    Good stuff!

    BM engines are head gasket spl's anyways.

    I forgot nick was sellifying all his BM stuff, and crossing to the dark side that is Toyota (and the even darker side that is V8 power) or I'd have said.
    At work I can send pallets of stuff now, so if you wanted anything (or everything) off nick I can send it.

    Hope to see you at a drift day soon!

    how long before you plan to skid it ? Free DWYB slot if you turn up with no mods except a 3way and a seat (if you can afford it) :D

    ah ha, could be an option Cas-meladdy. I couldn't work out how I was gonna get anywhere to pick a new engine up from lol, seeing as the laguna is destined for the scrappy and the other two hatchbacks we have are too small... dont think the stuff'll fit in the GTR somehow.

    I've got the drivers seat out now, that came out easy... but I can't seem to get at the two rear bolts on the passenger side seat rail even when the seat is right the way forwards. Any clues?

    I've got the centre console out, the trims around the doors, the door cards, the bit around the handbrake, the trims in the footwells, the spare wheel is stacked up with the rest of my random wheels and tyres. I'll be getting the rest of the guff out of the car this evening and tomorrow.

    I spotted that someones semi-rolled one of the rear arches too lol, god knows what for lol! I'll do a proper job of that over the weekend seeing as I've got an arch roller at my disposal.

    I plan on getting some cheap buckets early next week and a set of harnesses. Hopefully I can get the diff out and get that welded up soon as..then its just a case of seeing if its worth salvaging the 1800 for a while or whether I might as well drop a bigger lump in there straight off the bat.

    I'll go take some more pics later on... just having some biscuits right now lol...mmmm

    Fair enough, I'm not sure if you'll find them though, even poverty spec e30's came with electric fronts... might be possible to bodge rear winders to the fronts?
