Happy birthday.

very true mate and that's what I'm concentrating on. Looks like I misread things as well. So actually better than I thought.

Got the car and on my way back home. Love the noise! And def feels nicer to drive. Just at Reading services. Will report back properly when I'm home. Safe to say very happy

cheers dude - thank god mate. Glad to know your cars up and not down on power. Didn't fancy you having anymore problems considering what you've already gone through. I've got my graphs and i will post em up but speaking with Abbey tomorrow first. If i'm being honest suppose i'm a little disappointed with the figures, still got an increase and realistically the cone induction filter probably cancels anything out of the plenum spacer, so the only actual mod that would help then would be the hfc's. Can't wait to actually drive the car though because i know there should be a significant change in the drive. Will post em up tomorrow and also on Saturday i'll get some more info up. Already making a list of everything else i want to do lol clutch, uprated arb's, coilovers, etc

Good idea. I'll give em a shout when I call tomorrow to pay the bill.

I've just been reading. People are saying to make sure the surface is dry otherwise you can trap moisture against the body work. Is that right? Paranoid now and would like to get it done to prevent any rusting

I didn't fit the later air box conversion in the end. Got an induction cone on her now. I know that actually reduces performance apparently. Waiting on specifics for the dyno then ill post it up.

Ahhh. I wondered why it looked so good. May well look at wax oil then. Would that be on all the underneath or just that 2 brace then? Want to do wax oil inside the rear arches. By all accounts they can rust from the inside out due to a build up of dirt. Timmy tuck mentioned that to me while we were chatting at abbey.

we had a good run in wales last year. Apart from the tight uphill left hander. Remember that one chris? Bit of an impromptu traffic jam lol

He's going to give it to me for the price of a pint well here's hoping lol

Looks good. Interested to hear your views on the good and bad points.

You lucky sod! That's a lush one. Love that hump and the colour. Still love that white one though.

well the dyno is done and the car is still alive thank god. Just going down to get her Saturday morning now and i can see how she feels to drive.

Will do. Hopefully if all goes well I'll be getting the car back Saturday. Should be able give u a first hand review then on the driving difference and hopefully the numbers as well.

Happy birthday day

Happy birthday

Happy birthday dude.

Cheers keyser. Makes sense

I knew I'd get these responses lol

Hope you don't mind the idiot question but what does "a blown bottom end" actually mean?

Rofl I meant to say "it does look good underneath considering the weather" although maybe the weather underneath is worse?

Cheers dude I know does look good considering the weather underneath. Got a few more bits that need doing on top of the service but then that's to be expected.

Lol maybe it has been replaced but would have been a few years back. Leonk didn't have it done as far as I'm aware. Although might be wrong lol. @ ioneabee Damn right I cannot wait!

Small update. Thanks to Scott for all the pics that i wanted of the underneath since she's having the hfc's fitted. Couple of pics of the hfc's fitted and also just the general condition of the underneath of the car. Gotta be said i'm really happy with the look of it since i'd expected way more corrosion/rust since the cars knocking on nearly 8 years old now. Even the W brace is fairly spotless General front end pic - new hks oil filter Right HFC Left hfc My dirty box lol Will be getting right under her and polishing that up when i get her back My surprisingly clean W brace And a full length shot Sorry if these are a bit boring, just chuffed she's looking so clean underneath considering More updates as i get them and fingers crossed the review on the driving difference once i get her back
