whats everyone up to today then, im having a rather relaxed sunday for the first time in ages :laugh: watch the match later have a few beers and sort out stuff for work tomorrow
I wish, fitting a radiator at my girlfriends mams, might get a look under the car if time.
Not so relaxing for me; got to pop onto work again today! I'm hoping for some garage time later, that makes my sound so under the thumb :rolleyes:

I'm working this morning, then its off down the pub later to watch the Reading v Man City game...hoping for a Reading win but i think it'll all end in tears :cry:
Removing a gearbox from a Ford Zodiac, then changing over springs on Raider so it can sit lower than what it is at the moment :laugh: order some POR15 to coat the underside of the car, replace rear quarter rubbers for new as they are falling apart and sort out oil feed and water feeds for the turbo and hopefully find a bit more bits to go in the engine bay :crap: its filling up quickily, dont realise how many bits need to go in that engine bay

i think stoke will be on fire 2day there well over due a big win imo. as for satday just cant wait to get in the 5 and drive it for the 1st time in over 3 months. and also meeting the other 5 gtt owners on the day. lets hope the weather is good on the day. and people get the power they want out of there cars. :agree::cool:

i was gonna clean the car for next weekend, but been up since 5am with my son being sick(he's never been physically sick before) not nice to see he's only 2 and it really scares him. The babys 12 days old too so sent her off to my wifes mums so she doesn't catch anything. So.... once again no 5 time nevermind.
why you moving mate? and where too?
Got no where to move to yet mate, just going to rent, got a few options to weigh up at the minute. I'm well angry, they were meant to be here for 4pm.
It's now 4:35 and not looking good............:mad:
well i finished building my panel so i took the 5 out for a spin :) such a lovely day for a drive haven't had her out in about a month......i forget how quick she is :) :)
A day of cleaning and detailing ready for next weeks meet :D

I've just got back from watching grass track racing in Nottingham. My mate was racing for the first time in his busa powered buggy 185bhp at the wheels :-) just washing the 5
Come on the irons... stoke wont beat us today
well done the potters. JRP what were u saying. :cooter:
Found the reason the 5 decided to dump its coolant friday night, damn split hose, means i can't drive it till i can get another hose:cry:
Well that didn't quite go as planned :crap: gearbox out by morning, stopped for bacon sarnies :D then started on the springs, my dad was helping out, managed to tighten up one spring, got the top nut off and removed the spring, then when I was just checking the top mounts the spring compressor decided to slip round trapping my dads thumb between the spring and the compressor. Lets say lack of feeling in a squashed thumb and me trying to work out how to get his thumb out their, finally managed to spin the spring round so I can get to the other side and just pulled the coils together so it didn't push onto his thumb and managed to remove his thum that way. Lots of blood and lack of skin and feeling for a few hours, helped him out stripping more bits of the consul as thats getting a full body restore. Springs seem same as old lot so that didn't help the situation :(

:)Work then look at a van for work
I was bored so thought id have a go at a bit of alloy polishing.
ive never done this before but heres how its going.
i grinded off the volvo intercooler turbo writing, and began sanding started with a 80 grit & worked my way up, its obviously no where near finnished, but im pleased with the way its looking.
i need some help though i need some sort of sanding tool to get it to the small hard to reach areas. im a cheap skate though so just thinking maybee some sort of attachment for my battery drill, can anyone point me in the right direction please ;)

Put the white Clio shell on axle stands. Matt and I started stripping the old chopped up looms out and replace with good ones, then work out what's needed for the next time it's worked on

Nice one thanks rob it looks like alot of theys bits can go onto a battery drill :)
i just couldnt rest today after doing that sanding, i went back over to the garage & took the gearbox & turbo of the volvo engine, few other bits and bobs & just got home at midnight :eek:
I have some of those dremel bits, they can be a bit fragile. I bought a polishing kit from ebay, tried it on some knackered wheels and worked a treat. the pack i bought came with 3 different grade wheels, but also some points which would work. Similar to the below.
Might go and take the intake manifold off before doing anything else ;)

Today i decided to take the engine out of my 5. i done the job by myself and those of you who know me would know last year i was tottaly clueless & couldnt even change a set of brake pads, well i thought id have ago & was supprised it was a nice easy job, im feeling chuffed with myself :D

Adam, I love you but I even I think you're a cocky bar steward sometimes :laugh:
Well I wasn't with my darling other half this weekend so I woke up in bed with 2 women this morning :eek: Nah just my 2 besties, went down to Devon for a hen night and stayed in a hotel. Today I did a surprise parental visit on the way back home and then the gym, nice and productive
Love, I'm no bar steward:scared:
I may have a reliable car, but I don't spend my Sunday working on it, who's to say i'm not fitting my new cams and other bits tomorrow? If the thread was ''Monday plans'', I'd have a bit more to say:D
