now riley, i dont say the following with the intent of deliberatly taking a personal shot, just wanted to let you know... now... daves complete mteu is cheap as shit daves complete 5mteu is brand new and cheap as shit any 5me (base engine to start a rebuild from) from a wrecker (or off these forums) would be cheap as shit, if not free. it would take very little to get out from behind a computer, buy one of these things and actually make a start rather than spends weeks/months pissing around not getting anywhere. the elitist experts (sic) on here probably got put off by the complete absence of actual progress. common, what would you expect when talk goes away from turbo 5m's, and to plain 5mge's, then the intricacies of a boost gauge? hello, wtf are you doing asking about installing a boost gauge when there isnt even an engine in your garage? first things first ffs why stubbornly wait for someone else to make oil and coolant lines for you? if you were truly keen on getting things rolling, youd be at your local pirtek asking questions and learning about whats involved in designing and instaling lines yourself. youd drive over to daves, look at the engine, and talk to him in person. ask him what else could be needed, come back on the forums, ask more questions about specific parts etc etc. ^^^^^ THAT all indicates a keen eagerness to pursue a project, as opposed to an eager, but not really ready to do anything solid, project contemplation. now i dont doubt that riley had every 'intention' of wanting to do something great with one of these engines. but common, gotta demonstrate a 'bit' active involvement. hell, even when you were looking for 5mge's, some dude answered saying "i have one, its in the car, feel free to come see it run and go for a drive"... did you go riley? i doubt it. you just let him hang there... "oh yeah, keep me updated, im interested" shrugs i dont see how you could expect much else... tht said, if you ever re-explored this idea, and really got your teeth stuck into it, we'd all still be here, ready to lend a hand, and share every bit og info we could to help get you going cheers mate ed PS - as for not liking mods? as if we need to go to events, pull each other's dicks, then crash our cars to be 'a part of the scene'...
