  1. So picked up new engine and put it in, wont start(Only used block and head from new motor) so something's happened -.- Checking through stuff now
  2. Drifting if it rains or the marshalls slack off at the end of the day Keen once shes working!
  3. I have no working car but now have a working engine. However I need an engine crane and or a way of picking it up. Can pay with money, food whatever. Im near Northcross Torbay area
  4. Hoping to have my car working this weekend. If all goes to plan will be there in her.
  5. So due to my own stupidity I lost my sump plug on the motorway as it wasnt tight enough, Im pretty angry at myself as the engine lost its oil and seized.Wont be recovering from this one anytime soon. So I decide to stop being angry at myself and go asses the damage. Take off the rock cover and all looks beautiful even the oil sitting in the head. So I reassembly and decide if I combine a 1.5m long tube with my breaker bar Ill try turn it over, she just moves so I keep at it. Get the old guy over the road to give me a jump and she fires into life! TOUGH ROADSTER WILL NOT DIE Engines still toast though.
  6. That looks a touch dangerous to be sideways in...
  7. What we think happened is the engine had been put through many heating and coolings at drift days which made the head gasket brittle, then on a coldish morning although the car was warm I hit 7000 in 3rd and it cracked between oil passage and coolant passage. Pretty minor really. Going by what the guy at the head shop said not very well. He is going to tidy up the head though and replace all the seals. Im not going to spend any more on this baby once certed as Im saving for an FC.
  8. I dunno most 4AGES seem to last till 190km... But the 20B would be the most entertaining 3k ever. So the head shop said it looked really good condition and it hasnt gone soft. Its great news!
  9. I dress like its summer, that looks warm?
  10. Youll need to give James a hand some other time as payback.
  11. 210,979Kms. Pretty good run got thrashed every weekend for 2 years. If I was to do a conversion why waste time on a 4AGE when I could 20B?
  12. Sad day, blew head gasket on the way to work. Going take the head off and get a shop to look over it new stem seals and a clean/skim then reassemble.
  13. Camber wise? Also Hachi I lost at that picture. Said it with the accent in my head too haha
  14. I ran over a tyre at Hampton at about 80K from something similar I think Haha Ill have to double check in the video but was probably just me stuffing up. Neals car looks dialed in, do you just use real crap tyres? I found grippier ones gives you a better chance of holding speed (Through Hampton at least)
  15. Haha great vids man that thing sure can do slick 90s handbrake drags. Love the end of the first vid plowing the grass!
