Yeah Omex will be awesome so disappointing though for £500 you want a free woman with it but no just a tiny piece of metal

...

I'm hoping that it will all be done around September but fingers crossed as work is pretty crappy at the moment but meh..

What I'm planning on doing around September is fit the bodies, PH3 cam and ECU I will be uprating the valve springs and caps when this is done. And probably a year later get it rebuilt with potentially a Kent PT41 cam which is a built wilder and then get some headwork done. As the gap in-between will let me focus on others things such as suspension etc...

With obviously a whole bunch of track time next year

BODIES ARE HERE!!!!

Well the Royal Mail decided to make my day and deliver these babies

Colin Satchell's box of awesomeness.. and WOW the quality of these is immense the engineering that has gone into making these is just second to none it really is amazing.....

But anyways heres the pics:

And also picked these up from ManC at FCS (Thanks again

) these are being fitted on Saturday!

I'm so happy receiving these really have boosted my motivation to get it fitted now! But my aim is to have it ready for Trax (Fingers Crossed)

You need to get them on instead of stroking them thats the idea

yeah you do need to update your thread more

i will get the steering wheel once my car is built first though

you will see my car next year don't worry, well i hope it's ready

get them on before Trax

then i can detail your car to get your saxo super shiny

Yeah soon enough they'll be on...

and I will do eventually when I can be bothered to take pictures lol.. Next year is too long dude!!

Brembo Fail.

But on another note Brembo's were not fitted yesterday as I will need 5mm spacers to get them under the Turini's as they are huge! but do look the sex

So if anyone has any 5mm spacers I can buy/have please let me know!

moxy89 · 27th June 2010, 10:32

pack it out with cardboard 8v will never have the speed to cause injury

raunchz · 27th June 2010, 10:37

Just get some 5mm spacers from Halfords - most of the places do them
