Iv always tried to work on the mechanical side of things before looks if im honest sam, its a far better method than having a shit car that looks mint.

bad times on the bumper you have to be really careful when driving around these days to keep your car in good shape its proper shit.

cheers toadus (dave lols) all week so far iv been proper whorish on the wiring loom for the engine making it look neat and tidy but its getting on my tits now lols.

Northampton day is my completion date and im running out of time.

your joining quiet a list of people that would like my chronos andy aha, they werent clean at all so you couldnt appreciate there full glossyness tbh but there so nice when there clean man.

no worries on that work on your car you helped me out also. it looks alright lols.

aha its all manic atm lols, to remove and lump and refit you could do it over 2 days easily and thats taking your time on removal too. me and alex swapped a lump over from 8v to 16v in 45mins lols.

i seriously cant mate just wanna drive out now getting wet on the way to work is rubbish lols.

not long now just little finishing touches tbh.

Glad its getting there mate, do you think it will be ready to be put on the rollers this weekend??

Being honest, im not really sure mate theres not alot to do im just being a complete whore bag about it as i dont wanna be stripping it all down to adjust something over the next week or so lols

So im making sure everything is bang on first time round.

hope so though as im interested to see what power it makes and to see how it drives.

I'm jealous. I would love to be able to take the engine out, do all the inside of the bay, sort all the wiring, etc.... Looking forward to Sat mate! And i'm running now too. Whoo!

dont be jealous dude. once iv got some free time i can help you on yours no problem. no way mate i need to get mine running for sure then :O i wanna hear bodies plus see you again for a catch up and a scan over the car lols

It's kind of you of you offering mate, as I know you've got a lot on. :y:

Yeah, you will hear the boddies. Sounds awesome, and even better inside when driving. When you accelerate around at around 3-4k, you can hear the valves opening and the whistling and stuff. Fecking cool! :D

I dont know whats more juciy, Lee's build or Toad's trumpets :D

Either way the RR meet will be good.

there is so much going on atm for me mate between work waiting to find out more info on redundancy's and building the rallye every night after work im getting fucked but your more than welcome to come down for the day or me come to you for any help mate its cool.

ooo is that an offer to take me for a spin aha id like to witness the sound of a valve opening and closing :D sounds pornographic to me aha.

i have no idea tbh rushy im trying to see through the spunk just from the thought but its in my eyes.

Defo mate, course I'll take you for a spin. :y:

ill bring some spare boxers then ya aha :panic:

Haha. Will get the map checked first, as it's overfulling a bit now that the piston rings have bedded in. The plan is to go last, and get the car re-mapped / tweaked, and do a couple of power runs. Then it should be all gravy for passenger runs. :D

thats fine by me mate :D ill most likely be there all day anyways so ill just wait around with you

Sweet. :y:

Toad is the official big kid of Sax-p :D Tbh I'd get just as excited at the sound.

Yes you do! It best be there man, can't wait to see it. Much left to do in the next 2 days??

What the fuck is that noise?

its gunna be there mate dont worry

well i wonder lols :D thanks again for tonight bud

good stuff lea, is this finished yet? engine wise i mean

UPDATE.......

ITS ALIVE with no time to spare tbh aha and still things to do for tomorrows rolling road day with the West Mids gang at Northampton Motorsport.

Myself and Bickerton finally got it running at approx. 10:30pm lols, fired over first turn with a few minor issues but o well thats just the teething problems anyone would expect like.
