Kind of, still bits to come apart still!

So, I suppose I should post my slow and unmotivated progress. It's good I don't need the car really, means I can plod along at my own pace rather than rush around like I do all week. I got this back from the machine shop yesterday, I love freshly skimmed alloy... I'm still waiting on my MLS...

BIFCAIDS too.

You will need a set of 64.1mm to 60.1mm spigot rings, probably a couple of degrees of negative camber and good knows how much stretch. I'd speak to phreebone if I were you.

Only done 'Pod. With a D40 and sigma 55-200 :(

Gunmetal? Or even a nice bright silver.

S2K running gear?

SOHC'd V's? On a 12 cyl?

Me too, but only because I've read Jason's "Girlfriend" threads.

You should never have quit Jim.

His went back about 3 times to them in Normanton, and now 6 or so months later the paint is peeling, and a leak into the car has appeared around the repair area in the rear quarter. I don't know how it works though.

Glad it's getting sorted Claire. As Jim says. Hopefully it's not UKassistance or UKassist in Normanton repairing it. They churn out the shittest repairs ever, Soph's dad has had a lot of grief with them.

Can it hang any lower, just so it swings and hits people in the face?

N/S suspension looks like it's dying compared to the O/S!

f**k that, if I'm off up buttertubs, I want something with decent brakes and handling. Not the body rolling can't stop failbus Soph calls her car ;) Besides, I really should fix my car lol.

Damn. I have no car :(

Cracking shots dude.

I like it, a lot.

Cloths are better I heard.

They're supposed to be higher than the block within a certain tolerance. What you don't want is them sinking. Might double check the tolerances though now you've said that. Anyway, finally got a spare few minutes to check the liner heights, I need an MLS gasket. Missed the Xparts closing time...

As if the airbox appears larger than the engine!

Even cheaper for me to use them ;) Looks smart and simple, something that's often overlooked.

The one tunnel under Frenchgate?! lol. Are there even any others?

Not sure if that coolant in cyl 1 is due to the HGF or just from moving the head. Haven't dropped the sump nor cleaned the coke off the liners to know which gasket I need, lost all interest. Snapped a tube off the inlet manifold by the Throttle Body, and snapped my rear cam cover too FFS...

This.

Please do the kidney grills black like that one matt|H posted. It looks far cooler.

That guy in the first vid must have ruined his trousers.

Will do.

Pics would suck ATM dude seeing as it's jacked up in the garage. I'd rather fix it first and get some decent shots.

That's it, just taking my time and making sure I know where it all goes when I put it back together lol. Cheers about the ride height. I've now got the OZs on and they're wider plus less offset, so it rubs on the rear again. Got some -1.5 deg camber plates to fit to solve that on the rear.
