Yeah plans have changed alot! I just had a look on the last page and i was going rb25/30, gt35, trimatic. Its somehow changed to 26/30, t72, glide etc and is obviously costing a hell of a lot more $$ and taking more time than i thought.
Kyles doing the head as we speak and ill get onto sorting out the bottom end soon. Hopefully have the engine in b4 christmas then have to get a box, exhaust, injectors and wire it all up. Still a fair way off though

Dude, I knew your car was nice, but not that fcuking nice!! It looks like automotive porn with those FR19's on it, wise choice Don't scratch the bay puttin the engine it!! I think I might get the compressor cover of your turbo polished for ya before I send your setup, it looks like it will go to a very shiny home

good question...
look forward to seeing some more pics!
It cost a fair bit. Could have got it cheaper but new i would get a good job so was worth paying for it. Black isnt the easiest colour to do either. If you really have to know pm me
The only thing ive done really is put the stereo in the boot since last update. I have cut a bigger hole in the right hand side to show the surge tank, fuel pumps etc. It will all be polished etc.
I have bought a lot of things lately and Kyle has been a huge help. Kyle did the rb26 head and it has been ported, has oversized ferrera valves, custom lukevl cams, bigger springs to suit etc. I also got a greddy plenum, oil and water lines, Mr Turbo T72 turbo, Kyle exhaust manifold, and a A.R.E cooler 610x300x109. The bottom end is also being put together and should be ready in the next few weeks. Its got cp pistons, argo rods, jun oil pump etc. So yeah alot of dollars spent but not much bolting together yet!
