yeah fun though isnt it just thinking fook it and building the car you always wanted it to be on the plus side if you fancy a change in the future you could probably sell the lump complete and break the rest of the car to make loads of your money back or buy something new and VAG and drop your lump in there phil and put the new cars lump in the beeza

off to work for the first time in a while now boys, cheers for that tom, appreciate it, i'll have a looksie what i get on my van when i collect it friday

 

[Forbez]

Ooh, i've got itchy fingers now.

Is that 3k all in Phil??

 

[PhilW]

Good luck dave!


Gotta be about that, maybe more but i'm not holding back on anything, i want it done properly.

1500 quid will be for the turbo kit, 3" inlet and manifold, delivered.


I mentioned once, in one thread that i'll be selling my DP and i've had 3 PM's about it. Funny.

 

[Forbez]

No PM's from me, a straight up first dibs on that turbo! (price dependant that is)

Stan, i'll buy Fox's Classics in bulk!

 

[PhilW]

Lmao, jonzy has called the turbo already. Rogers has tried as well.

 

[PhilW]

Anyone want to buy my Alpine amp and wiring kit? 100 quid.

 

[acidstrato]

[Forbez]

Looks whats just arrived for me:

No prizes for the first person to guess where they came from!

H3 Fog lights, in bright white (to match the HID's) for about £3.50 inc p&p.

Slighty disaster with a central heating system means it's on hold till back end of the year. At the moment my house is taking priority over the car, so much so I havent touched it for 2 weeks!

 

[Forbez]

houses are a fecking expense aint they!

 

[StanTheMan]

Its the suprises that are expensive lol

 

[Forbez]

Yeah, you dont really plan on things like the heating.... gutting though, hope its all ok now Stan!

 

[acidstrato]

me rings and bolts turned up today...result!
mcgards look sound

wheels going on this afternoon

 

[PhilW]

Good work carl. Bet you cant wait to get them on.

Still havent bought anything for mine yet.

 

[acidstrato]

yeah just finished, well happy with that. much better with the spigot rings on

tried cleaning the oe rims with the pressure wash, no luck, sprayed em up with Gunk, nope, then with some megs shampoo and a brush. better but still mighty dirty!

 

[PhilW]

lol. Leave some winder wheels on it, seriously harsh stuff.


I hate tryin to sort things, i just want to order a clutch!!!!

 

[StanTheMan]

Hurry up with it lol, my back end is starting to look like yours!

 

[PhilW]

Give me a hand then.

I need a SPEC stage 2 clutch with or without flywheel (martin might have a spare one so i might be able to buy that). Any places i can look? APtuning, MJM Autohaus, WRD and ECS so far.

 

[PhilW]

Might not have to buy new pistons afterall.

Looks like the wear is minimal and will just need a hone and new rings.


I think i'll still throw in some rods tho, he said everything looks mint otherwise, all clean and looking good.

Finally some good news.
