hold it all in place while you get the nut on. Spare hands might be needed.
  4. Lol I'm not much of a hack Sealing in the rear section combined with the number plate hole should be enough. Started working on engine and trans mounts. Found one mount nut is stripped but i don't need to salvage it or the thread so I'll just get medievil on it. Wait, maybe I am that much of a hack..
  5. Box seal replaced. Easier with an angled rachet spanner. Bolts are all 12mm and you also need cirxlio pliers to remove the shifter. ECU in, noted you can't leave the usb connected because it sits up against the firewall. Car started for the first time in ages. Idles and revs ok. I've already reset the SAFC so it's just a gauge now. Doing this on mobile so can never tell if pics work properly or not. Rotation tends to be an issue. Next job is engine and trans mounts then off to the tuner/fabricator.
  6. That's why I went the kelford, better lift and ramp rate than type B.
  7. Springs are in, not the cams as there was an issue with part numbers, and the Tuner said that tool worked fine but noted the job was painful, fiddly and time consuming with the head on. So for anyone else interested, that tool works and helped installed BC springs, which are 80 or 90lb seat pressure, with the head still on. Thanks for the assistance
  8. Big dollar mounts come at me. See if I can get the car started this weekend.
  9. nah he wants to make decent power and have response, that's no place for twins
  10. Haha, I wish I had something to sell you just so wecould reverse the roles
  11. Yes to fresh head gasket at the very least while you can do it easily. Also homo coolant/vac hoses etc. Springs wont hurt given the boost you will want for 400 wasps.
  12. Gktech said 3mm is fine in hub centric but no wider.
  13. Forgot to show the dropped tie rod ends and roll centre adjutsers. Lets' hope they help.
  14. It's also the reason I don't have an Evo as my weekender despite knowing it's a substantially better platform in most ways. Do want one as a track car though!
  15. I got some good feedback on the M2 and admittedly haven't driven it because aesthetically it doesn't stir my loins.
  16. Hah, nah the 1 and 2 series don't do it for me. I did consider selling the 34, selling the S13 and just buying a really well developed track car and a good trailer
  17. I looked at using those, smallest was 10mm though so I thought I'd end up with guard clearance issues, plus then the front track will be wider than the rear, by default the rear is wider, and in my case wider again as it has the S14 rear subframe.
  18. Yeah I get that, they're very different cars. It's more an indication of my changing tastes. As has been pointed out before though, by Leeroy I think, I talk a lot and am very indecisive. While all this was going on I was still buying parts for the 34 an just dropped it off to the tuner yesterday so I'm not "sold' on any 1 direction. I'll just keep trying to win lotto
  19. M4 comes in manual though...
  20. And for anyone else, Here's how they look installed.
  21. Spacers Consensus on running a small 3mm slip on hub centric spacer to gain some clearance to the shock tower to allow a little more camber? Stock S13 wheel nuts, haven't measured thread engagement just yet. 4 stud car so finding wheels is painful.
  22. You weren't kidding, hot damn
