On a side note, i could have done recovery

New engine ordered and a **** load of service parts including a new clutch have being ordered between £400-£500 including the engine for everything which isn't bad I have managed to secure space in a large shed of my mates for doing the engine swap with him.

On another note the old engine is going to be repaired and possibly turned into a rally engine I may be getting an old shell and making a rally Grande all be it slow but full of torque more info on that later though

Quick update the correct stud conversion kit has arrived meaning I can finally fit the 10mm spacers and then get some nice lug nuts to go over then thinking of going with these blue ones the car looks so much wider in the rear now and has also allowed the car to come down a little more in the rear also thinking of running spacers in the front too push then towards the arch also [attachment=1:11q4nvuf]Screenshot_2016-01-18-23-18-59.png[/attachment:11q4nvuf]

This should be good If the entire car isn't vibrating I will be disappointed

 

[lowered punto]

Hahaha you should be more worried about vital organs vibrating hahaha

 

[lkc]

You're young so you'll be fine

I'll be watching from a distance though with industrial strength ear defenders :lol:

 

[lowered punto]

Little more progress in the boot build still a long way to go though

Where's that and how available is it to the general public for photos? I can think of a few people who may want to take advantage

It's at cultybraggan an ex army camp in comrie public can access from 9am - 10pm 7 days a week as long as your not an arse they are happy

 

[lkc]

Maybe a bit far then. Worth knowing about though

 

[Brian16121990]

Might sound daft but with those massive speakers right in front of that tank, no chance the sound waves could cause damage to anything?

 

[lowered punto]

Nahhh they will be facing up the way when I'm finished anyway
