Take the tyiming cover off, rotate the crank to TDC and look at the camshaft pulleys. Take 10 minutes at best.

I was under the impression the timing belt is a bitch to get access to .. ? Can anyone show me some pics as to what I should be looking at precisely as I'm not so mechanically minded (although my dad might be, but I don't trust him with a skyline ..his forte were gemeni's ;D)

Could a dyno power run do any damage if the timing is one tooth out? I wanna be sure there's something wrong before I actually take it back to the place that changed the timing belt so I don't look like a complete tool.

In my mind, there's definately less power since the timing belt was changed .. the turbo doesn't seem to spool up as early or as much as it used to and there's no sudden oomph when it does. It feels like I'm just running on 6 cylinders. Having said that, when the car is idle it's not rough which I've read somewhere is a definate sign of wrong timing ... so it could all be in my head hey?

      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?
