  1. i know how difficult it is mate, i was on the verge of giving up aswell, but dont let it beat ya. sell some of the bits off it to raise some cash IE.. things not really needed, but it will raise some cash. you have to prioritise on your car, what you need and what you dont need .....
  2. I've got some nice alloys here we could do a P/X with to sell her up
  3. I've got £600 rent and bills to pay, but i still manage to cope...... just. if i went home to my mum n dads, mine would be 400bhp in 4 months!!
  4. id take the wheels and nuts
  5. youve made 498 posts, 497 of those posts are topics and questions that are already covered. look it up on here mate, thats why the mods do this website for information.
  6. keep your origional in the car, i got pulled with mine like yours, they made me rip it off on the side of the road before i could go, and was going to give me a £60 fine but i talked them round. its just not worth the hassle mate

  16. Think this thread should be locked now, we all know whos telling the truth... Besides i may be buying it yet LOL
  17. Good luck with it! hope all goes well for you. How many more people are there thats going to be in the PP club?? lol
  18. ALOT!!!! Its not as much as you would think really, 650 quid for the gears to be made out of billet, and 250 for the gears to be assembled into the box, not too bad but still quite alot of money. would be a hell of alot more money if i wanted it done ASAP, but because im not in a rush they did me quite a good deal. I've seen dog boxes go for more than 2000
  19. haha, i was very lucky indeed, my mate and a garage said to me to just drive it and see what happens, but i couldnt do it, i had to strip it and find the problem. DONT LISTEN TO YOUR MATES OR GARAGES!!!
  20. **UPDATE** Well its been too long, far too long.... I've stripped the engine down, completely, the heads off, pistons, rods, crank, sump the lot, its all out. When the engine failed my first thoughts were the piston rings, well, i was wrong!!! i took all the pistons out and the rings were perfect, in fact it was the third piston itself, it had a hairline crack in the side and fell apart in my hand when i was cleaning them up, so i was a very lucky boy that it didnt break off in the block itself. Im still waiting for my new forged rods & pistons to arrive, I've been told they will be with me in 2 days all being well. Also!! I was on about a while ago about a DogBox, well, I've given my gearbox to a company who are going to re-build it with the straight cut gears, im not in a rush for it so it should all be finished within 3-4 months. Il see how i get on with it, and if people are interested, then maybe i can do a group buy on them?? Pictures will be added on friday!!! cheers Dan
