New from across the pond

[VG30_S12]

Hey guys, figured I'd make myself known...

My name is Tim and I'm hailing from the US. Although I'm a newbie here, I'm not a complete newb to s12s. I usually post on Club-S12.org and sometimes on AUS12, just 500 or so posts of stupid lol jk

Formerly being a mazda rotard, I bought my first S12 about a year or so ago and I have fell in love... theres just something special about it that I like, so I've been slowly collecting them when ever possible... I got my VG30 Powered S12, then got my notch, and then I've recently stumbled upon this...



It's a 12/84 S12 with a seemingly factory installed FJ20E and other various parts that were not offered in the US,but the thing that gets me is that it is LHD with a metric dash.

Anyway, thats the major project right now and the major reason I joined S12OC. As far as I know, the PO said that it spun a rod bearing. I'll be pulling it sometime soon to check the crank and block... with any luck, when i get it running again, I plan to restore the rest of the body and go FJ20E+T

so if you guys don't mind, I'm going to poke around for FJ20 info and pointers are welcome. Also, if anyone isn't afraid of shipping to the US, I'd love to do some business. Being that everyone is in the UK
thanks
