Bang and the engines gone

Ok i think ive just about had enough now, engine went pop weekend before last, my fault entirely, i missed a gear out on track 4th to 3rd at 130ish mph, smoke everywhere, i think its melted the rings amongst other things (i ve not pulled it apart yet), bottom end seems ok though, no knocking, but lots of piston slap.....Do i re build again or turn gay and stick an sr or ls1 in it?

Not many music posts on OP, but this needs to be downloaded by everyone. Don't sleep on this. If you don't already have it, DL it from the link below.

ClubFR Drift Day

Check out JDM Chicago's sick ClubFR Drift day coverage. Great photos and some seriously hard cars. Nice to see some of the Chicago guys still rocking their O.P stickers.

Its been a while

Well after a long period of me hating this car, I have once again fallen in love with it. I decided to put some time a side and clean it properly.

Just need to sort out the WWII aircraft noise coming from the viscous fan!

What is Okishima Program?

This gets asked quite a lot. Heres a scan from Banzai (Sept 09, Issue 95) which explains OP better than I can. I scanned Ali's cover whilst I was at it (Oct 09, Issue 96).

Joe's 180sx and Ali's 200sx

Joe's stance is looking spot on. Also a pic of Ali's car, and Joe's car in the air at Ali's workshop (Unit18).

Kouki Carpark shots

Took the 14 for a late night spin and grabbed the D40. The pics aren't spectacular by any means, but they'll do for now.

Ali's car in this months Banzai Magazine

Be sure to go out and buy this month's Banzai. They definitely did Ali's car justice and gave OP a decent mention (again!)

Home coming

I brought the car home today for the first time in 2 years, man it feels good, also notice new bumper brace and cooling panel in front of the rad, (oh and check out banzai magazine, joe did an awesome feature on the car)

UK front, 270R rear

Finished the bodywork. Now need to sort the tyres and ride height (when my bank balance recovers).
