As a few of you already know I am starting to convert my NA to TT, So the story goes, I brought this car knowing nothing and grabbed the cheapest deal i could (Was on budget) Purchased sight unseen (Big mistake) so i panic'd trying to get a RWC in Victoria being that it was freighted from NSW. Now knowing i had purchased a lemon with a huge smash in the front end with every bolt near that being bent to shit. I rang Theo after freaking out, he went over some of the things that i got pulled on whilst trying to get a RWC. The mechanic tried to get me on the Littlest things. Theo and i wrote a list and got it all sorted then i met BRYTECH! Wasn't that fun, but anyway. Here i am now thanks to Theo! Information; Me: Dylan, Part Time Uni (Computer Science), whilst working as a Parcel Driver for Australia Post Model : 1989 2+2 NA (J-Spec) Colour : Red Millage : 130,000 (I call Bullshit) Engine/Trans : VG30DE/MT Bodykit: Stock Budget : 10k-15k Parts to come : Exterior - VIS Racing Front (J-Spec Replica-) - WINFactory Wing (Grown on me!) - Set Work Meister S1 3p - $3645 (straight from Work Wheels Australia) - Good set of Coilovers havn't decided yet, either Tein or Powertrix Interior - Handbrake Boot - Gear Stick Boot - Gauge Pillar Engine - Bigger turbos maybe couple GT28R's Lets not get ahead of myself here Will worry about this once my engine is in. - Picture of when i first got her! Engine Pull - 1 of many safe to say. Had some help from a mate to get it out, was the first time iv'e done anything like this good learning curve for me. Over a couple of days had it all out and on a crate, was trying to sell it to John but my (iphone) is a great machine that works 1/5 Days...... So i think i'll hang on to it for now anyway.
So as for now i have a rolling piece of metal in my garage untill i get this Twin Turbo. And here it is, If the price is 100% right will get it home that day. Killer price will leave more information later. Will be doing all of this while my car is going to paint in 2 weeks! Planning to strip and remove and swap engine Was told it has a "Blown" RH side turbo need to suss it out before i hand the spanner. Going in 2 days to have a suss.
that so looks like one of the USDM jade/cobalt green? colours they brought out. why the hell are you spending 4k on wheels.... get the car going mechanically first. it may even be cheaper to just buy the jade one and do that up. that would be the smarter thing to do.
Engine first then wheels of-course Frysie, is there a chance i could drive it with a blown seal on the RH turbo (carefully) ofc
Yeah haha, i've seen some pretty bad shit like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrkNEs4_hRA Lost my shit and spat water all over my screen
