    Cheers Tom and Roey, update time , addressed the interior firstly by swapping front seats to R33 series 2 ones and fitted a deep dish steering wheel , makes driving position much better but i'll keep on the lookout for s15/r34 seats for it


    next up was to figure out what immediate stuff needed doing, steering rack is shot and turbo is blowing to a point of no boost, so engines coming out for a tidy up (nothing internal- yet.....) and hicas is getting binned.
    Few bits to be done this week
    RB25 turbo and elbow
    ex mani studs replaced
    engine leaks sorted
    timing belt/service
    a/c removal
    replace steering rack wth R33 one
    R33 LCA's
    S13 rear subframe + solid bushes
    Shim diff

    Engine shot pre removal

    Thats the one indeed , have a picture of it outside the church in dunboyne the day of my wedding, couldn't help going for it it's a pretty good base so hopefully i can make a good road car out of it

    Thanks for all the comments lads , hopefully stuck into it this week

    Bit of an update, so rear subframe got binned for a s13 one and in went solid bushes, and a couple poly bushes replaced the hicas joints.



    Front rack was removed and replaced with r33 rack, p/s pump and crank pulley, also put in lca's out of r33 that were strenghtened and had a bit of bump stop work done



    Engine got a clean up mainly new exhaust studs, gaskets, turbo gaskets, RB25 turbo / compressor elbow / turbo elbow

    Inside got a dishy steering wheel and a Trust knobby

    All fluids were changed and new rubber fitted to a set of rattle canned s14
    wheels, running great now and every roundabout is an adventure

    Looking good, glad to see the subframe went to good use

    The only way forward is sideways
