Had a relaxed drive with Hanzo and Decryphe today. Weather was good with a little rain on the way back.

Hopefully to be repeated again

Nice set of cars! Now only if Moog ever owned a two door Trueno the set would be complete! Tongue
That Mini looks like a great fun machine in the Swiss alps as well!

Back in Hibernation - I got really lucky and found a good parking spot right next to where I usually stay in downtown at half the usual rate in that area Hurray![Image: AEU86 AE86 - Project Sakura][Image: AEU86 AE86 - Project Sakura]

Very short update:
Finally had the block rebuilt as time ran out last time the engine was out.

As original pistons are very hard to get (Nissan doesn't care for old cars as much as Toyota unfortunately) some Kameari where used.

I'm heading back to Switzerland for a few weeks soon to break-in the engine. Hopefully the weather is on my side.
I'll see how many kms I manage to make before I run out of vacation time/tolerance of my wife Big Grin
The rest I'll need to delegate to a trusty friend.

Next time the diff will need replacement as it's starting to show quite a bit of play but one thing after the other.

Time to go for a ride then! If you want to put some KMs on the car, join me both Saturday (special surprise) and Sunday (Japan Classic) next week in Burgdorf and Langenthal.

If it was a week later I would have. I'm just arriving on that weekend and it's reserved for family visits.
