Kaboom! A sufficient answer?

Took two teeth off the right hand spider gear & fractured the right hand main barring cap. And sprayed oil all up the back of my car & leaked oil on my driveway. -_-

I have full coverage of the ripdown & damage, i'll be posting it all up within a week or so (just moved house & i gotta find my camara) :?

No stress, I whacked another in & she's good as gold. 8)

Seeing as its my Birthday I thought I'd drop this lil bombshell... Not exactly following a turbo path anymore. :twisted:
I found & secured this little beauty while I was down @ ALLMAZ http://www.allmaz.com.au/

Scored the running gear out of the Na6 as that the body was mostly buggered anyways. My goal is not stupid horsepower as I think its realistic that I don't go stupid on power in my daily for obvious reasons. Should be good enough for a good squirt. 8) :NA6: =====
