Yair i will, gota few things orgainised. Going to try a proper shakotan style on this. Will also add a bit of works to that with the 3sge. And an oilcooler and some horns out the front. God, john will be proud hehehe.

All thats left is to decide weather or not to run the wing on the boot.

Spent a backbreaking weekend getting the gte ready for its new owner. Has been a mammoth 28hrs so theres been no time for my new nugget. But seeing as im here now i may as well show you what im planning. Ive gotta say after the last build ive learnt a stupid amount both on my driving style and car setup. I will never own a responsive turbo car again, probably not a corolla either. Turbos are just a stupid idea unless your running anti lag. I see no way to mountaineer a car like the gte ever. Not unlees you fancy 17s with 235's.

Anyway, ive worked it out for the rina, im pretty confidant i can keep her chassis straight so all there is left is building it to suit my style. I love my top end, so the plan is now

Rebuild gen1 3sge to stock specs, probably a lil bit looser, burning a bit of oil never hurt anyone.
Pair of cams round 280*
Adaptronic
4 into 1 extractors
ST20V quads

Will see how that goes

And probably for the drive line swap extention housings on the w57 for shorter ratios. It already has a 4.1 final drive so ill just source a truetrac center. Suspension wise its to be advised, ive got a good start on it tho. Hopefully itll be done in 3 months.

Trying to get some motivation for tomorow. Might grab a few tallies and stare at it again.

Not much happening in the land of big. Got a few panels painted, decided on running the wing, bought some seats and thats about it.

might have a go at preping the shell again.

Shes not much at the moment, mostly in bits.

Where and how much was your f series lsd beal? Might buy a proper one if the budget fits it in.

Had a decent gander in the cam cover today, I dont know where people get the idea that 3sge gen1's spit the shim over bucket out. If anything id say it would just split and crack first. And being a gen1 it has 2 cam covers as opposed to gen2 on which have a single one. Far out the baffles in there are way to excessive. they would each hold near on half a litre in them cos they have a stupid chooken mesh screen at one end. Im going to bin the lot and be done with it. oil drain at the back of the cam is pretty massive imo.
