hehe I wish... never drifted in my life
just with a 1400 datsun on a gravel road. but that doesn't count...
anyhow... I fitted the new waterpump last nite. like 10min job hehe. tightened up the bolts, fitted the belts, etc.
Filled it up with water... let it run for a while. filled up again and then took it for a drive. YEAH its alive again!! but alas... the car dips between 4-5k rpm... just when it gets into boost... so talked to gary to confirm my suspitions, think it might be the fuelpump. will test the fuel pressure over the weekend on the old pump and then next week with the new one.
otherwise I still need to fit the battery in the boot. get a new battery before I fit it. hehe
mmm... what else... oh need to move the IC up by about 4-5CM so the piping clears the bumper. also need to check on the speed sensor... seems I'm driving slower than I am... or so says the GPS...
anyhow. enough boring updatings...
here is a few pics...
