2008 - Factory Service Manual

I have a friend who was a certified mechanic which meant that whenever we had car issues, we'd be the ones working on it. I definitely got my mechanical knowledge from him. My 240SX had served me well, but had spun a bearing on the way out to Radium. What better excuse to do an engine swap! So, out comes the KA24DE and in goes the CA18DET. A smaller and lighter, but more powerful engine thanks to the turbocharger. Not so young, but still stupid today. To keep the stock AC working, we fabricated some rather strong brackets with our Asian Engineering and terrible MIG welding skills.

I've liked cars since I was little and remember watching Formula 1 on TV in Hong Kong when Prost and Senna were dominating with McLaren Honda in that iconic Marlboro logo'ed car. There's no tobacco sponsorship in F1 anymore and the cars have totally changed. They were too crazy in the 80's with the turbos and although the lap times are fastest now, it's all due to tires and aerodynamics rather than raw power. I don't own any TAG Heuer watches, but that's where their racing heritage comes from. TAG was a turbo manufacturer and Heuer was a watch company. Somehow for whatever reason TAG bought Heuer and TAG Heuer was formed. Their Formula 1 quartz watches are classic and still quite recognizable. A very strange thing to say about a quartz watch.
