2. Ted B. gauge overlays. Now my tach will read past 8k with the s54, rather then into the oil temperature gauge! :D

Any more info or a link on these? (new to me)

Stunning project btw..

update?

Ya, I'm going to murder the machinist with my s14!

The second block I brought him to re-hone, and do a mild rebuild on simply sat for over 3 months!!! :hitler:

If he doesn't finish this week I'm taking it to another guy. I'm really pissed about all this. I've owned the car for almost a year now and I've never driven it. :(

update?

I don't know how I missed this. Your red car was tits, this is just over the top though. Techno Violet, m3, s54 it has it all.

Thanks. Scarlet was a fun car, and had I kept her, she would've gone over a complete tranformation with an LS1, flares, 17x9.5s, big brakes, etc. However, I couldn't pass up the chance to get my dream car, so I bought the M3 and got rid of Scarlet. :D

Can't wait! I am anxioulsy awaiting the real start of this build.

Tell me about it. It's been 7 months since I bought the car and it's just sat collecting dust. I need to get this baby on the road and drive it for a while before I pull the s14 out. It's gonna be down for around 6 months for the s54 and paint, so I will miss driving it... :(

But it will be so sick when it's done, that it's worth the wait!

Trading my CP pistons for a stock 2.3 bare block, and buying a set of used stock pistons. Car should be running on the s14 by Dockweiler! :pimp:
