Depends how things go with my visa and how things go work wise once im back out in oz tbh (if i get the visa). Either full rebuild with over 200+ bhp NA, or lob a new sandy head with 734 cams in onto my bottom end and aim for 190/195bhp NA

Lol, I'm not joking, I've just come inside 11:30pm, from finishing working on the car!
Perfect Tom, gives me a perfect excuse to take my time at spraying the interior and cutting the dash etc and any other bits and bobs I can do before fitting the carpet drop me a message on weds to remind me

well more the touch dry time, so even with it been 20c.. and tbh minimum u shud spray in is 23c and then bake it at 65c... its pretty chill as far as painting go's lol. get some pics up once its done though.... one other thing might help you, if u have an old car rad fan stick it on a battery charger and place it near the car and shud suck all the misty shit away stop u choking.
