I've had my 85 auto copper S12 since 93. Great to see these cars are getting the attention they deserve. Have done the head gasket in 94 and turbo in 03.
Stored the car since then - started it regularly - no problem - best car for starting i've ever had -now the engine's knocking.
So I'm now looking at my options and time constraints. This motor is way too
cool and gorgeous to go to the breakers. I'd rather use it as a doss house than let that happen. But then it could be turned into something unbelievable
by you experts. Your thoughts appreciated. At the moment I'm leaning towards breaking it myself, but tomorrow....

NOOOOO Don`t break it up !!!!!!
Although I am a bit biased .
It would be a shame to see another s12 go to the scrappers.
You know you want to get her running again, really .
Regards,
Ian.

Hi from OZ. Long time registered, first time poster. I've been with AUS12 for ages and finally came over to check out how things are going in the UK.

I have one of the few CA20DET's using a CA20 block (still with the original rods) and a CA18DET head. Turbo is from a Lancer EVO III. S13 front suspension, etc.
