17-08-10, 19:42 GMT+10#49 cool to see this car still out n about.
My mate owned the car about 6 years ago, we saw the car parked on the side of the road, we asked the old guy if he would sell it, he said yep and it was purchased by my mate then and there.
He then got a gen VLT engine he already had and put it in, the interior was orginally red but we put a grey one in from rare spares in CHCH.
Good times. P.S I was given the 28 spline diff and is in my garage he had in the car at one stage.

21-09-10, 17:50 GMT+10#60 hello hello been at the engine builders a wile right? and theres a reason for it hahah
they advised me to get arp bolts so i went away and got al the arp bolts i could find which included bring some in from Auz
then rang again to get a new gasket because the one i gave them was pritty sh1t to be honest (it was a repco one) so again went away and found a steel one which should put up with the stress
and finaly the rear oil seal housing which luckly Bruce at all out motorsport had one laying round the shop so he threw it in
so now looks like ill be geting the engine back on friday then throwing it is saturday if all goes to plan
