Is 4 link on those things pretty much bolt on / weld a few brackets on? From watching hot rod Garage on YouTube it seems everything is available for those old tanks.

That yours then? I bet it cost you a lot more than $6k. Looks like it’s had some work since then though?

Yay @dann2707 you put the non gash plate back

Lathes ***. I wish I had one and knew how to use one.

Spend £30 on a firestick : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01ETRIFOW Scrap that you need the £55 one for 4k - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XTWLSRF

Scrap it?

I watched it. It was good. Top gear is also good now. Double win.

They got rid of the dead celebrity / coversation street shite?

Top work Dan. Could that intercooler pipe be run any better? It would look so much cleaner with it going round the head rather than straight over the top. Is she all legal to drive?

Who did you use out of interest?

That first red Porsche must have had all its driver aids turned off. I doubt it would lock up and spin like that normally.

Glad to hear that coming from npower too.

I think you mean the red/maroon one that got rear ended by the sideways TT? The TT driver got airlifted to hospital. The TT looks ok but a sideways impact like that

I know a few of you saw the video on facebook. Here's the aftermath: https://drivetribe.com/p/watch-as-the-nurburgring-descends-FK8XBOHbTU6bzxTw6zuiLQ?iid=UX4aqIrORHyUdZ9ublFiDA&utm_campaign=main+&utm_medium=fb&utm_source=organic

I just switched too

Why was the engine out dan? To swap the gearbox?

I currently pay £117 p/m with npower (bunch of idiots) thats on a 3 bed detached bungalow with the wife home most days so pretty heavy usage. Unfortunately i'm stuck with npower until January (due to their inability to setup a direct debit in the past) but i'm looking to jump ship then.

Tested seems to have gone poo since Adam went there full time. But yeah the one day builds are the best bit.

Report back in the middle of summer

It’s had 7.9” 4 pots for years now so the wheels went straight on. The wheels need refurbing. I got them second hand and the laquer is doing what they all do. Tempted to get some force racing ones if I can find the funds.

So I thought id post an update of whats been going on with the mini the past few months. Heres a picture before: I decided it was time for 10 inch wheels which also meant new arches, new arches meant welding up the old arch holes, welding up the old arch holes meant repainting most the car… you get the idea. There were also a few paintwork issues on the frontend that needed sorting out as well as a small amount of rust on the bumper lip so that was replaced, oh and a door skin required.. Started stripping things off, couldn’t go too mad as I had to drive it to my dads unit. Paint blister on the rear quarter The front panel mess. More on that later. The mess under the giant blister on the front panel. It looks like when fitting the grille I managed to crack the paint, a few years later water has got in a few places and 2 layers of primer had separated. Luckily the rust was just surface rust. Old bumper lip removed, sand blasted underneath and new lip fitted. Old dead door skin Rest of the front panel cleaned up Arch holes welded up (new arch holes in pic), side repeaters removed, all primered up. Same story at the back. About to get painted. Painted and home Reassembly Done Unfortunately I don’t have any pics of just how much work the arches took. They started out life like this: And had the outer lips removed, but they fit like crap so had lots of modification on the inside edge, which left the screw recesses paper thin so they had to be reinforced with more fibreglass. Probably 1-2 weeks work all in all.

There was absolutely no need for that pump bracket to be that complicated. But yeah awesome non the less.
