    random pics of my GTR project

    well i was out in the garage today so i took a few shots for you guys.


    the car. it handles awesome with the tires on the roof, i can do flips!



    the GTR block. i havent cleaned it at all... it really is that clean :D. the freeze plugs are still shiney and the block is still painted black! also came with HKS spark plugs that go for $20 EACH. not sure if i want to re-use them or not.


    the wall of turbo-goodness. dont worry, the nails they are hanging from are really sturdy .


    my shelf full of parts :D. and thats not the half of it!


    original motor, and the transmission. and cat litter for oil spills.


    my sweet wall of signs, my spindles and axles, and my toolbox.

      it is if the outside temperature is nice... no heat other than a wood stove in the next bay over, and the windows have horrible drafts. i think i need to tape some clear plastic over them, and set up a kerosene heater or something.
