Hi all, this is my 1st post here. Im a HD mechanic working in seismic acquisition as a vibroeseis technician (fix 20-80,000 pound vibrators believe it or not). I may disappear from time to time for week, or even months on end as my work is unpredictable and sometimes overseas, so bear with me.
Bought this 1992 180sx hatch, without an engine, trans, and in many parts.
Bought a 2JZ-GE and 2.0mm Greddy head gasket shortly after
Going to be building a medium sized turbo 2JZ, fabricating mounts, building panels to mount all my gauges, etc. I dont have anyone do my work for me unless i can't do it due to lack of tools (ie balance a driveshaft).
Ill try to keep shit simple with pictures and short descriptions
Engine sitting next to car. Transmission arrives tomorrow.
Need R154 Bellhousing for 2JZ and clutch kit next.
