I fooking done my diff on the way home

 

Was a sad sight when i pulled in Mcdonalds and saw it being pushed...

but seriously thats a TOP motor.and i really enjoyed driving it cheers mate...even though ya wouldnt let me go sideways or round the round about lol .........and i fcukin hate you cos i have the distinct feeling i may have one on my drive very soon

remember what happened when i went out in Jim Galballys lol.....look what i bought mum



looking at ones for sale now ....I HATE YOU SIMON !!! lol

 

si see a mk2 come off the mini rounabout outside, dont know if it was you though, too rammed to see

 

the flat bed that came to pick us up was more like a sainsburys lorry lol, we watched it come in and thought it was a delivery or something pmsl, bloke came over then next minute were inside a trailer in a lorry lol
hope you find a diff alright though mate

 

quality

 

was a good nite in all lots are lovely cars up there but without star of the show was the Ford GT

 

1st time ive been in a car with him and broke down and he has his "own" breakdown cover lol

 

Dan, buy buy buy lol!!!

 

foooookk off lol...........honestly it felt sooooooooo nice having a cossie under my toe again..i was grinning like a little kid again lol...sad aint it

still looking in the for sale bit now dont know whether to wait till my compo claim comes thorugh and get a proper speced one or just an average one now

 

Proper specced.... saves time and money, kinda...

 

just buy one dan, if your unsure about getting one then test drive a rapid one, best get one now though as people are feeling the crunch and i reckon they'll only rise soon

 

dont get one for the sake of having one,wait and get a goodun when you get paid out i reckon.

 

no fun, buil it faster slowly and keep the smile on your face for longer as everytime it gets quicker your happy with it again for a while pmsl

 

unlike you paul i have no desire to build up cars anymore.....i think im gonna wait till nov when i get my money and get one then...i proper specced one... .....fcuk it early christmas present to myself

CHEERS SIMON lmao

 

I agree, Id never really build up a proper car again, save yourself a load of time and money and get one done to as near as you want as possible.

 

Dan, get a cossie... Once mines done we can go out tearing it up

I'll be pushing 'high' 300 figures , more than enough to keep with a decent cossie

 

I was even deciding on the spec last night on the way home lol.

2WD, T35,defo let stu do something with it....big brakes...28psi roughly.leathers,defis,ideally i want moonstone too... how much ya reckon i can get one for Si??? been looking all morning but there are LOADS for sale lol and im all confused

 

get a alrite one for say 4k upwards? the other saph with us last night cost him Ł2500 but he melted origional low milage lump by ausing it in the heat but has just converted it to stage 3 so if he hadnt of blown it prob Ł3500 cost him

 

Paul, yours sorted yet???

 

Smokestone blue wasnt a colour in 2WD so that could be an issue

Would say get moonstone but we'd get confused

You've pretty much described my car mate - T35 holding 28psi a MSD chip, uprated cooler/clutch/big brakes/leathers and defi replicas

Just make sure you get one with a decent diff or dont try launching it with 4 people in it!

Your looking at about Ł4500 onwards for that kind of spec imo depending on body.

 

Johns car aint a good spec remember - standard suspension/brakes/cloth interior/ no goodies/essentials like breather/samcos etc...

Johns car would cost over Ł5k to get to what Dan wants, better off finding one done.

 

has it got anything other than normal though like a decent turbo or bigger brakes or something extra? leathers ? thing is you can tell it looks like a 2500 saff it doest look like it has been looked after i dont mean that in a bad way i mean i would like a nice smart looking one now

 

summed it up perfect for me mate... ...thats nice cos thats the money im looking at getting

gonna fcuk the mondeo off too

 

If you mean rstinprogress, its very nearly there now, biggest issue he has at the moment is a fuel supply problem, once thats done, hopefully its basically finished

 

changing his tank and fuel pump today i think chipy.... shame ya wasnt there last night

 

its on t34.48 rs500 cooler etc its actually a clean motor, well worth the money and more

 

going to try and get hold of tank and cossie fuel pump and fit it later on today hopefully then fingers crossed it will be sorted

 

Cool man, hope its all ok when tanks sorted

 

cheers rads, me too, just want it running, fed up with it kicking me in the b*ollocks lol

 

well you built the faults into it when you made it, not anyone else, lol

 

brilliant.............. Chip someone said a qoute you said when you was with pauls car and i cant remember what is was but cowboy was pissing himself over it

 

oh chip, your sooo hurtful

 

Wow great story without the actual quote.....

 

basically a bodged fcukin lump of shit

 

I dont remember saying that mate, as it isnt, in fact, 90% of it is fucking spot on, although he really needs to sort out the whole throttle body situation, thats particuarly fucking "special" at the moment.

 

yeha i heard about that .........and it is a bit bodged lol..its paul..good job you dont charge

 

not at all dan mate, just the screw that the throttle arm sits against is siezed so needs sorting, no bodge there at all mate

 

talking of shit though dan, just reminded me of your old xr2t when we done the engine swaps, we kicked the rear quarter after to find it was no longer connected the the floor due to rust pmsl

 

Well using the cable tensioner to adjust it in the meantime is a bodget if he wants to get pedantic over it I guess, but agreed, no big deal, sort that out and the fuelling supply, and its ready to rock and roll

Car itself is mint, and engine seems pretty good so far too

 

it was built by a carpenter, what do you expect , cheers though mate
