I have since pulled the motor out and sent it back to garageworks to be rebuilt and stripped the car to nothing for paint and cage. This is pretty basic nothing special for right now.

I think i might need some wide fenders or pull the hell out of it until then i am going to run the beater rims.

Well i have gotten some more work done i got the eveything for the motor in with some new shit: earl's power steering line, some Hids, power steering cooler, and everything else the motor needs.

I haven't tired starting the motor seeing as the battery went dead today and i got lazy. And these are my support dogs
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f105/Guildjs/Building%20new%20car/buildpics144.jpg

well the turbo blew while i was braking in the motor. I didn't have an oil restrictor on my t28 as "Vosko" and a few other people helped my figure that out. I should have the turbo back tomorrow and be running for top drift next weekend. Oil came pooring out of the turbo when i took it off.

IMO, it's a track car and it should look like it. The yellow suits it perfectly for it's purpose. I don't know about you guys, but i could give a rats ass about white on track cars.

these are some pics of top drift round 2. I didn't place or anything but i had fun. I am looking forward to ASB later on this month.


I went to drive the car today and the car would boost but didn't make power i think the cas might be screwed up will check timing and see whats going on in the next few days.
