I would have loved a BW turbo & full race manifold too.. but when both items cost as much as your car x2.. it's a stupid investment lol

This logic is not logical...how is anything that makes your car faster a stupid investment :rolleyes:

So I spoke to my fabricator and he thinks this is an awesome idea...I mean sure i could just buy an aftermarket manifold, and a cheap turbo and gate option and build the same car every body else does....but wheres the fun and discovery in that.....

need to start saving my pennies ;)

$2057 + $1978 + postage = $2,000??

He said half of what its worth :)

The price went down now anyway, it now sports broken sway links lol

You have another fabricator I assume Dave? I don't remember that conversation. lol. I'm sure I could sort out something Artz worthy though. :P

The stainless body Xspurt 1400's are released now, do you want me to buy you a set mate? You can't be driving around on petrol still...

ohh fekkkkkkkkkking shit box.. I wanna burn it (if only it had full comprehensive insurance)

LOL FYI your sway links are no worse a design than an S chassis and an S14 has a 27mm front sway from stock.

Just bad luck IMHO :)

I'll fix that, then something else will break.. like my wideband, it's completely dead now. I bought a new sensor and it still showing HTR...

I give up, I want a C63 AMG lol

lol welcome to the hobby.

Buying C63 = giving up. You're not a quitter are you ;) ?

nooooo just lazy.. bought a new fan clutch, turns out the farking thing was seized.. ended up bending more fins on the radiator to remove the fan (again) - didn't want to dump my radiator fluid and take out the radiatro just to remove the fan

    • 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
