Change of plan...

I don't think I could bring myself to sell it, have invested too many long days and nights into it.. Going to finish up all the minor things that need fixing and go from there.

    I was walking away from it after I drove it and I realized I'd hate myself if someone else were to be driving it away from its parking spot. It's MY car!

    I agree, I would hate to think that someone else has my FTO.
    I would regret it forever.

    On the other hand, I don't want to spend much more money on it but I know that if I keep it then I will.. it's like a sh*tty girlfriend you can't get rid of.. Can't live with them, can't sell them...

    Removed intake manifold and nipped up rear rocker cover bolts. They weren't super loose but rear rocker or cam seal is leaking. Gonna see how it goes now and if not looks like my 5,000km old engine is being pulled apart to do cam seals...

    Yeah, Tim was telling me about the terror of seals the other day. It seems a right ol' pain in the arse that even when they're new it's like "nah, we gon leak some oil over your engine bay... or not! WHO KNOWS". :|
