Looking nice buddy. Keep up the good work and get that puppy assembled. I am approaching 10 years and my fully built engine still sits in my garage covered-up. I have too many projects with too many parts in my garage, so sometimes I just shut down and say screw it until I'm in the mood.

[sldwys]

cheers Dee, YEah man.... good things take time... or a lifetime lol

[float_6969]

Yea, pic of the the dyno chart or we start talking ban. It has been over 5 years now...

[sldwys]

will try snap a pic of the mrs dyno chart... would that suffice for now ?

[sldwys]

Just sold my spare set of tomei pistons, for a cheap price of 600 USD.... Some lucky guy in latvia brought them off ebay..... I was gutted with the sale price... But selling that spare set gave me the confirmation that i could afford these suckers !!

http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f101850483

So... have won these... And they come with 85mm pistons, So working out the 85mm pistons x 88 mm stroke from the tomei stroker crank i have a 1:0.92 stroke x bore ratio! should be able to give her some decent revs!! 9K rpm fully forged ca20det here i come.

Anyway... IF I can sell my other tomei pistons for 750 USD i will sell them... IF anyone is keen let me know! IF not... Ill keep them and make a spare bottom end up for when and if mine ever goes ka-put!

oh yeah.. and no dyno pics cos i broke up with the mrs... got a new amazing one now who is also a lover of nissans... she had a s13 with a 25det in it.... Got stolen though

remember folks. nothing WORTH doing, is done overnight.

when people rush through things, they end up bodging the sh ite out of everything, and its up for sale a few months/years later.

and in the grand scheme of things, 2, 5, 7 years ain't chit.

[float_6969]

How is this project coming along?

[boost_boy]

You had to be bored to go dig this thing up . We all suck with these massive projects because life and it's obstacles is a wicked project in itself. Besides, he's a family man, so I personally understand him. So where are you with the d@mn project, man? j/k

[float_6969]

LOL, yea, that intake manifold of his popped in my head and I wondered where it all ended up. I actually ended up emailing him. He responded and said the engine is at the assemblers now.

[sldwys]

haha we all get a little bit bored some times dont we

floats right - The engine is at the assemblers now - Well known worldwide rally engine builder, Specialises in fj's, sr's and ca
Havent had much else time to work on this, Had our son on March 14th. ( attaching pic ) , Got my Jacked up 4wd for daily driving, My Nissan cima is awaiting some new rims from Japan and a few other bits and pieces. ( when I ask them to actually send everything lol )
Havent brought anything for the car for a while though. except a replacement Osgiken clutch plate as the last one I brought through here with the tomei crankshaft had some broken pieces which needed full replacement.
I cant wait to get the motor back. The guy building it is so oldschool he doesnt even know how to operate a digital camera to email me pic updates.
Buy as soon as I get it back Ill take some pics and maybe sit it in the hole... Then i can slowly start tinkering.

my 2 boys!

Good looking boys, brother Your life's responsibilities literally has shifted, so I understand you 100%. As for the car, it'll be there when you're ready for it.

[sldwys]

Totally have shifted. Its not that we don't have the money for it.... but. Instead of buying a new PWR barrell intercooler, And new suspension..... I have built a Gigantic Deck around half my house, Brought a 60" tele, New HIFI system...... lol.
As we all know... good things take time. It took 3 years to get the engine bay painted hahaha.

[Spawn_CA18]

i worship that intake manifold with ITBs

[sldwys]

so do I mate, So do I lol.

[sldwys]

I have been painting and installing my steering system and been trying to get the front back together and rolling.
So I need to paint a few more of my adjustable arms, and hubs, replace a few rosejoints. and bolt bits back in. So should have some pics in the next 2-3 weeks for you all. No engine up dates yet... I am scared of the bill i will receive lol.Oh well - Whats done is done hahahaha.

I purchased a spare osgiken flywheel setup as one of my clutch plates was stuffed, Also I have some Ikeya formula s14 rear lower arms I will renew and install.

today - I purchased some pretty rear gaurds. The make... im not 100%. But they are 70mm wide. Attaching a pic. Hopfully someone may know what brand they are lol.

[Izento]

So I don't think you've ever told us what you'll be using the car for.

[sldwys]

Who knows.... Drag, drift.... Weekend cruiser lol. Makingthe v8 boys cry... or... maybe ill drive it to work every now and then It aint going to be stored in the garage its whole life thats for sure.
