I think anyone who is drifting with josh should install a self destruct button on their car so if something happens and a situation cant be avoided.. u hit the self destruct to avoid josh's car being scratched
Pics look great, No doubht it will look even better in person.
But whats with everyone stealing my silver bonnet idea? first simon.. now josh.

have run into a few problems in the starting it up phase. fiurstly the modified 20v runners had a pinhole leak that spreayed fuel everywhere, then it took 36 hours of stuffing around to sort out the ca-18 igniter module for the ems computer, and now theres spark, there is an inlet leak in said manifold, that is in the process of being tig welded and replaced as we speak, all these problems aside, we should have it firing today, hopefully that is...

very nice work josh, definately a show piece now, you have done alot of work since the days of custard. I can appreciate how much work goes into making it look so good. I am really looking forward to seeing how much power you can squeeze from this little mill, this is the one adrian built for you? i spose you won't have it on a dyno till you get a comp? bummer dude, its always one thing after another, trust me i know. watching with anticipation, Aaron

seemless..... soo nice man. also just looking at your engine bay i noticed u made the same mistake i did. Put the ID plates on the other way around. lol it doesnt matter but its so easy to do. I cant believe how much room u got in your engine bay without the battery and overflow bottles. looks really good. Are you going to be racing this car?

YES people, as Mumblezzzz has so kindly said, ITS ALIVE!!! the new ems computer arrived at 5:00pm friday, we spent till 3:00amsaturday morning getting the setup correct( many many thanks to Anthony Kellam and co for spending 5 hours or so on friday night in my shed helping out!) and lo and behold, it started! straight away the last of the wiring and guages were completed, and with the help of a mate, we loaded it straight onto the trailer and headed out to sydney. got home onlyan hour ago. the trip down was great, the century proved to be an adequateley comfortable tow vehicle, but we did have a small drama with it. after stopping in to visit my father on saturday afternoon in northern sydney, he said he thought it was amazing the century had not given any trouble. So, on the way to our place to stay on saturday night, the alternator died! its a hard thing to replace on a sunday in sydney, so the century stayed with the hachi at RICOL, a big thanks to colin and the guys for their amazing efforts and gratitude in helping with this and the tune on the car. results will be posted as soon as they are known, and we shall soon see if the engine build was worth the headaches!
