i want such an engine, the sound has poisened my brain
If i would put an S14 engine in an e21,
what would the pricetag be?
It surely would be a mean machine,
maybe mean enough to throw my grandmother from the stairs and inherit bigtime

If you are lucky, maybe you will find a used engine for about 3000€
But you will also need the gearbox with the sensors in the housing ... etc.

The past weeks , I was working on the body and spoilers.
much work on it
It's about time to get it painted, I start to hate those sanding jobs
and some rust
Before:
After:
At the moment I will paint just the heavy damaged parts.
Not (yet) the whole car

nice job
I use the same 3m sanding blocks
I thought I was the only one in the universe using non velcro/vacuum sanding papers

It is velcro sanding paper that you see.
And the most of the time I use a machine for sanding, just the little corners, spots and turns I do with the hand.

That flooding of the floor is, I suppose, for the dust. You can walk around without bringing a lott off dust on your fresh paint.
