Engine is bought from Diversion garage from Queensland, since there are two RB26s, two 4G63s and two Ej25s waiting to be/being build, I have to wait for a long time. Fitting and tuning will be done by Mao, Kaya and his new crew Scott.

Nice one... when you say engine, I'm assuming you mean bottom end?
Shipping your shortblock over east or getting new one?

Yes, I meant short block. Mao lend me a 08 block to be shipped, as soon as diversion garage was notified, he started to build a block from his storage. He was very helpful, and kept me informed during each process.

Why are you getting someone in QLD to build it? Not exactly something that perth shops cant do.
