Well im not the happiest boy on the world with the car now TBH...

My 1st venture back in to RS`s in 18months,and its ending in tear ALL FUCKIN READY!!!!!!!!!!

Ok,i rebuilt the top end,as i had,what i thought was a slight cam rattle,but now everythings been replaced,and refited,ive STILL got the rattle!!!!!!!!!!

So were 99% certain its the little ends that have gone... So im in the boat now,do i keep the car as standard as poss,or do i go full beans on it...

Im looking at these 1.8 zetec bottom ends,as im not after stupid power,just abit of fun on a Sunday afternoon,as the car is a 2nd car anyway... So a 1.8 zetec bottom end,T3,1 of Waynes coolers (pro alloy),and mabye a set of Beiges,and thats all id do if i wanted to go a bit further with it.. Ohhhhhhhhh and 1 of Stus chips....

So got to look at it in a whole new ball park now,and see what i wanna do and price shit up... But 1 things for sure,its going to get a tad buftied now,might aswell paint it ALL with the engine out etc,which i didnt plan on doing,but fuck it,might aswel now....

OK...................................

Only other thing ive done,is sort out abit of wanky wiring behind the dash,where it was wired in with shitty scotch lock things,for his gauge,fit a new radio,and fit a new heated front window switch...





And heres the fuckin,bastard thing!!!!!!!!!!
