cr34tine

am I able to edit the photos in or do I need to post them separate?

here's the photos of the motor from JDM spares, photos didn't upload right

cheers man appreciated also wondering why the photos in the middle are coming up as unavailable?

finally time to put the exhaust back on, I fixed up the shitty welding job and bolted it back up

dropped the motor in and started putting everything back together, all went smoothly

all on, ready to bold the trans on and drop in

got myself a heavy duty clutch

while waiting to get the gear box back i figured ill do some other things to the car. got some project mu break pads, slotted and drilled rotors, weather shields, short shiftier, cusco coilovers, all new belts and gaskets and much more. after taking the exhaust off i realised that one of the bolts of the cat had snapped and the flanges had been welded together, but the weld was broken which explains why the 34 was so loud.

gear box got sent of to 1110 engineering who replaced the syncro, at a great price and time highly recommend

so i started at work with the engine unplugging everything and getting it ready or the pull and finally got it out after a days work. dont mind the crappy picture

after returning this rb i went to nisswreck and got another one out of an auto with only 70,000km on it and yes i painted the rocket covers ahahah

i figured the head was blown and decided it would be better and cheaper to do a whole engine swap. theres a few reasons why i did this but summary was that the old motor just wasnt running right, was full of oil leaks and i needed to get a gear box rebuild anyway. the syncro in gear 2 was gone... so figured do it all at once. i picked up a rb25de motor from jdm spares but soon after discovered that it was full of rust.

shortly after it started running real rough and lumpy on the way home from school one day steam started pouring out of the exhaust and the coolant overflow was steaming by this stage i knew the car was stuffed

the problem was a little better but not fixed yet so i took my car to garage7 for an inspection i got it baack and they said it has a faulty o2 sensor after driving it around for a few days i opened up the bonnet finding that the o2 sensor wasnt plugged back in

after owning the car for two weeks i realized that it was using around 20L per 100Km which is massive for a untuned non turbo the previous owner told me the thermostat was removed (no idea why) so i decided to put it back in
