then the motor spun a bearing, so i bought another swap with some goodies from here on tr, "ready to drop in"
started the pull the motor and whatnot
got it all out and shit, started to look over the other motor and noticed the oil feed line for the turbo was stripped, broken bolt in oil pan, hole in intake manifold, a bunch of other shit, p/s pulley was on backwards, and more
started to fix all that shit drilled out the oil feed, tapped, helicoiled it and got rid of the banjo bolt bs
got some more new parts and shit
my stepdad totaled his malibu, and my other fan took a shit so i took his off, they actually work really good
check out that lower harness lol
cleaned that shit up
got the motor in
made a stop sign heatshield LOL
then i had it towed to S&R to have it finished up, needed a hotpipe random vac tubes and shit, they got it all done and started it and it had rodknock. got completly fucked over on buying that motor.
pulled the motor again, had the bottom end rebuilt.
started to break it in, had just got to 1500 miles and about to tune it, then...
headgasket started to go
so i pulled the bitch apart again
ordered a apexi headgasket, ARP studs, new water pump, new nismo tstat,new coolant temp sensor
had the head resurfaced and hot tanked
started to put it back together
it pretty much back apart now, just gotta get some new spark plugs and put all the fluids and shit back in and see how it goes.

Haha, I spy Mine and Mei-wah's hands in a few of those pics, and me holding your bumper up
If you ever look inside at the porting on the fake greddy intake manifolds you might throw up and wonder why you bought it in the first place. bad batches pend maybe?
Stock Intake manifold works great, I had a GReddy and sold it for way cheap.
Hosey- I have your DCC son pick it up
