Damn that time ...

Id say where does the time go, but I know the answer to that.


Last year I went to Europe for a few months, to see some Drift Allstars and enjoy the sight. Plus i was really burnt out and needed that time away to get some motivation and enjoyment back into it.

I have all of these pics and vids yet to upload, and of course ill add something here. So for the lacking content, im sorry, but i do promise its going to be a lot busier now.

Ok, related content - After deciding with Glenn (AKA Lumpy) we need to abandon the Chev bell housing to the TB48, and go with a Nissan unit, then adapt the Tremec at the main case was great to hear, because I was thinking it and had hoped to hear a similar thought.

The biggest sole issue I have with using the Chev bell housing, is that the starter motor is going to be a logistical nightmare to mount, as the starter location is on a web of the block for the bolt pattern. No go.

So it came to finding a aluminum Nissan Patrol bellhousing to suit. After 4 days and many many calls across many wreckers here and over east, I managed to find one - yes. So now onto mounting the gearbox to the engine, so I can then mount the engine in the chassis and laser-line it all up for engine mounts.

More soon !
