Nice work mate it looks good. But that makes no sense what so ever? A williams engine will set you back 4-500 quid and throttle bodies about 3-4 grand. So how s that cheaper than a volvo lump? :P
Sorted. I checked it over with Rach's dad. After lots of pondering noticed there was slight movement at the top gearbox mount. The 2 nyloc nuts holding the rubber had worked themselves loose. Tightened em up job done! Free fix :)
Ahhh lucky you knowing someone in the business eh? ;) EIther that or it is yourself lol. I'm throwing a few hundred pounds at mine in the next couple of weeks! Gonna look fresh!
Nah leave it blue imo. If you want a white valver, get a white valver. Not worth all the expense. Personally I'd love a white one so can see where you are coming from, but I'm relatively happy with the tungy atm.
Nice one mate. Good to see someone can go from a much more powerful car like an SX and come back to a valver. I think some of the Mk2 lads underestimate us minority ;). I think you should build up a high spec engine on a stand, and spend your time with it ;)
Bendy bus undercut Rachel on Spitfire Island in Birmingham. I was with her at the time and it was deffinately his fault, but will see what insurance make of it at renewal time.
So that is where you mofo's went! Got stuck 2 cars behind you 3 going up the hill then didn't see you again. We carried straight on to the M54. Liking the Pirelli golf Donny!
All this 16v slagging off lol :P. Fair play Hayley. Look after it, and get some pics up. Anything you need to know then drop me a pm, had mine a couple of years now and there's not too much I haven't messed with.
Tbh mate I was wanting to spray the centre caps aswell. But I had the wheels powdercoated and obviously centre caps are plastic. Was going to paint them seperately but just never bothered. No performance figs I'm afraid yet. Mad a couple of vids yesterday. Will upload them in a bit.

uprated clutch was a bargain! £26 from ebay, buy of the build that was. I think maybe it has had a respray from previous owner, but not in the 'nearly' 2 years I've had it. Pics do it justice to be fair!
Amirs did look nice but unfortunately he wasn't the worlds greatest engineer, and the current owner has had loads of problems. I'm tempted to put my standard lights back in if I can find them, and maybe get a HID kit this summer. The trims under the lights sit really s**t, they dont fit like...
Yeah... Offer me the right money ;)
On a serious note though, it's not mint. Arches are going, so I'm looking to get them repaired and resprayed before fcs!
Thanks for the nice comments though guys.
