so had the old girl up to give her underside a rub off and a bit of TLC. Sprayed her with some epoxy rust proofing then some paint. Got a bit of the dreaded rot on the back of the sills/onto the rocker panel so its going to go for a full chassis restoration and at that time have some suspension mods done. Other than that I'm doing some custom work on the exhaust. Swapping it over to v bands and things. Threw new bushing on the hangers on also. Going to be adding a s13 non hi as sub frame along with the gktech weld in reinforcement brackets and all solid mounts and all freshly powder coated

Popped up to see how Ron was getting on with the old girl. Just the fuel system to wire up and the brackets to swap over and then fit the new intercooler pipework when it comes in. He added one of his catch tanks and power steering tanks too. And also rebuilt the pump and took the back half off so the hicas has totally gone!

Cant believe this thread is still going and being built. I remember reading this when I first joined this forum 7 plus years ago.

Amazing car, I'd be bored of any car after this much time haha
 
Haha neither can I! Had the thing for 13 years now! Going to hopefully doing alot of resto work this year to get things like new as well. Well that's the plan anyways haha
 
Thanks dude. I'm flat out at work right now so as soon as I can I'll be putting new Injectors in and then taking if for mapping then crack on with the chassis resto work!
 
so got the plugs changed out along with the injectors! Although I ran out of sunlight so had to work in the dark with lamps was definitely masively over fueling! also found that one of the springs in a coil pack was missing! So got to replace that now! Hopefully It will be running again very soon
