Hey guys. Newbie to the forum, here. I have had my '94 Laguna blue for around 10 years. Bought her with some light mods, but she definitely didn't stay that way. Ended up lightened (2150 lbs), boosted (around 270 rwhp), with lots of handling mods. Looked like this:

Long story short, the boost bug got to me. 12 psi was great, but 15 psi on race gas was better! LOL. Eventually the rings went. So, I swapped in used motor. Those rings went shortly after. So I built a motor. Spent some good money on it, too. Lasted 2K. Cylinder walls were polished and the pistons scored top and bottom. Needless to say, I was a bit burnt out at that point. Sold the turbo stuff off, put a junk motor in, but never finished the install. It sat like that for 2-3 years. But now I am back at it. Car will stay NA, and be my occasional street, yet very track oriented, car. Only the essentials. Will be a mix of modern and vintage throughout the car. Got the old lump out, and putting the new, fresher block in. Hope to have it running this spring, and will slowly be working its way to the final goal.
BTW, if you were, or are, on M.net or Clubroadster, I am the one formally known as Spyhunter.
