looks good, holding thumbs - no major damage.....

I hope not!

Anyway, also saw that the manifold (stock) has a small crack, nothing major, but now just to be safe I will be looking for a aftermarket manifold.

Also looking for a turbo exit piece and a downpipe (76mm) - So if anybody knows somebody with these pieces they wanna sell, let me know. Cheers.

Well, 2 valves on the head is bent, and this because of a human error when assembling!

I wish I had all the knowledge and time and do this shit myself! Anyway, will be a few weeks before the car is up and running again. Will keep you all posted.

On the bright side! I might be getting a sponsor early next year! The car will then be used for drifting and main circuit!

So if the sponsorship comes threw the whole car will be stripped to the last bolt! So another project might be up and coming! 😈

Blast from the past here....

After my run in I had with a certain E46 M3 and a lamp post, the SX will be getting fixed over the weekend, hopefully done in 2-3 weeks time!

I will be bying a new daily drive soon, so the SX will become a track/road legal car....So bring on the good times! 😈

mmario_200sx30 Jul 2009, 02:13

So the car is back from G&C....feels strong and runs very nice. Pulls all the way to the rev limit.

Did some work on the engine bay and sprayed the tappet cover:

And ofcourse a thanks to my girlfriend for supporting me with this expensive project and never getting upset about the money I spend! A pic for the blokes of her:
