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

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

spray it wrincle red and same with your bellhouseing(spelling)

car sounds awesome, saw it today and once you get the body work sorted it'll be sweet.

looking good dude! I do like the orange :P

i think you need a higher paying job :P

 

you should build a monster 3T would be a bit diffrent.. hell t-18's are diffrent

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!

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
