The Decision...

So along came Day 2 of our build. Shev came by nice and early. Stepped into the garage and admired the car for a while. Then I sat in the passenger seat while shev pretended to drive our Engine-less car and made pretend drifting noises with his mouth.

Then we finally started sorting out the bits of the engine into different boxes. Discoverring the previous owner had somehow managed to blow his Arias forged pistons to shit. After about an hour of staring at the guts of an engine we came to the conclusion...

....We had No Idea whaT the f*ck we were doing!

So rebuilding the engine was out of the question. besides the Block had been bored out 0.5mm So we'd have to fork out over 1 grand for a new set of forgies. So this led to The biggest decision so far.

Some of you may remember one of our Street Supremacy members' rides tipped off the side of a "steep embankment" (Some may call it a cliff) a few months ago. Resulting with cancellation of all SS hills runs until we can all shake the chills still running through our bones from that night.

On a brighter note though. The mangled 200sx has kindly allowed us to use its engine to transplant into our Drift Project. So with a quick call to Mr Rupasenhe at Lanka Towing it was organised to have the car towed to my place following the weekend.

Shev spent the remainder of the day ripping the Front end panels off the 180 (So we don't scratch the paint...really...) while I tried to clean up some of the previous owners ghetto wiring under the dash. We had "nitrous" switch hotwired into the turbo timer earthed off the headunit! We also discovered there was never any nitrous inthe car as we once thought and 3/4 of an Eccy pill. Wooo. I kept working while shev went in search of a rave party.
