Engine is out, g/box is off...bought an engine stand for 50 bucks yesterday, used a chainblock to get the engine out...peice of cake really...easier than putting it back in I reckon...

Pulled the turbo off, will sell it as I will get a better one (that could be almost anything haha) when I build the engine...

Cheers,

Russ

which hospital you work at?

re the build: some pics along the way would be great, also rough costs too. I am thinking of getting an 89 gts when I sell my r33 so with all that extra money I am going to have to do something to make it different.

I reckon u go the 2.3l btw :P

Work at RMH...

I will try and get a digi camera soon to document a bit...will be keeping accurate costs...

Pulled the exhaust manifold off...dodgy bastards who must have repaired it at some stage before me...on the rear end there were three busted studs, unrepaired. That means the first intact stud was the forth one...haha dont know how it sealed properly..maybe it didn't.

Also pulled off the top half of the intake manifold...

Having trouble with the flywheel bolts...very very tight...

HI all,

Finished the teardown of the engine...fark there are a lot of bits...

cleaning everything up at the moment...will send the block off for hot dip shortly and then paint it.

My rb20det workshop manual should arrive next week, that should help...also bought a couple of engine building and blueprinting books off amazon to helpa bit...

Cheers,

Russ
