Thanks mate. Yeah, just got my L's 2 months ago, and i dunno, wasnt quiet sure on what was legal to drive, new that we couldnt drive turbo/supercharged cars, but for some reason i didnt think we'd be able to drive a 32.

Out of random curiousity - How hard would it be to put a RB26 in one of these?

Will cost any were from 4 to 7 Gs for the 26dett and that is only for the engine. After you put the 26 in it you will have to get a bigger fuel pump as the rb20 pump will not be able to pump enough fuel to run the 26. You will allso have to get the engine complyed and you will have to up grade your brakes for it to be complyed.

Then you will have to pay someone to put the engine in for you unless you can do it your self.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
