Update -

Well the engine is in - Finally

We had to do some funky stuff with the plenum / intake - the runners were too long for the S12 (This FJ must have come from a DR - so I still have some Skyline left in me)

So we chopped an inch of the runners and welded back -

Now the throttle body faces the wrong way for the cooler piping so - chopped the end of the plenum and customized it a bit.

Big Front Mount is fitted

New GTIR Radiator with Twin Thermos

Battery Relocated to boot

Nearly ready to start

1 Week away I reckon - the Pig will be on the road !

Why do my projects always take so long ! ??????

It's my usual MO Baron - Buy a car - spend heaps on it - sell it cause I have moved on - over it.

I call it B-Man's charity to the car enthusiast's market......

The Gaz is gonna rip !

yeah I should know that by now. Can you build up a nice GTR or RX7 for me. Cause right now I feel like I'm half way through a b-man myself. got lots of shit here for my GTR but no real enthusiasm to go with it at the moment. :banana: what the hell is the matter with me?!

Sale = something that is to be sold. when one person wants to sell an item, they put it up "for sale"

it then eventually becomed SOLD which is a pastence for sale or sell.

sarcasm works better if you know how to spell

just saying

I don't think that was GTST posting. It was his diseducated twin.

And bman, the only way your kicking our arses is if you let 2rismo drive it. It doesn't count if you sell it before you race it.

Am I the only one that 2rismo hasn't beaten in their own car?

You watch - 2rismo will sell his car just after he finishes it - The best of us do that you know.

The S12 will be a ball tearer - much more fun than the Cosmo.

Might be faster than the V8 too :P

What? Spend $35,000 on an engine, aftermarket parts, and tuning.... all in preparation for trackwork, and then sell the car a month later???

Who the hell would do something like that???? :domokun:

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
