then due to petrol prices i got sick of it! bought a cheaper car and left that aside!! around the same time "driftfest" started up so got a new brain wave to try out track days! so pulled out the hammer and screwdrivers and got rippin, cut out the boot and had it ready to go!

so it came the time after doing a few days at tynagh when wanted more power and do more tracks, so idc was my next big goal! knew the car wouldnt be finished for this year so set the goal for 2014! so two days after superdrift went and got a rb25det up the country for good money, got a turbo and two gear boxs of alan bermigham so i had the main bits sitting infront of me

sent the whole lot down to gareth burke in drd motorsport to do the conversion! i had been waiting a while to see any bit of progress but its fairly comin together at this point, the engine and gear box are mounted, prop shaft is made and the engine loom is done so car

Aboy drowney !!! Will she ever be done ! Haha!! Didnt no u wanted to do idc ! Good man !!
Haha Ya planning to do it since dropped it down!! Just left drd about a hour ago, heard the bitch turn over! I was like a child at Christmas! Alan will u buy the 14 off me so I can get my front mount and other bits haha
so this is how its stands today! the engine is turning over but still needs few minor bits for it to fire up! he is having a bit of bother with the stearing rack to the rb pump, last few bits needed is a front mount, rad, throttle cable and full exhaust system!
