slippery s14a

[veedubmk4]

I did'nt want to put up a build thread straight away because i hate seeing build threads that just die after awhile but im hopingto keep this one up to date, I'm planning on getting it ready for a driftfest event sometime next year so i'll have time to save up for the bits i'll need and get it ready,all advice/opinions are welcome as it's my first track car. These are the pics from the dd ad and some i took of the underneath.

Quick update,When i bought the car the seller said it had a 'missfire' on the engine,so yesterday we did a compression test on the engine and there was low compression on cylinder 4 and and barely any on cylinder 2, so we took off the head and found this


two of the rocker arms were after coming off the coil packs as well a few of the shims missing,so it looks like a new engine is on the cards

Ready for a new heart,cheers to seamie at premierperformancecars for this,sound man to deal with



Thought i'd get rid of some of the bits of surface rust while the engine was out,so i got out the green goo and some anti rust primer
