Just kidding :gapteeth:

Hows everyone been?

Its been a while since ive been on here but I remember some of you guys (Dee and Float).

Ive been lurking the past few days trying to catch up on stuff ive missed over the years :crazy:

Im glad to see the CA section has grown a lot in members and info.

As for me, I still play with Nissans from time to time (thinking of building another CA18 Coupe) but ive moved on to American power for really fast stuff :bigthumb:

Welcome back! Still going strong in here. I don't know when the last time you were on here was, but I swapped my CA into an S14 and ran it that was for a while until I had an oil filter fail and ruined the head and the bearings in the bottom end. I had the engine rebuilt and it was a crappy rebuild. The #2 ring on the 4th cylinder wasn't deburred and it scored the cylinder, leaving me with low compression on that cylinder. So it's apart again getting rebuilt again.

What are your ride(s) now?

Yea I think last time I was here, you were wanting to swap everything into a 14. Sucks to hear about engine failures. Those arent fun :-(

After the 13, I got a 14. Sold that and bought a 350Z and had that for a while. Now im into Vettes :yesnod
