yeah, sticks suck at 1/4 mile, but it is a street car, and i prefer manual... i built it more for fun, not to get numbers.

28-08-05, 18:54 GMT+10#105 yeah i would never go back to auto - what's the point in chasing time slips anyway? there's always someone faster out there

mines going to be another 6 months now , after seeing what maxpsi has done with a rb26 , i have since sold all my SOHC crap , and the old to4 etc and have gone rb26 and a gt42.
here is my head and turbo , similar to brendans , no porting or anything cos the head alone cost me heaps.
but other than my slow progress , i will be out to watch on sat night

04-09-05, 20:24 GMT+10#116 jeez you guys can't stop changing your minds! i'm so sick of driving the atmo thing i just want mine on the road and driving now. thinking of buying the management and putting the engine in now, running MF5 gearbox until the engine's run in. then R33 5 speed and crank the boost up. at least the thing will drive sort of fast until the gearbox explodes
