Unhappy Turbo project comes to an end

Unfortunately I can no longer continue on my Turbo project due financial constraints and other commitments in my life at the moment. The bits are being sold off in the for sale section if anyone is interested.

I am really shattered that I can't continue with it, but at some time later down the track I'll have another crack at it. At this stage I will continue modding the EF in N/A form, T5 conversion, 1004-110 or 1521a cam and a set of 4490 pacies, will probably be as far as it goes for now.

Talk about disappointed!

Daniel

At least you get a crap load of money from selling the parts off, I've got heaps of it after selling all my E-series stuff!

That sucks mate.

Where are you selling the stuff, it's not in the for sale section from what I can see.

Eh Rob, where'd you end up selling all your crap lol? I didn't see much of it go in the FS section, did you ebay it all?

Sorry to hear it Dan, what I do in these situations is to leave the car in a garage for years until I recover.

If you end up separating the stuff I'd be curious about the manifold.

Keep us posted with the N/A mods.

Thanks guys. Jack I would leave the car in garage, except it's a bit hard when it's a daily driver.

I will consider separating parts, if anyone is interested, make an offer.
