just an update for you guys

yesturday i removed the pistons to find that one ring was damaged (good)
but two pistons were fuked, one cracked (very bad)

not only that, but its in need of a re-bore

soooo hopefully next tuesday the re-bore will be done and 2weeks and over Ł1200 later i can finally start to put her back together. also ive decided to add a new oil pump and shells to my list

Will update on tuesday[/u]

the most annoying thing isnt the money or the time, its my workmates constantly saying "you cant thrash these RS's you should have bought a banger" well you can obvously guess what i think of that
but she will be nice to drive when shes done, i spent 3 hours porting and polishing today
