He lives! Guess I'll keep checking in every few years still :lol: that's just the nature of projects though. I definitely can't speak, I had a bit of a bingle in mine almost four years ago. Took two years to get it back on the road, and it still hasn't been painted or undented lol.

Cars, huh..?

My Warrior has had a couple of issues, and it seems Nissan likes to choose not to warranty anything.
Just got the Warrior to my place today, after being at the dealer for 5months.
They took 2 months to decline warranty, then another 3 months sitting there whilst sh*t happened in life.
Now, gotta get a replacement diff for it, then rego again.

But, the Elise…
I will start getting back into it.
Clean it up, check the motor, start making some progress (no matter how slow).

Prob start with those damn cam gears and the timing disc..
