Crank should be getting balanced over the next few days. So I can finally start putting shit together :)

Got over the idea of cc-ing it. The shape of the piston domes and how it all sits just makes it more trouble then its worth. I already know its going to be between 8.5 - 9:1 so that's all good.

Get it all together and work out what colours I'm gonna paint everything. Sick of looking at the block how it is at the moment. Will look much nicer with some paint on it :)

Haha i have a couple of flat brim hats in the cardboard, the car will be dual purpose Rob just a matter of swapping tires and geometry, just wanna build something crazy and over the top, all my ideas i've wanted to do over the years put into one car.

Big f**k off GT Wing check! Low as f**k check! Massive deep dish wheels check! Sidepipe Titanium Exhaust check! V-mount intercooler/radiator check! Fully stripped out no dash and one seat check! Front splitter and Canards that would decapitate someone Fark yeah check!

Drive it like i stole it and hang the hell on, if it doesn't scare the shit out of me every time i drive it, white knuckling the bastard the whole lap and my arsehole chewing on that Bride seat then i'm afraid i have failed this project lol.

Haha that's brilliant, if you had a passenger seat i would of said you should get one of those dash stickers that say "SHUT THE f**k UP I GOT THIS!"

WTF are they doing with your engine Rob hand build they parts with a hacksaw and file, ring them slack kents up and put some fire under there arse, have you already payed them in full yet?

Haha yeah if freaking love that sticker should put one on the R32 lol

f**k that man you have paid in full it should be ready, i would have paid half now and half when i get it, that's ridiculous man who is doing the build. Does not take that long to build an engine, our Drag engine didn't even take that long, and it has custom built internals and we never paid the full bill until we went down and picked it up.

I don't mind to be honest... I know where it is and shit. JHH Racing is doing it. I trust him and he knows what he is doing. It is because of communication issues that its taking so long.

Shoulda done a JSA before I sent it down and made sure POS.comm was a control...

I hardly think anyone can call Will from JHH Perf. Engineering 'slack'.... Especially not when he builds most SEQ workshop motors, including Godzilla's..... One of the very few he doesnt is Elite's!

He currently has 8-10 motors sitting there..... I sort of doubt Rob's or mine are on the 'ultra urgent' list.....

What i'm getting at is if you generally have already paid something in full you shouldn't have to wait a lifetime to get it. E.g when you order a custom set of rims from Rays that take 3-4 months to be made you usually pay halve up front and the other halve when its ready to be shipped etc.

I know where you are coming from, Ben, but I also understand Will's side too. Total sercurity into the work

nothing worse than ordering $$$$$$ parts and the the guy disappears, only paying enough to cover half.

The only reason I was getting the shits is because I didn't know what the go was with it. Now I do, I have restored faith.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
