Today I made a big order at all speed engineering. 7 weeks to wait though,
Complete b18 subframe hd bottom arms and tie bars hd drive shafts heavy duty cv joints.i also bought mintec pads and groved and dimpled disks for my 8.4s as I'm keeping these. With that in mind and 7 weeks to fill I stripped the calipers and back plates off the mini subframe then set to sandblasting them ready for paint. Also going to buy adjustable hilo's.

At a guess, I'd say that looks very subframe shaped.

Last night I started to strip down the engine to paint. I need to buy a s9b gearbox as mine has a small hole in it.

Ok so tonight I removed more engine components and clutch ready for a new one to be fitted. Also need to change timing belt and water pump as there quite a bit if slack in the belt and one thing that should be done whilst it's out of the car. Also preped and painted the engine and rocker one bits get painted I'll be bolting them back on to build the engine back up.
