Will be fun to see it run, the expense and hassle of silly power is keeping them in engines, diffs, gearboxes, expensive clutches IMHO not the initial build. With the best builds things still break, regularly, at inconvenient times, and when you think you've ironed out all the rubbish, they still break.

I hope the mileage will be low and the budget high!

Hey there moses, im not bad at all mate thanks. As for the warmup situation, well i dont think it could of helped that much (blasting it straight from cold) Anyway, I thought the yanks boys used Jun for their little drag sessions out there, also the big horsepower skylines???

Ahhh!! ive heard of crower, they are really strong. When i start to seriously mod those are what im after.

Cant believe how long your car is taking bro. Bet your an eager beaver now I bet simons really chuffted with you lol

i agree with u john totally i wish i had left it at 600 bhp at the time or even 350 at one time, its not fun anymore, just throwing money at it, i forgot how it goes, i miss it badly and yes doesnt matter how much we uprate everything on it, still gonna break, the car isnt made for over 500 bhp


and scrappy bros, yeah been ages mate, only coz i changed the spec so many times


and angrybeats u dont even know the problem and u are spewing all this garbage, how do we know the real story of what happened

Bit like the majority of your posts then mate

I'm only going on what what printed on an Ebay advert, if I'd paid 1k for a engine I'd like it last more than a month. The problem was probably caused by a lack of oil so to me either it wasnt filled correctly or the engine was that worn it burt away what was there, unless you know different of cause.

this car would absolute EAT Simon Norris's car, or Any car for that matter that was entered in TOTB this year, Rear Wheel drive and only 600 BHP on the wheels, check the video out , it speaks for itself, shows that 80's technology still is awesome.

quarter mile in 9.63 seconds, at 147mph

go to www.fj20.com and see the Ben's Nissan Silvia S12 Gazelle FJ20

Unbelievable car, simply awesome, that car is one of a kind,
