My GTR swap thread

[Marc93lx]

Well, Im in Branson right now for a family reunion untill the 21st. Then Im off to Colorado until the 31st. Absolutely nothing was done/bought for the swap in the last month due to no money from me taking a trip to Chicago, then my birthday, and now Branson/Colorado. LOL...soooo hopefully I get back on track next month. Im already behind my previous goal of July....and I still have to pay for the remainder on the JDM bumpers...and I want to paint the car before I drop the engine in...and I really, really want to buy a set of the Weisco forged turbo pistons which cost ~$600 and will require an overbore...soooo yeah it might still be awhile. Im about to start a new job soon so we will see how that goes. So basically it gets done when I have the finances to finish off my shopping list, which isn't too big aside from my wanting the Weiscos.

Alright Marc. You have to have done something in the past month..... At least hit it with a can of degreaser or something.... lol.

[Marc93lx]

mmmm, nope....nothing. I start my new job at the casino on Monday. So after that, it's on like Donkey Kong. I've had absolutely zero time or money to do anything in the past couple of months. It's been crazy and I miss my car like mad.

[D323]

Well congrats on the new job. Hopefully it works out well for you. Not this weekend, but next weekend I *might* have the MX on the road.... the 323 is become less and less reliable.

The new radiator is thicker right? It looks like it'll be a tight fit once the turbo is in there.
