I know i am so indecisive but i have finally decided what i really want!
2wd
Going to put my car back to 2wd and use the Jondell high comp engine out of the track car
Should be fun without the power sapping 4wd transmision especialy with the als + nos etc....
So thank fook i don't have to piss around with front driveshafts,diffs etc...when putting it back together
Can't wait to get it done now and will make a start tommorow

This car has all its original panels and paint and a decent replacement would cost me 8k ish! Even if i put another engine back in mine and staged 3'd it i don't think i would get much more than that plus i am going to enjoy doing it as that is half the fun for me

Yep Rich but in normal use ie not on a track they are dull!
Not to mention there is sooo much to break and they spend more time off the road than on
Spadge do you remember your frustation at Central day at the pod in the 518bhp one, and you want to go back to rwd?
Is this your final answer? or do you want to ask the audience

You know you want to
You know you want to
I WANT IT !
jules you'll soon get bored with that engine after the rush of a t4 equipped rev monster
Glad to hear your keeping her spadge, Just leave it all in one piece this time, and if you ever want a change, just sell the thing as it is......
Wonder how long this will last (In one piece I mean)
Lets start the betting.
I recon Spadge will strip it and sell it before the end of the year.......

If you like the one they are selling, have a look at their new one's progress! I don't think I have EVER seen such a well prepared car! http://forums.turbosport.co.uk/bbs/s...fpart=all&vc=1
