Ok few updates: Pulled out seats and carpet as the previous owner had glued the black carpet ontop of the old green carpet and it was quite mouldy Waiting on head and few bits to comeback then bolting it up and on the trailer to the dyno. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nice sub holes in the back shelf.

Mmmm

doubling up churr i like your car man.

Thanks heaps Davo for all the help with sorting out the head Car should be back together in two weeks and then gotta get cold side cooler piping done and dail in cam Hopefully makes a nice number on the dyno

All good mate just hope it wants to blow the back Tyres off on boost !!!

Gasket group shot Waiting to be pieced bsck

what was wrong with the old cam? wasn't that one of those ridiculous race cams? I thought it was the cam that made ferrets engine so awesome? Was it just too unstreatable? I remember the idle in your car was pretty crazy at one point, not sure if it was this engine or a diff one. Either way, the crow cams are nice, i have a slightly custom ground TX3 in mine, not the nicest thing for the street as it doesnt really come in swinging until around 3k. TX2 should be much more driveable and have nice midrange poke. Midrange=chop on the streets.

Yeah it was just too big for the street and the car had almost no backpressure so brakes were a bit loose.. Should be good now the bottom end still looks good so just gonna keep it till I can afford to rebuild one or it let's go but head should be good now My goal is never to drag it just to have a nice sleeper looking turbo.

Give me ur rocker cover :-)

Replaced window seals today Got this to replace the melted fuseblock

**UPDATE picked up car from OVABOOST performance and it has an electrical issue causing the main power to fluctuate...They identified the problem wire but not what is causing it so if anyone has a AUTO electrian they could recommend please pm me or reply

What wire is it?

the main power? from the battery? to the ecu? from the ignition?

The power from the battery in the boot to the post in the bay is fine and doesnt fluctuate but from the post everything connected there is fluctuating. The previous owner also did some really dodgy wiring under the fuseblock which is why i bought a new one but the wires have been cut and run to different fuses so i'm not sure how to correclty re-wire the new fuseblock. Hence the plea for some help from an Auto Sparky.
