[trickysimon]

how much did it set you back if you done mind me asking ?

Got it second hand from the USA for $1150 USD to my door.
Should be getting shipped tomorrow!

Intake and fuel rail arrived yesterday! That was quick!!

Crankshaft* knobhead

woops - looks like I'm sending you the wrong part over

Just checking you're awake and alert knobhead!

[trickysimon]

Crankshaft arrived yesterday at Seb's. Special thanks to Robert and James, massive help packing and shipping it here for me!
Crankshaft will be crack tested before fitting.
Block machining is nearly complete. Will be finished off when JE pistons and Intergrated Engineering rods get here. They should be getting ordered soon.
Will also be ordering clutch and flywheel soon so that the engine can be balanced.

Getting excited!

I'm excited!

I'm Jealous! Will be good to see a boosted Bora 4motion with an R32 motor

I've always thought that if my motor did go pop I'd pop an R32 motor in but *touch wood* the need hasn't arisen!

400hp should be easily achievable Looking forward to seeing how this progresses!

Thanks mate! If mine turns out half as good as yours, I'll be happy!
