Pics:
Have learnt a lot about working on cars since owning and working on the ET. Feel confindent to tackle future projects. Unfortunately this is my third engine. Am hoping to keep this one haha. Always learning from my mistakes. First engine, i blew the headgasket after suffering a combination of an engine oil flush (dislodged shit in the engine that was probably helping seal areas) and a massive overheat. Second engine, downgeared into second gear to floor it, and blew the comp ring in cylinder 4. Believed it was due a massive lean out and detonation as a result. Too much boost, not enough fuel. Continued to run on 3 cylinders until i took that out and dropped in my current motor. Not keen on boosting it as i suspect my boost guage may be inaccurate!

oO believe me...there are plenty of faults with this cAR!mad_cow521 wrote:i love it. very nice. cant fault it, it looks neat as! love it mate, very nice
Bodywork/Exterior:
I mostly have an issue with some body panels not lining up. So i gotta get them regapped. Under the car where the lifting points are (to raise with a jack), is simply bent, and will bend further if the car is lifted from there since the material has become so old and weak. Rust in bootlid which needs replacing with a new bootlid from my spare car.
Under the hood/Engine/Gearbox:
Replaced the engine with a sweet one. Now i gotta write up a statutory decleration saying where i bought it from. Needs a new clutch and washer
motor. Would like to replace all hoses with new.
Interior:
Roof lining sagging a little...and still beige! Need the alarm system looked at since its playing up.
Screw it i should be happy it runs hahaha
Nice ride man, Definately needs some side skirts!!!! Would look sick with the jetspeed bar
