Its the best way to see it.... time and some money, but in the end, you're learning a lot...... I see it the same way...... you'll know about everything about your car...... keep the good job, pretty interesting.....
Hi from the UK! Liking the content. I am looking at buying an R53 as a reliable daily driver for my wife - hopefully it will be reliable?! :/ Totally agree about the 'retrospective fun' analysis of what it is like re-building cars/engines. At the time it is a nightmare, you always run into problems and realise you need more tools / parts or you fitted things in the wrong order and have to take it apart again to get something else installed. BUT...it makes you totally fearless in future when doing the same job or similar on another car as you have the experience of how it all works and you get the satisfaction of having fixed a car and knowing the work has been done properly so it shouldn't break again for a few years! :)
Pretty sure I have the exact same car even down to the color... I have been having less problems (not to brag) but I love that you have no idea either... Super fun car to work on because it's cheap and good for river roads where I live
Is it just me that keeps having issues with the sound / video? It will pause video and just do audio, then refresh restart blah blah and still isn't working. I do live in the middle of nowhere
