The sad state of affairs:

I'll post a photo of the car itself later - the dust layer is pretty awesome. I'm expecting major work on this very soon!

Did your engine grow another couple of cylinders or are my eyes crap?

I welded a couple of extra cylinders on :) It's easy to do!.. actually 2JZ-GTE for those who don't know.

Old Fart - I assume you're talking to me?

- Plugs are in the top of the motor so no dramas there.

- External gate - currently 32mm, but will probably put a bigger one on

- Manifold is chinese cheapo - it's surprisingly good though - it's been modified though to reposition the wastegate.

If all goes well, this thing may be running by early 2008.. i've been saying this for a while, but i'm very determined right now. Just got to sell my Falcon first.. anyone want a low km XR6T? :)

Should be able to get to plugs still. External gate will be going on there. Manifolds not finished as waiting to fit motor to car before deciding on wastegate position.
