the last thing i heard about stresshead and his eaton g40 was that it had taken a bump in the side of it, what happened to him? or has he just changed names and i cant tell its him anymore?

Didn't know he had twated it? He was using his misses account on here but they parted and that was that. Not sure if he's got another account on here or not

i heard that someone bumped into the side of him but it may have only been a rumor as i heard nothing else about it, did he go to poloshow 2011? i saw him there in 2010 but i couldnt go last year

Think he still frequents the polo3 forum.

I thought he had ditched the eaton and gone turbo.

Yeah, the car's now a turbo. He's not been well and hasn't been on the forums much at all.

He's on facebook from time to time...

You speak to him a lot dont you ste? Whats this about him bumping it? :(

He was trying to sell it last i heard from him

Pretty sure I was speaking to Jon at PS2011 ... seemed ok then?! apprt from the missus situ.

i probably heard wrong then and his cars fine, i cant remember where i heard it exactly. it might have been in his build thread

It has gone turbo and it's not for sale as far as I can make out.

Top bloke tho

Might not be for sale, but he was defo talking about it. Because i was trying to get some of the carbon fiber stuff off him

Ha iv just sold my GT an he commented on Facebook saying he'd cry if he sold the G, I think he was thinking about throwing the towel in when he was having some mid conversion woes, I don't know him on that much of a personal level to say for sure tho.

Spoke to Jon today, he's alive and well and the car aint for sale.

BOO!

hi folks. deeply touched that you missed me. seriously.

i haven't been well at all suffering a nervous breakdown then a relapse shortly after polo show '11 so spent a fair while offline while i battled with reality. I'm much better now tho.

As for the car, yes its now K03 powered as per my avatar. the eaton was just too much hassle and was slowly winding the neighbours up at 6am so converted to turbo and needless to say its an absolute animal now. just afew lil niggles but nothing major.

i did get rammed by a polish bitch and stupidly didnt go through insurance to get it fixed as i feared they'd write the car off. Still a dent but it adds 100bhp so who cares? ill start a build thread when i get a chance with afew pics so you can see it now.

should be at poloshow 2012 all weekend all going well so come say hi and have a beer.

Jon

Good to see your finally getting sorted

What happened to the eaton? Guessing it was sold off as a kit?

Edited 28 February, 201214 yr by Mclovin

Sold the eaton and bits n bobs as a job lot. didnt have any intention of using it again as it was just a lousy fit and anyway, giving the engine death just to get as much boost as possible wasnt my idea of fun.

Ill have to take you out in it now guy. should be running near perfect by poloshow so you can see the difference.

I'll take you up on that Jon :-)

It'll be more lively than when we blasted past the cops going slightly too quickly on the way to McD's 2year ago.

Ah good times

And its definately NOT for sale :)

Good to see you back dude, haven't forgotten about your sticker, I know its in a box in my front room somewhere!

It took a while but I'm all systems go :) try and knock me down now !!!!

Sound on the sticker chap. let me know when time team find it! Hehe

i still remember the sound of the eaton from polo show '10, glad you and the g40 is o.k. :)

Nothing but turbo whistles and dumpvalves now

if anyone knows how i could get hold of Jon please let me know, i haven't heard from him in a good week and i've just bought rear adjustables from him! cheers

I wouldn't worry too much dude he's a genuine guy, iv bought stuff off him in the past with no problems, prob just got a lot on.
