Wow. Now that is interesting

[Piggaz]

Hurry up and rip the head of it, Johnny! 

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

I'm skipping that and going straight to motor/box out, then I'll look at the head and you can come over for some beers and laugh...

I must say, it has survived many many many many track days and numerous anti-lag 2-step launches too (on private property ahem..)

[Piggaz]

fuuark that, big cams are gay on a stock motor.. I would go big cams if I had a built motor, solid lifters, cnc ported head, blah blah blah and rev it's mum to 10k rpm witha  sequential box.

But nah.. it's a stocker heap of shit.

Goal: 400kW stock bottom end.

It can still do it! lol

le siet bok updates, pulled off cat (turbo shrapnel filter) tapped out bits of engine and turbo:

then went onto disconnect all the hoses, accessory loom, blah blah blah. Removed the AC compressor, powersteering pump and cabled tied them both out of the way (don't want to regas because tight arse asian). Removed nuts on engine mount. And yes, something had to go wrong.. ended up snapping the coolant hose connector that goes from motor to firewall. Lucky wasn't the heater core hose fittings. 

And yeah, managed to take off the bonnet on my own, aesthetics - not really I've gone fat.

So now, as you may have seen in the WTB section, I'm searching for a motor being a neo or just a built rb25det. Let's see how that goes

Unfortunately with so much going on, I won't have much of a budget to fry. Just waiting on NST to go up in price and I'll sell my shares to build this turd into a glorified fast turd.

You should atleast pull off the head and see how much damage has been done
May get away with new oversized forged pistons if the bores dont have and deep grooves

Much agree with the above. Need a new thread for dosepipes diy rb25 rebuild.

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

so yeah, a bit pissed on straya day but the motor came out.. barely... I forgot to remove the shifter LOLOLOL... 

We were like wtf.. the motor and box was jammed, looked underneath and "f&%k c&_t, piece of shit c¥×t"... so motor back in ish, then shifter out then round 2 and now we're here!

Happy Lunar New Year, also treated myself to a new trolley jack because it's red and red is a good colour during the New Lunar Year lolol.. (I have 2x jacks now lol..)

Also took the box off, and yep that's it for now.
