Its a massive pity you wont be there!

I'm trying to make sure ill get there myself! my baby is proving difficult atm but it is tiny teething problems that will get sorted!

hopefully before sunday!!!

Would be good to see yours, a friend of mine had a g60'd g40 (about 220bhp i believe it ended up as) and that was crazy so i'd like the see the difference the 1.5 conversion makes.

His head cracked between the cylinders too.

It deffinalty will not be there I'm affraid, even if it was possible now it would only be to look at. We are all dissapointedd about this as we really wanted it there, for it's first outing to see what she could do.

Oh well.....but not really prepared to rush the job now and potentially knacker the engine by rushing

Will have to use another time for a test bed & see how she runs & tweak after

Cheers for the comments guys

i thought that at the start

Got the rebuilt ATV box with LSD in it fitted at the weekend. Took it for a spin and it is absolutely awesome.

Spent most of the drive playing around with the different driving style, was amazing not spinning at all in any of the gears, ok I might do when I can boot it properly but atm the car is limited to around 5.5k revs, but it's losening up nicely and it won't be long before I can open it up fully *almost pees herself with excitement at the thought* :-D

Also fitted his new 51mm throttle body, obviously not seen the full advantage of this yet, but once it's mapped and I can drive it properly I know I will

so is it gonna be ready and at Ultimate Dubs? i do hope so.. run in of course...

about time thought you had lost the car at one point lol whens intercooler being fitted......finger has being removed from bum hole i see lol

sounds like a case of fingers in too many pies to me..

Err, one car so one pie?

It'll be completely finished by this weekend Dave, apart from the upgrades that I'll fit as and when I can afford. It will be at ultimate dubs yes and it will be run in.
