Hey all, I'm currently studying mechanical engineering at uni and I'm trying to source a motor I can pull apart for study purposes. I have no intention of rebuilding it only to learn more about how it all fits together. Something blown or damaged would be ideal as obviously it would have little to no value. Ideally a blown CA18 which someone has no use for would be great and I can haul it away from u for free :) Do not need turbos/manifolds etc, anything other than the block and head really. Located in Adelaide.

    • Don't think that can fit in physically. Are you referring to this?    If it happens again, I'm going to get the nismo ones.
    • I bought the 1/18 scale celica and nsx from Justin and they are very detailed and good quality. I will definitely be interested in others in the series as they come out 
    • Just install a grease nipple into the centre of the outer steel of the FUCA. Make sure the bushes aren't long enough to touch each other underneath that nipple. Cut a few mm off each if need be. Then you can push grease in there while it is all assembled. That was the very first thing I did (to all 4 ends) of the FUCAs on my 32 when I put Whiteline adjustable bushes into them. They would squeeze the grease out real fast, and I could squeeze it back in faster.
    • @GTSBoy I found the issue (sort of) when I took apart the bushing again, it was completely dry inside! When I experimented with it, all the grease would push out when I would compress the bushings. I wonder if this has anything to do with me putting in the poly bush first on both sides and then pushing in the metal barrel. Maybe I should have put in the metal barrel first then the rubber bushings so the spread pattern is different.   It's fixed (for now).
    • Just redid that entire job. 4 hours, but tightened everything properly. Had to jack the rotor instead of having the car on blocks as there was no room for the FUCA arms to tighten and the j arm. All good now. Cheers for the help!
