Heheh yeh :D

The fwd ca-18s are almost impossible to find and even then u cant guarentee that it will be in any good condition and there is nothing worse than swaping the engine cause u can save 500 bucks then realising the new engine is almost as bad as the one u took out.

If i rebuild it at least i get a 12months guarentee and know thats its in good order. So its worth the extra in the end.

got bowfinger on video yeah its a funny one when your feeling brain dead - nah i watched gone in 60secs - yeah i know acting is crap storyline is crap but must admit its better storyline than FnF but oooh the cars

shaun: yeh fair enough. most wreckers give a xx month guarentee on their engines as well though... i went through this process when my engine fried and ended up goin for a 2nd hand engine cos theyre so cheap, and its lasted me since (apart from the screwdriver incident)

paul; there wont be any drifitng for a while, dont worry

Booster, Your right, the ca18 is an old engine, most transplant won't be in great condition.

Niz, He popped down to Wanneroo yesterday, so I had a quick chat with him. I think his Mrs gets pissed if he spends too much of his free time doing car stuff.

See'ya:burnout:

Niz,

I love the cars in both movies, I have them both on DVD, they can never be watched too often:D

Can't wait for FnF2, that will suck, but I love cars:D The acting can't be as bad as High Octance 2, those kiwi's piss me off.

See'ya:burnout:

Yeh alot of wreckers will give a warranty but no wreckers over here have the engine. i found 1 engine with a siezed turbo and it was a rwd. Even if i could get it in which is doubtfull (according to some sources) i would need a new computer or even remap the current ecu for around $500 which is more money again. I think ive done enuff research to come up with a good result form reasonable money.

    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
