Phil Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) boom boom shake the room.. Nice machine there Philbadger. i see you need a td04, get in touch when you realise this. and dont listen to jay, as i know full well a big turbo is more important than tax or insurance. Ah here is to never ending projects that are never driven. hows your alfa by the way? my bmw is great. lol Phil Edited October 21, 2013 by Philm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 cheers for the pics Rob!! TD04?? no chance lol! I have finally accrued a full Blitz set-up, and the aim is for rapid response rather than out and out grunt. That K1 makes Jay and I grin every time lol!!! Alfa is grand, nice and comfy on the daily slog to Portadown, and goes well when someone wants to play silly-buggers! Update As you know, yesterday Rob and I took a road trip to The Costa, and we had a rather delicious Trueno in tow with Joel and Beth, and were also joined by Mr Green! Great minimeet and big thanks to Jay for hosting us and allowing us to rummage through the stock pile and bargain buckets! I collected the Samco S-pipe for the air filter that Jay has been holding for me for a few months, and also picked up a passenger side lower front trim with flare mounts and a flare. A quick wipe with some engine cleaner or CIF and i'll have them fitted later today (pics to follow). Rob and Joel also managed to pick up some bargains!!! all in all a very worthwhile visit to The Costa! and of course, the sun came out as always! Such a special place! I have also reserved a nice factory optional extra that just happened to be lying on a bench, as we all know I'm gay for that shit. Rob has also successfully smuggled the oil filter mount and temp sensor through airport security, so hopefully we'll have a solution very soon!!!! cheers dude! Phil.

Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Nice update mate it will be nice to see the vampire back out in daylight some time soon!!! mines sat out side soaking up the never ending rain!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jaystar77 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Biggest meet I've been to in ages. Think we managed nine starlets, a Levin, a RX and some weird Italian yoke in total lol. Great to see you all, it certainly helped the hangover! Hope Rob enjoyed nosing around the fleet. It's probably a bit hard to process so much Starlet at once! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Yay photos at last! Luckily I refrained from rummaging through the bargain buckets. Some awesome stuff there! Was good to meet everyone and put faces to names. Thanks to Jay for having us down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 cheers gents! first meet i've been to in years lol! the bargain buckets are a dangerous, but GENIUS idea! think i'll be rummaging in those during all future visits! great to finally meet u Chris! car's looking good! throttle bodies sounded mega coming down the lane!
