So where to start hmmmm
Pulled the motor out on friday was easy with the box already out.
Found a lose waste gate. That was a shit 1 to tighten up.. Bent a 10 spanner passed any recognition.
The fly I should be getting later 2day..
Rear oil seal is swapped. Cleaned out the sump so its nice and clean.
Saw I got a burnt harness going to the headlight fuse box. At least it was only the old ecu wires that were burnt so all is good and the rest is hidden from the heat of the turbo and mani...

so clutch. got one made up by Hannas at the track

i replaced the gearbox oil seals to have one fail on me not sure why it did but had to pull it out again [smilie=200sx_2guns.gif]

got all running and found my radiator cap leaking. think that must have been the easiest thing to fix :facepalm:

cleaned up all the wiring in the car Image

then coming home from the track i found i have some smoke comming from the engine bay..
dam turbo oil seals went on it. Was leaking out the housing and dripping onto the manifold. when i got home it stopped but i decided to take it all apart anyway..

Image Image

and i got a nice hole in intercooler. will see if i can weld it up... even for a temp till some founds come in

Image

just my luck hey :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

So haven't done much to her in a long time.. Just been sorting out other shit.. Basically the intercooler is welded up.
The cars was stripped out all sound deadening was removed. Its been painted white on the inside just to clean her up abit till I sort out the cage.. Um turbo is on and that's about all of it..
