Eds ca18det ke70 - the worst choice

[worked]

howdy
thought why not post some pics up of my bus, make you all feel better about yours!!

sold my 20v ae86 and for about a day thought ''cb drift cars, too much drama''
a day later i was on the plane to adelaide to pick this up
now firstly i must point out the previous owner of the car did stress to me the condition of it, so i'm in no way badmouthing him.
the trip back was epic, pinion bearing let go and it made a bandsaw spec noise the whole way home (9 hours not including spirit of tas trip)
i'll post a vid up soon of the noise it made, have never heard anything so loud.
thats cars tho, still the old ca bumbled along for the 900km trip without a drama really. peaked pretty hard too which was a bonus
had barely had it in tas that long and bang, defected, too low, too much front track, no airfilter and a bare wire in the engine bay (just one).
so since then it's been off the road
rust repairs, engine TLC, reduction of front track, guard mods to allow more caster, fixed the mental diff (crownwheel teeth were actually sharp, it had that much play!) fixed the external 'gate, tried to hide some wiring (reckon i'll go a haltech soon, cb your stock ecu) and thats where we're at now
