16v it mate... by the time you pay for cam fitting and remap and the cam itself, you could get a decent vts engine in there. and have more power with more potential. you no i speak sense

Right then big update!
Now im employed thought its more power time... considered camming and remapping the 8v... but with 130k on the clock resale would be a bitch so i thought 16v!!!!
Got myself this little baby...
C2 VTS Engine from AlexR everything on it was pretty much new 44k ish on the clocks and gti cams in it. Tidy little motor.
So on sunday spent the whole day doing the conversion becuase we hit a little snag with it not starting due to either a crank position sensor or the ecu fucking up...
But the show must go on... so out with the old (which is now for sale  ) 
In with the new...
Spent a good hour or so cleaning all the underside of the bonnet and the engine bay not to stupid standards but like to a nice clean sort of standard looked like this
Dont have any photos of the car with the engine in becuase of the problem we have... so keep an eye out on this space ..

ha everyone says that, no it was a tight roundabout and a golf went big balls on it and over on my side and it was either him or go left a bit and i went left and just slide glently into the curb i was only do 30 aswell otherwise the lampost that i stopped no more than an inch away would of wrecked everything, the police came sharpish and saw me as the vitcem and went out looking for him.. so wasnt speeding lol. Lets face it a VTS is not power... a 580bhp skyline is power, i drive both... So, no i can handle the power...

its hard to grasp any emotion over a computer... i just annoys when people say you cant handle power when it was a accident, its like if someone chokes you wouldnt say - Ah cant handle breathing then lol. I was having a go at you tbh. I thought u ment somthing you didnt and was just defending myself , no hard feelings.
