bdohohh Posted February 18, 2015 Author Posted February 18, 2015 That's a hell of an impulse buy! Top man, very excited for you BThanks, I couldn't believe it! It needs rebuilt but the price he got it at he's still saved money and he's actually letting me buy it off him once he gets it rebuilt. Though I'm convinced he'll ask for like £20 or something ridiculous. Luckily I know what they're worth so he's getting his full payment this time! I'm actually so happy since before I even liked cars I always wanted a car that made that 'cool flutter noise' but back then I didn't realize how to make it do that. So now with a blitz dump valve and external waste gate man I can't wait to hear her! :D Quote
Rich-k Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Thats so awesome! Cant wait to get mine to go choochoochoo!!! Quote
bdohohh Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 Thats so awesome! Cant wait to get mine to go choochoochoo!!! I'm so excited like I can't wait! I want it to be a bit of a sleeper but I'm really having to stop myself putting the screamer straight through the bonnet hahaha Quote
Rich-k Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I would, get flames popping out of it haha Quote
bdohohh Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 I would, get flames popping out of it hahaI would love to! But I'm for people not to know what's under my bonnet. A massive flaming pipe sticking through the bonnet, I feel, might take away the mystery. Quote
bdohohh Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 Bubble lightsYup! It was either these or carat lights but I've always loved these! Quote
Dale SR Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 looks much better with those lights. keep up the good work. Quote
bdohohh Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 looks much better with those lights. keep up the good work.Thanks pal! Quote
Rich-k Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 They look great! So glad you didnt opt for carat lights as they suck but thats just my opinion haha Quote
bdohohh Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 They look great! So glad you didnt opt for carat lights as they suck but thats just my opinion haha I love carats as well but I've always wanted the bubble lights partly because they're called bubble lights and I'm a massive toddler hahahavery sharp B! Phil. Thank you sir! Quote
bdohohh Posted February 24, 2015 Author Posted February 24, 2015 for once everything's great and she's running perfectly! not. no longer blue smoke pouring out, but weird puffs of white. unknown cause, obviously. Also my rear break/tail light bulb went so that's another fun expense. OH and finally got round to trying to put a new bulb in the interior light, turns out its just broken for no apparent reason, as the new bulb didnt work either.And she's doing that weird rev thing again where the revs will drop to like 400 then back up to 1200 and just hover between the two if i'm sitting in traffic.Probably just going to drive her into a tree and buy a bicycle.

bdohohh Posted February 26, 2015 Author Posted February 26, 2015 changed my rear bulb all by myself today yeah i know it's like amazingly easy and takes two seconds but I've never changed any bulbs before and didn't know how to get at it and stuff and I was so proud when I did it hahaha. for some reason when i'm stripping the engine alone it doesn't feel that special but changing the bulb alone felt like a massive milestone... i think i'm a bit weird? haha Quote
bdohohh Posted March 4, 2015 Author Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) Hopefully picking up a set of glanza doors this weekend from Browner, so no more rust and paint chips!Next plan of action is to give her the clean of her life, long overdue after winter (think I've properly cleaned her twice since november)And then stick the speedlines back on.Also at some point soon the rear bumper and new tailgate and duck spoiler should be going on, and the refreshed bonnet. And hopefully next weekend will see more work down on the new engine. Edited March 4, 2015 by bdohohh Quote
Walker96 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Would like to see what a duck spoiler looks like on an n/a, thinking about buying one myself! Updates sound good too! Quote
bdohohh Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 Would like to see what a duck spoiler looks like on an n/a, thinking about buying one myself! Updates sound good too!I did see a photo of a duck spoiler with a tte spoiler and it looked class! So I'm hoping mine will look as good! Quote
Rich-k Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Are you going to be keeping the n.a rear bumper or getting a glanza one? Quote
bdohohh Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 Are you going to be keeping the n.a rear bumper or getting a glanza one? I have a custom rear bumper that just needs painted and then it's going on! Quote
