Definitely glad to see this will be back on the roads again... I deeply love rotorollas!

Don't forget to post pics and vids after you start drifting again.

This is sick like the flu. I must come see this as I'm planning a carb'd 13b swap. It looks like you used the side motor mounts and I'm unsure of what front plate I'm getting with my engine.

Great build. Stay on the grind my dude!

So it runs, definitely need someone to go over the tune with me and help me out on that one, It seems like my only main issue is the turbo seems to be getting quite from just normal driving, and its got a bit of an oil leak. I only test drove it around town a little bit last night. Im gonna give it a look over tonight and see if I can see any problems that could be causing it.
