Well great great news today, block will be back from the machine shop on Thursday & engine should be in for Monday, dyno work to do & if all goes to plan end of next week ready for shipping 
Over the moon - here's final pics from the bodyshop, there will be stainless steel guards going over the holes cut out each side for the exhausts & i think she will look wonderful
Really chuffed with how the car looks & fingers crossed end of June she will be in the UK
A shed load of devlopment work to do over the next couple of years & i need to sort my life out to drive the thing properly !!

lol - not going to kill the class mate - one more year for the skyline whilst we try & get our head around this - mainstream events only in 2010.
Engine is useful puny jap crap but putting out some mighty decent bhp
As for the driver, god help us - well have already bought 12 pairs of spare pants !!

It'll fit right in to the FIA stuff, I'm sure puny jap crap is code for a lot of power..lolEngine is useful puny jap crap but putting out some mighty decent bhp

- well have already bought 12 pairs of spare pants !! I'm sure that initially it'll get your attention.
It really is killer looking John.
nearly Andy - i think the only question markis on multivalve fuel injection & whether the rules will change over the next 2 or 3 years to allow it in (if it was anywhere near competitive enough that is).
Everything else is ok ie/ cage & spec etc, turbo's are allowed in P Mod now etc.
it's original sister car ran a few 6.6's @ 215+ in 2005 so plenty of potential there but a huge learning curve for us.

I know turbos are allowed...lolEverything else is ok ie/ cage & spec etc, turbo's are allowed in P Mod now etc.

NHRA rules don't allow multivalves yet,but electronic fuel injection is allowed.

It's top quality stuff there and no mistake.You have a perfect car to go fast.I'd go for the lencodrive as it'll be easier to spool that massive turbo.
Seriously with twin holes in the bonnet it needs to be a V8.I have the perfect engine..LMAO
I have 1 thing you've got anyway..lol
I'll get Slinky to give you a crash course on the AMS.
Edit,damn you have a V6..DOH!
