latest update
At least mine (in its current form) is ready for TOTB I will be gallantly battleing for last place I expect lol.
My preperation for the event included 2 bottles of octane booster, a new set of spark plugs (fitted last night) - an oil change (completed last night) and a decat pipe
Decat will be fitted prior to departure on saturday lunchtime as I was too knackered/lazy yesterday to finish it off.
oh oh oh - forgot to say the Blitz Nur Spec exhaust is now no more
has been replaced by a HKS Hyper - of which I can see needing ome pretty major modifications to the routing, as it appears to take the longest route possible to the back box lol.
Final checklist for TOTB includes:
Green Flag assistance - purchased & a high probability of use
Octane booster - hey I might break into the 11's with that & the N2O
Full bottle of N20
Beer
& some good luck that hopefully I wont pop the engine
see you all there!!!

What to do im not sure, leave it as is untill the new one goes in, then get this one out & have a play myself

I dont want to blow it to bits though I fancy a home made engine build - got a few ideas to do it on the cheap this time to see what I can get
David - good to finally put a face to the name!, shame you couldnt come get pissed on sat night, at least I would have beaten you at something

a month & a half & not a lot has happened
have finally sorted an inlet manifold out
just finalising the details next wednesday - the JUN one at £3000 scared me a little lol!Today I ordered a few bits & bobs for the engine (minor stuff - cam pulley wheels etc), a three point rear strut brace, lower suspension cradle etc
Might as well make it handle as well as I can for my inadequate driving
Hopefully the updates will be a bit more regular from now on

Oh - I bought a new steering wheel now
STILL being fvcked around with the inlet manifold :grr: getting expensive all these calls to Canada
Think I may have bought a boot mounted alloy fuel tank for peanuts, designed for circuit racing! - saves me having a surge tank though!
Anyone know about firewalls & stuff for these? I assume i might need one in the bulk head
Must sort out my bloody warped disks soon
So much to do - if only it were as simple as building an engine & lobbing it in.....

well the roll cage that Safety Devices said would fit errr didnt
Not much gonna happen at the moment im working my *** off for the next month, awaiting a part delivery of some chassis bits. The actual engine build should start in the next month (ish)
Oh the other reason im working my *** off is becuase I am about to do something very silly elsewhere
