6 months has passed since my last update and TBH i've not done a lot but I have made a start on the project Having kids takes up a lot more time and money than you think
The donor car has been completley stripped and scrapped, my own car was then moved into the garage
I bought an APS plenum
starting to strip down the front end ready for the engine to be removed
found some rust
not bad for a near 17 year old car thats lived outdoors all its life, needs sorting though
so the current plan is to strip down the forged engine and check the damage, if its the head gasket then ill replace the gasket, get the heads skimmed and use it in this build, if not then ill just use my engine.
after that i am planning a full on restoration of my Z so its unlikely to see the light of day anytime soon but it keeps me out of trouble and my wife says im never allowed to sell the car
