This car really is something else. I've loved reading the rebuild thread, thanks Phil :agree:
Is this the end of the journey btw? Has the car now been fully 'brought back from the dead'?
Oh and when is back end being dropped 20mm? :D

Car is pretty much done now for this year just a couple of small things to iron out but then through the winter I'm gonna be looking into modding my vnt turbo to try and get it pushing 300 bhp and hopefully next year it will have a nos kit on it as well for pod. Still toying with the idea of lowering the rear but at the mo I kinda like the stance it's got :)

Cheers Wallace it took sometime alot of head banging and endless amounts of f***ings and blindings mate but I'm so chuffed myself of how well it came out and how well it runs with a fair bit of power to go with the look, I don't think I'll ever get bored with the car as it will never be a daily anymore just for shows meets national days and pod now so next on the list is find more power through the turbo and may look into having a cam built for me at the same time oh yer and some gas of course :wasntme:

Re: bringing my 5 back from the dead
Well had a few spare hours today to spend on my car after having a bit of a hesitation fault after breaking my map sensor and fitting a new one. But again the mad scientist was right in thinking I had fouled the plugs when I broke the map sensor and having the car running on idle with a broken map sensor killed my £100 Ngk plugs :cry: by chucked in some cheap Bosch plugs from halfords and all is good and back to normal and thanks Chris for giving me a lovely mapped usable f***ing rapid 5 I love it :agree::agree:

It came off a dirty grey parked up seat thought I might as well use it seeing as the car ain't going to move for a while as its having new rims fitted that give the car 25bhp more on each corner :cooter: ;)
