yeah i know its just a waste of money and effort if i just gave up with my car and bought a GTR. well today not much was done cause did drive my car there and was in the sun most of the time so engine didnt really get a cool down to start stripping it to get it out, well tomorro will be bringing the engine down and start changing all the gaskets and stuff, and maybe start stripping the 20 down depends how much work i feel like doing.

[ceffyboy]

sounds like a fun project keep us posted man

[luke20t]

soon u will have power to match looks

[Squishy]

ooooweeee thats going to be mad!

[bubba]

It's not a waste of money! It's all in the name of fun!

(I try NOT to keep track of how much my engine/drivetrain conversion cost me )

[Flash89]

hey guys, well managed to actually get a car to take the engine over to the work shop, but spent some amount of time to get it into the back, it was a ute but had like a paddy wagon cover like thing hehe. all thanks to my big brother.

anyways some custom work was done, i started on making pods in the passenger side for three of my gauges, i have just started with the base of it. will do the rest tomorro then will start on the engine

pics i got here is engine when i got it

engine when finished painting it

engine in work shop

tomorro now will be taking the gearbox in, but i am still waiting for my clutch to arrive as it is still in transit between brisbane and perth.
