roids70 Posted November 29, 2006 Author Report Posted November 29, 2006 (edited) well I'm finnaly back into the speed of things i finnaly have tyres for my 14" hotwire just need some money now to get it taken in for a wheel alignment i've also got up and started on a motor to replace mine as it has been blowing smoke very very badly when driving along. got started today cleaning things up i have most things ( rings, barings sump gasket, head gasket, rear main seal) just need the rest of the gaskets to finnish it off, also getting the motor ready to be sprayed, i don't want to go black cause to me thats just boring, if anyone has ideas of a colour to go with the green or should i just go with the green for the block, with a black engine bay? oh and this is might not be the motor thats getting the efi, if i do put the efi it wont get the turbo Cheers Sean Edited November 29, 2006 by roids70 Quote
Brendo Posted November 30, 2006 Report Posted November 30, 2006 looking good man, spray the block bright orange and have black engine bay would be cool but that wouldnt go with the car if its green lol Quote

roids70 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Report Posted December 6, 2006 ok so the time came oround to putting the new motor in and i was planing on using the head off the old motor so i took it off and i was pissed off but so happy at the same time as i found i have an original 13T block with pistons they are a higher comression by looking at the champer now i have to take my pistons out and the ones from the 13t and swap cause the opnly head i have atm is a 13t one and it wont fit on top of ordinary 3t pistons CHeers Sean Quote

roids70 Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Posted December 11, 2006 (edited) yeh i know i don't have a job atm so its not that easy to get the paint i want at 250 bucks for 4 litres and i am building a monster 3t I'm re building one with efi with decompressed engine with new internals to suit a turbo and I'm getting a turbo put on it! also had an accident yesterday my passenger door got cought on a trailer as they took off and the door cought the wheel arch and the trailer pulled my door forwar and bending the door and hinges it now opens 90 degrees to the car and not the normal like 70 or whatever it is will get a pic soon!

roids70 Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Posted January 11, 2007 ok so its been a long long time since i have done anything but since then my mind has been wondering to and fro, and many opportunity past for t motors and others such as 18r's and 22r's and like 3tgte and stuff like that, then after driving a car one night that was it i decided what i wanted now it not really a surprise cause some people know but those who wont will learn soon enough when i get the motor i will add photos when i get it in my possetion, but just to give you an idea anyway its a standard turboed motor, so hopefuly it all goes well, but i will be getting it in the next few weeks and then from the time that i get it, it will be a full on progress till its done! so i hope i keep you all in suspence and noone can tell anyone what I'm getting Cheers Sean Quote
