Default Just got back from Jamsport.....

minus the car



What was initially a trip over there to find out if the rad was simply leaking has turned into a fucked head gasket and mucho problems!
I knew it was only a matter of time till it needed a rebuild anyway, so i bit the bullet and decided to get it all done at once.

So... next week it should be all singing and dancing again with the added bonus of stage 1.

Thing is, are u all gonna help me pay for it like Maria's?
(Ive got some tits but cause im fat, not cause im a good looking female)

Not entirely sure how much the cost will be till tomorrow after its stripped (bruv oh so true )

I was chatting to Jamie today about his RST, its looked like rather an empty shell to me!
He said he was aiming for 400-600bhp, somewhere between but not sure where it will end up!

It had a seat in and what looked rather like a nos bottle behind it, apart from that, thats all i spotted.
I think its been on the back burner due to his missus having a baby last week
