I'm still kicking around, trying to keep stress and heart rate in check. Most of the car collection is gone and I really miss some of the good times we had during the Guyph days. I've been taking lots of holidays and the last one to Steep Point was just what the doctor ordered. I'd post up a picture...

At 207k, have you had any turbo or dpf work done recently? Is everything looking clean and in place around this area?

Oh and wow that paint work looks great

Pretty sure you'll need to change over the radiator support panel or relocate the radiator to allow the 3.6

I'd recommend looking for a ER27 nose cut to help out

There isn't any adjustments to the alignment of the P/S pump or Alternator, so my thoughts are that if the pump and alt pulleys are inline, then the crank harmonic balancer is out.

How does the engine mounts look? Have they had any oil on them or come out of them?

I feel that as my collection is getting smaller, yours is getting bigger

Bennie Ln.. nice one

There is a lot of good info on there. Is Brett keeping the original website going in any capacity?

Cheers,
Paul

Awesome

Option 5... only on old cars with standard tyre profile

Easter??? Did I miss that changed the date? Hahaha.. just kidding

So wished you could come back over to WA.. all the WA adventurers have disappeared

Hear hear Bennie

Sounds like too nice of a car to let go. Good to hear you've changed your mind.

Nice work and love the new optical disc. Did you make this yourself?

I'd definitely make your own set of headers up but I'd do some research on sizes and lengths to make sure you don't affect the required back pressures.

Definitely check with a local Japanese engine importer. They might have or be able to find you a low km engine which they should be able to sell you with a warranty
