My car's been of the road for 2 months now.. hopefully back on the road in a month if not 3. So I know how you feel (slightly :thumbsup:)

Left her at 240kw.. will come back with 320kw or so on run in, and 400kw when finished..

Can't wait. Have fun tomorrow!

i actually can't... couple of months ago when me and the gf went away I didnt want to go more then 9 days because I wanted my car :thumbsup: but she won as normal... so we went for 10 and a 1/2.

next time we go away i think i'll drive up ;)

jeeeezuz i waited 6weeks for my s15 and was already planning an assasination of the mechanic.

You must have had the engine built.....obviously. Any details on the specs? turbos, internals and ECU

but the question most of us want to know is......................what shop did you take it to???

Does most of you have more than 1 car??

how do you guys mange to do your daily stuff when your only car is in the workshop for like couple months.

I understand it is alright for people who has a secondary car, but for others -- Public transports?

man I am so hanging to get mine, should be one day next week hopefully.

I bought it from Japan on 28 August, it finally arrived in WA and I took delivery of it complied and registered at 5.14 pm on October 21 with a genuine 58221 kms, set of M's pods and a kakimoto N1 Premium cat back system on it. At 5.33 I dropped it off at x-speed and I have not had it back yet......

The mod list is extensive, they promised me 3 weeks and it will be returned.... stay tuned. Let's just say the guys were pretty excited with three boot loads of aftermarket goodies I dropped off for them to install.....

friggin hell i cannot wait

Ive waited 11 months! Still waiting.

Not the workshop though. I sent it to a specialist engine builder who dragged the chain ridiculously.

Cant complaint though, just meant I could pump more money into the rest of the car while I waited.

It will be back any day now and I chewing at the bit waiting!

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
