Finally! Now you have to set up the car to a respectable height or it will handle just as bad as cut springs. Looks nice though buddy.

It was bound to happen... If you rebuild I wouldn't recommend just slapping bearings back in. It works for a while but it will always come back.

You can order all that stuff but its not going to solve the problem. You need to have the crank, rods and the block checked to see if they are out of round. If that shit is out of round you need to have machine work done. If you just slap some bearings back in there you will do nothing but waste money. It will happen again.

If you don't want to do any machine work then just find a good s13 short block and put that in there. It will be easier and cheaper.

So now that I've had plenty of time on my hands. I've decided its time to finally update this again! Ive been busy workin on the car. Hasn't been driven much either since I've had my daily hatch. Well Lets see where to start! Ever since I've been lowered on coils I've had a problem with rubbing through my harness. Ive gone through tucking it an finally got it completely fixed the other night with andrew. Heres some pics of the first harness tuck. Ill post some of when me an andrew finished it the other night when i get some wifi lol.







Next! I got ahold of some more power parts :/ I thought id be happy with s14 turbo nope I want more fml. I got ahold of a real greddy intake manifold, along with a set of tomei 740cc Injectors biggrin.gif pic of it next to my new valve cover an 2871r


After collecting those I Decided I wanted to do another drift event an decided to do super am just cause the price an see how I stacked up I ended up after a long day placing 2nd place once again. Even with a killer last run an wall tap still got 2nd sad.gif Oh well though its all in fun! heres 2 vids from the event an then some pics!
Tandem Vid With Me An Trevor

Final Run Vid http://www.youtube.c...feature=related









Then after that event past I ended up Blowing my Turbo gasket like a week or two later. I ended up letting the car sit for awhile until I decided to get some new copper locking nuts an a new gasket. I ended up at the same time breaking all the studs off in the manifold so I put the megan manifold on.





Got the car back on the road an took out in the rain biggrin.gif



Finally The other day I finally picked up a set of a decent looking wheels biggrin.gif Hopefully there will be more to come soon with my new found spare time hahahaaha.

Its deffinatly been a quick minute since I updated this. I finished buiding my SR in december! I drove it for 7 months put about 7k miles on it where I sadly then sucked in a throttle body screw do to a different failure. So my built motor now has knock. Im now going the same route as rob an doing the LS2 swap. Hoping to have the car done by top drift next year. I wanna get done in december to atleast get some track time with the new motor. Recently though as far as driving goes I finally attended a full track event. Sadly not in my car though. It was a great expierance getting to feel how a car reacts sliding at speed. Heres the video I got from the event. 4min 50sec is where I finally got my 95mph entry. I was sad I didnt touch 100mph.
