The 32 seem to be running well now you've sorted the head. Went to North Weald the other weekend. Didn't set it on full boost but ran a 12.8@ 111mph. Did leak some coolant when we arrived though but level is above max line on header tank. Should I drain some out
Hi Tom
no news with engine yet
still making pipework up to connect my large intercooler pipes to dyno intercooler as they do mainly YB engines.

No need to drain some out Tom it wil find it,s own level

Cheers mate. Dash looks awesome, almost make's the interior look comfy, I'm sure it'll be anything but when it's hurling round a track. Are you going to do any Time Attack sessions in it, would be interesting to see how it compared to a certain Subaru.

I think its far from a cheaque book build, but more a true skyline enthusiast build, dont think you would understand having a loyal love of one car Chris.

Wish I had a wife like that, she can find a bill written in Arabic under 2 layers of wallpaper, and have my pockets emptied and counted without me even taking them off

I hope I didn't come across as critical of the build or its financing, that most certainly wasn't the intention. It shows a lot of thought and even more hard graft, but the cost is also obvious from the information shared I can't grasp loving a car at all, it's a lump of metal at the end of the day. I get great pleasure from working on my cars, and even more from driving them, but at the end of the day it's a car, and not a person or a pet
