THANKS HEAPS to Jason, Gilly and Doug for their help over the long weekend. Jason with helping pull out the motor, Gilly with stripping down the engine bay and then rubbing it back, and Doug for fixing his possessed spray gun and spraying it. I think I might give working on the car a break today. My room's a mess. Sundeep |

So what there just pics of the engine taken out? As far as I know the whole car was done ages ago, would have thought that the engine bay was done at the same time. :

Didn't really have much of a reason to pull the motor out before, but now because all of the turbo stuff is going in I thought I'd make the engine bay look pretty.
I'm kickin' myself now, this is going to take so long to put back together. I spent about 3 hours cleaning and re-taping the wiring looms before :S Sundeep |
