My new silencer is here. Used a company that we used to use for customer HGV exhausts. They made me this from two photo's I sent them! Crazy skills. 48 hour turn around too!

No it makes it far more usable. With a type 9 box and a short diff 1st normally only gets you 25mph which is a bit jerky in a 7. Remember they are only light, I can pull away in 4th in this one!

Things I'm still waiting for.... Seats, 16 days since order, been told it'll be another 14 days.... Wheels, 15 days since order, no one seems to have an idea when they are turning up (Should have been 10 days ago, last time I spoke to the supplier they would be with me on tuesday... Tried to...

I've ordered a new silencer from WunOff. Made to my spec so should hopefully sound nicer/quieter

Err dunno. 0-60 4.5 secs ish (this has a special gearbox, I can do just shy of 60 in 1st) 0-100 14 secs ish These things are not fast above 60mph without 200bhp plus.

I'm not rich, I'm just switched on with figures, I do pro-ject management at work all day so it spills into my normal life. I have a similar sheet for all my cars. Generally so I know how much I'm losing.....

Enough to make this an expensive enterprise. Still it's more fun than buying a finished one....

New company on my useless list. Tyre Leader. Packing list shows 4 tyres. The pack is very much two tyres....

£700 for a silencer! Jesus H. Do you s**t cash?

It is fucked. Long down the list though! Ideally I'd put some DTH Jenveys on it....

Todays playing...... Tilet Master cylinders refurbed. All brakes bled with new fluid. I know have wonderful brakes. They still need a bit more work to stop the squeel though. Soon sorted. On the test drive I lost the use of indicators and cracked a cycle wing. I forgot how much of a...

Test day. Positives: Still fast New gear linkage works All the lights now work Seat position better Deffo has an uprated box in it, long first and second LSD locks well Negatives Exhaust rattles New gearlinkage rattles Current wheels and tyres are awful Only the left front Calliper works...

Update. Rear number plate replaced Rear number plate light re located New headlights fitted and re wired in, it was an utter t**t, due to having to play the game of guess what wire goes to what when you are putting 5 into 4.

So tonight I'll be putting it back onto its old wheels with shonky tyres, the old knackered seats back in and the new lights. I may as well spend the weekend sliding around in the sun in it.
