hey Lachie good news on the SR! has chasing rx3s and evos around made you want more power?  I would suggest try some workshops who have done it before, like combination auto or valvebounce. Vlavebounce would be my pick if they would take it on. did you buy the bluebird?

Nah its on ebay and people stating bidding on it so it didn't make it such a good option. Yeah I've just started ringing around and stuff. I'll get in contact with an engineer tomorrow and see if its still legit to do it. Will definitely be powered by something different be summernats or maybe even the formals.

Ah yeah I see it on ebay, $3600 is still good but it'll probably got for more than that.
I reckon ring valvebounce and see who engineered minime, same guy is currently overlooking a 13bt into mazda 1000 I think, but I dont know who the engineer is.

or keep it regoed as a a series and just whack a SR in and drive it... thats what i would do  Then swap back when you get picked up for rego as a standard car.
