Wtf! That is some crazy sh*t! I'm happy you found a replacement so all is not lost.. What are your plans with the det? Are you going to pull it apart?

Anyway post up some pics of the cracked block.. I know it probably hurts to look at it but I want to see it

i am experiencing deja-vu

*sigh* and yet some more parts...................


that there's the vvl oil pump kit from gregV, his own custom water pump/crank pullies, new water pump, and yes........s4's!!!


my motor still sucks though! im gonna burn it!!!

ordered my nismo FPR and walbro 255 today....along with an ecu headed to calum for some "realtime."

fukkin motor needs to fix itself...damn crank threads!!! freakin cam caps! BAH! i'll figure it out dammit! she will run by the end of august!!!

EDIT: ha, and my feet. gotta have those to give it throttle!
EDITx2: also got a timing chain and tensioner not shown.

the crank is installed, waiting to install the pistons and button up the bottom end and torque down the head......for i stripped the threads in the pulley end of the crank upon removal. may have to get the damn thing machined.......anyone got the proper tap they wanna ship me and let me borrow real quick?

well guess i was a little frustrated in my previous post.

got the crank tapped and pistons installed today.
dropped the head off at the machine shop to square away the cam caps.
she's coming right along.
i will soon post some pictures once a few more things get torqued down!

ok, so a little more fab work was needed to make the 91/92 headlamps work perfect....or even close to fitting properly. just getting into it though my buddy came home (i was at his house), he decided to casually start wet sanding and buffing my plastic lenses. this was the result:



so needless to say i re-installed the original lights and returned the others for a refund.

he was also feeling froggy and started on a custom guage pod cluster...mint!!!
