right its been a while, but i have been busy.

the engine crank is now (as i type) on its way to be regound, new shells are coming when it comes back too, £167 thats a bit more than i was first told but $hit happens.

pistons, mahle 0.5mm over size are being ordered tomorrow (10th april), cheapest i could find was £275, in one of my other posts i might of said about pistons being £200, but i cant remember, but these were king pistons, ive never heard of them and was told but someone that they dont make turbo pistons :-? anyhow, pay the rest get the best, or one of them so mahle it is.

block will boe bored once pistons are here, i had it messuered by the place thats gunna bore it and they told me to get the 0.5mm over size so alls good there.


so far on the rest of the car, ive stripped and painted the rear beam, i stripped and painted the rear anitroll bar this aftrenoon.
the fuel tank, fuel lines and brack line have been removed, as have the body kit, basicly the underside is bear ready fo cleaning up and repainting/undersealing

reast really is few other bits like, bottom arm brackets, steering rack etc etc have also been removed.

unfortunatly i got laid off from work at the end of march so i got time on my hand, hopfully i can get lots done untill i find another job, funds allowing of course.

few pics, nothing major just what i have of the rear beam after i srtipped it (with wire brush that fits grinder) and after its been painted,
