@PerfMadyeah paid 1 million more and bought the best. The seller told if you are buying a mark 2 I should by the best, otherwise whats the point. I said f**k yeah why not and bought the most expensive one advertised

Sold the Birdy.. Now looking for a Presea or a Vista again. Mark 2's are overpriced. I dont believe in spending a single that much over vehicles that are 20 years old.

Ever got the feeling that you will never sell your car but after sometime you really wanna sell it off to buy something else? Yes, im a cold hearted car prick like that

I am convicned that you get your thrill from hunting down cars and negotiating for it followed on by the obsessive compulsiveness <and I mean this in a good way> to get it better than how you found it.
So far..you have not found a car that gives you a kick more than the above (and you probably never will)...
Okay...so..thanks for giving us a heads-up on this..we will start to mentally prepare ourselves to endure the 101 threads/status updates that will be coming up.

Whats the difference between different types of ECU's of the same engine model? For example the SR18DE Bluebird U13 has 2 different ECU types with the lable AT and AL labelled in it, and im trying to figure out does both of these would work in the same car?
-
Where are the other experts that used to be in AL few years back. Even threads are not moving now, Doesnt anyone do any projects anymore?

Cars sales are not that active I suppose......so the crowd asking if a 5 year old 8mil Premio is better than a 6 year old 7.5mil 3 series are gone.
I suppose COVID restricted the freedom of movement needed to go to garages and stuff and the economy has put a damper on parts purchasers etc...so projects are sort of on the low down too ?
All we seem to get is the occasional tech question or two.

Had about 2 rough years being busy. Always planning I should do a review in the AL, but those were like balloon ideas. Love for cars never faded, and feels lucky that I have returned with more and more experiences.
Just like everyone said, with the situation, highly doubt about changing a vehicle other than just keeping it and doing the maintenance.

After going to find parts I realized how many SR20 engines are available in Sri Lanka. I mean every damn spare part shop has a SR20 engine. I thought that was rare. One day down the line when my engine wears off, I wanna swap it with an SR20. Do you think its a direct fit with the SR18 mounts?
-
Just do it
Yes....I beleive the mounts are a direct fit. If I am not mistaken the main difference (where the body is concerned) between the 18 and 20 is the bore size....so things like mounts should fit. Also, since there was a version of the U13 that came with the SR20, that just confirms it a bit more. Even if not, I am sure you could get something fabricated or get the mounts off of a U13 that came with a SR20 (might have to be brand new as these thigns are pretty rare now).
I am pretty sure there might be others who have done it...especially down under...or at least a Kiwi or two...so check around.
