nah its gonna take a lot of abuse to do that to the 4paw lol my dads face was priceless tho when it started throwing shit out i wish i got a pic of that the pics make those bits look smaller its a proper hole in the box about 9 inches long and 2 inches wide picked up a second hand box for 100 notes its in now and drives minted!

haha bit of a fail really i baught a 2001 transit a couple weeks ago and the gearbox was fucked, no gears at all. Me and dad towed it home and it was fine then we went to tow it upto my mates today to fit the gearbox and it wouldnt move. we initally thought the rear brakes had siezed up so dad decided to floor it in his van to try and free them off then BANG! there was gears, oil and bits of gearbox and clutch everywhere i guess the diff was a bit stiff

dont think that will fit my TRANSIT

been itching to see this! looks better than i imagined mate keep it up

looks mint buddy. tell you what if you stop smoking in it ill donate a non smoking ashtray to it! deal? that other 1 that was breaking a month or 2 ago is back on the road, theres a thread on tgtt. a lad baught the rolling shell and got to work and had it boosting in a day or 2 lol

ouch!

you are easily put off liam lol but yeah i wouldnt have been happy if i was sold a decat that didn t fit especially from some1 like ricky as his stuff is usually top notch whack 2 bolts onto the decat and tighten them against each other and they wont come off. had to do this with my glanza as i was loosing the nuts every couple of days.

im up for it! edit the sub title and try and get some names down

just like any other glasgow meet how about a go karts meet? that'd be a laugh

didnt expect you to go all out sleeper with this going by your V lol im with you on not going back to a fwd ive drivin a few mates GT's latley and the difference the 4wd makes is insane. Mines might still be N/A but i still have more fun in mine than any of theirs

mines tipped the scales at 980 with a full interior, spare wheel and half a tank of juice they arent much heavier. Wonder how light it could be but ive got a kid so cant strip it out:(

is that on td04 danny? thats a good result!

haha i can imagine his face now

did you try this? did you get a spark?

mines could really do with a rarb and these shit tyres are really letting it down atm but i never really get a chance to drive it in anger due to always having my son in the car. mines coming off the road next weekend to start work on it finally! when they are all done we will have to sort out a meet/trackday for a proper 4paw tear up!

my comment wasnt aimed at anyone, just in these types of thread in general. People always come out with the worst case scenario. i wouldnt just swap it over for a enw engine right away. are there any members local to you? maybe ask if they could swing by for a wee look at it? hope its nothing too serious buddy

how come every thread on here about cars somking theres always people just shouting out yeah its your valve stems, no its your piston rings, no its fuel cut . all your doing is making other people pick up on this and then they decide to say the same things in the next thread about a smokey car. no offence to anyone ,i know there are a lot of people in the know on here but its too hard to tell without having a look at the car. ITs ok to point people in the right direction but can you really give a diagnosis on a problem without seeing it or without getting a detailed description of the probl

shame its on the wrong side ;)

looking good mate!

1st gear is really short on mines, im sure when its boosted its gonna be far too short. they do handle awsome tho dont they, ive got budget tyres on mines atm and ive had a few brown pants moments but when i had the paradas on it was like it was on rails:D does yours have a rarb? i had a look under 1 day but i cant remember if it had 1 or not.

too much work has went in to this to throw the towel in now mate im sure it will be boosting again soon!

Don't give up mate!! What Made it let go? Too much boost?

really? thats where im from mate lol whats their names?

nice 1 lee! i got a new van last week so my cars coming off the road very soon to start the build, whos mapping ures?

well i was in geronimos (kids play area) with the mrs and our son and he drove past on duke st in dennistoun. my car was parked right next to him facing him and he didnt even see it lol
