    Well they say that Dentists and Air Traffic Controllers have high suicide rates, but after the last few days I can't understand why people who have to do paint prep for a living don't top the charts

    So, I pulled out everything else that might get in the way of painting the engine bay. On the way I thought I would take a snap of how huge the commodore brakes look in the front:



    Anyway, after dumping everything (ie front xmember etc) the car looked like this:



    Then I wax and grease removed, Sanded to give the primer something to stick to, then re- wax and grease removed. After a bit of this I basically cracked the shits and called it a day. So for now one side looks pretty schmicko:



    In other news, my diff arrived in Canberra today so I will go and pick it up tomorrow then hopefully lay down a layer of primer in the afternoon.

    yeah Z is pretty clean. There is another guy in Canberra who might be interested in buying it without the motor or box and then dropping his SR20 in it. I certainly hope that all works because I am keen to see how it all goes in the end

    I figure you must just drive past on the way to work or a mates place hey?

    Robbo saw a bloke selling a 2871r with external gate on gumtree if you were still interested. It is local as well.

    Yeah... He wants quite a bit more than I'm really willing to spend at the moment...

    I really only bought this one because it seemed like a once only deal. To be honest I would probably prefer something a tiny bit smaller like a disco potato (GT28RS). I am only shooting for about 300rwhp and value response over power.

    At the moment I am thinking I will run the car on low boost most of the time and would be stoked with a reliable, lag-free 250rwhp.
