  9. big thank you to you phil, joz and liam just back from the wake at my grans house. my gran raised her 13 kids herself she had 30 grandkids and 27 great grand kids with a few more on the way, had one hell of a night everybody laughing and smiling just like my gran would have wanted funeral tomorrow that will be the hard part for most i think
  10. havent been able to touch the car since stripped the engine on monday as my granny died this week so have that to sort out and the funarel on friday so get that out the way first and work from there
  11. well monday morning saw me and alan strip the old engine and wasnt expecting it to be that bad, list of what was wrong with it 1. all bearings scored aswell as crank 2 1 set of spun bearings(2 bearings were melted together) 3 the bottom piston ring in all 4 pistons had seized in the piston, which let the oil into all 4 chambers 4 oil pump seized due to parts of bearing blocking the pickup 5 valve steam oil seals on the exhaust side were worn 6 looks to be a burnt valve 7 one of the cam caps seem to have came loose(the one that holds the dizzy on the cam ) so minus the spun bearing and seized oil pump i think it did very well to make 94 bhp a month or 2 before it died
  12. your wrong there is also a port on the n/a rocker cover just in a diffrent place you put a pipe from the pcv valve (green plastic right angle thing) and other pipe onto the metal pipe off the rocker cover(top right of the rocker ) put them into the catch can the there will be a vent pipe off the catch can let it dangle towards the ground
  13. that wont be happening haha its a cusco carbon rear strut brace with titanium ends and a trd front strut brace
  14. good lawd bet your over the moon
  15. yea its going to be fully striped and resprayed
  16. if i welded the cage in and seam welded it i could prob run without a c pillar bar as i doudt it would stiffen it up anymore
  17. basicly guys im going to get my cusco bolt in cage welded in and im thinking while im at it should i make a solid cpillar brace and weld that in also, thinking of making some other customs braces like some of the stuff you can get for the honads, do you guys think it would be ok to do and would it stiffen the car up more than bolting it in ? thanks joel

  23. come on everybody WE CAN DO EEEEEEET!! joz man can you check make sure i donated pleaase im sure i did but just to be sure
  24. haha you like that sparky, well tonight saw the old engine out and by god she is truly fucked. from just taking the sump off we think that the oil pump has seized resulting in the big end going but what made the oil pump go is the good bit lol what looks to be piston ring chunks and shards have blocked the oil pick up still need to strip the engine to see how bad the rest of the engine is lol
