It's beginning to look very convincing.
I've driven some cars with more parts missing than that

It is very close to start-able. Just missing some OEM turbo parts before I can add oil, and a bit of wiring to finish. |

The Nismo roller bearing should free up a HP or two mated with the light weight flywheel , compared to that old junked bushing and my old hi weight flywheel. I'm expecting this car to rev a lot freer and at higher RPMs than it did previously. Roller bearings also require more attention to maintenance, from what I hear... |

Just letting you know, cause its in an area that most people don't like to crack open too often. |

Of course I research the parts I install in my car. 
Many OEM cars use needle bearings from the factory. |

How difficult was it to hook in? It looks like you have lots of room to work with in there ~ even more than the L28 gives. |

10 out of 10 until I pulled off the manifold and bolted the turbo to the manifold out of the car. Then it was a 7 out of ten. I'll have to do a lot of touch up paint. |

Yea, it's called grease. I prefere the syl-glide for brakes. Hi-temp silcon base, water proof. Well, keep at it, maybe you can drive down soon to get some parts.  I's like to see it when done, that front end with the lights is interesting.

What, the grease? It's use for brakes, for the caliper slides, back of the pads. I also use it to pack the needle bearings for the pilot bearing. |
