I’m finally getting around to rebuilding and I thought I’d share. Enjoy!

 

The engine on the stand has forged pistons and rods, Eagle rods and uhhhhh... those pistons... I forget the brand now. All balanced to the flywheel up on my shelf, a 1.8. Everything overbore 0.020” dada da dada....

 

Came here for ****, all I got was a TD04

 

Lol.

 

I do like the re-use of the reptile dripper for injectors.



In all seriousness, good on you for rebuilding.

But jesus, that ******* blue paint....

 

Yah.

Budget, dusty garage OEM rebuild and hey, 1983 called, they want their turbo back.

 

Came for the ****, sat on the couch, got herp.

 

1.6L. S-so small.

 

From my understanding of american culture.... all the blue means that it's a boy motor, yes?

 

...I equate this thread to death bed GILF ****. (not that I've seen any!)

 

I like my engine **** all open and busted out... gaping.

 

Some actual engine ****. RIP

 

^That does look nice...but that hose routing! woof

 

Yeah, what he said.

 

SO this is why people break into storage units. I had no idea people would have built engines in there. But more seriously asking; do you do mechanic work out of a storage unit? Is it air conditioned?

 

Imagine living in a 3rd world country and NOT working on your car in an air conditioned storage unit.

 

3rd world problems right!

 

I knew someone that ran a subaru headgasket repair shop in a storage unit. They had one of the portable ACs installed.

 

I mean, some guys live in apartments...where else can they a) do the work and b) store the tools they use for it? Not many apts let you do **** in the parking lot.
