I've not been over to the car since the 14th december.. I am hoping there maybe some progress happening in my absense though a section of the project I can't do myself
I don't do waiting or paitence well.. I am fighting man flu so unable to do much but sit and wait.

few parts bought and engine decision made
intercooler
engine
using this engine will delay the car being complete but seem silly to fit 2.3 and then pull it apart at some point in the future to fit the new engine.

Does the EJ33 weigh much more than the EJ20/25 ? Always wondered how something like this may affect the front end weight/balance.

eg33 is 1.5 times heaver than the ej20 pretty much.. it will have an effect yes.. hence I'll be trying to reduce the weight of the car as much as possible.
