My car is running again :D
WOOOtt woooot...my car is running again.
Just blew the ZC .... unfortunately it blew up while still NA.
after 3 weeks I put in a D15b2 with the A6 head and intake etc... I had laying around. My gf didn't give me any time to work on my car. Got it done in 1 and a half days, had to go to work in between. Started the first time and runs great....just need to put the bumper etc back on.
The engine was layin in my shed for 3 years lol...i'm getting another ZC soon, but I'll have fun with this one first...boost it later this week

I would have to say that half my g/fs were supportive to my car's needs, but I never let them around when I was working on it - something bad would happen. Like I would be under the car with it on jack stands and she would just jump inside the driver's seat. I tend to brush away people if I'm working or cooking or something, otherwise they just get in my way

Re:My car is running again :D
hhahaha lol.
There was oil leaking everywhere on the ZC ...a ran on low oil for too long.
I heard the bearing ticking and I knew it was going to be over soon...i filled a bit more oil and went on the highway to a friend in another city....then boom hehehe
I got something similar to AAA. So they towed my car home.
A hole at the front of the block and the rod wnet thru the oilpan.
My girl loves fast cars....she is pretty much supportive, it's just that I was working on the car so much and putting in the ZC. I was busy with the turbo install measuring everything and I put the bumper back on etc..to pick something up at a friends(a halfsized radiator)and it blew up.
I wanted to blow it up with the turbo installed.
I didn't touch the car for a few days.
And my gf just needed some attention so i gave it to her and i got a job on the side now...work at night for 2-3 hours.
