Has been such good fun doing this whole thing,admittedly not under the best circumstances for Eli but at least it's all nearly ready to go!
And we will see you guys Friday hopefully with a fully running car, get on it Stephen!

Blind leading the blind much? lol
Glad to see its finally running after all this time. If the engine doesnt sell, ill take it for epicness.

All this time? 4 weeks between full time, social times, family events and collecting partsI don't think we've done bad at all.
Anyone wanting dibs on the engine pm a price. Need to recover as much as possible to make up for the costs
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - C2K - 10-09-2013
Oh dear. What was wrong with the 6 engine? How did it die exactly?
Give it a month before someone puts petrol in.
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - Tom - 10-09-2013
Wow what a change, finally on the right fuel, its better in every way except for when you fill up and your hands stink for a while, hate that.

Wow didn't see this happening in the project but think of it his way Eli...boost time instead of bwapp time oh and more dollar in the skyrocket
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - THE_Liam - 10-09-2013
F*cking hell some serious shit been happening here! Can't help but think that swapping in an XUD is easier in the long run than converting a DT to '6 spec though...
Great to see how many people were there to help, great thing about this place
Rapeseed is £4.89 for 5 litres at Costco btw

It is, but you still get GTI raped on insurance, even if you change V5 to xud, its still a "GTI" so therefore your a boy racer and have to pay at least double what anyone else wouldhave to pay!
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - MissTap_GTI6 - 11-09-2013
Remember I am old; this lowers the GTI's insurance a lot anyway. Then again, it doesnt help having my cradlesnatched Ginge on the insurance
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - Ed Doe - 11-09-2013
It's a high insurance group motor with an engine change declared. It wont end up cheap sadly

I checked with my insurance before the change to see what it would be; they advised that as long as it doesn't put out more than the GTI's BHP then it shouldnt make a difference...
I will be calling them to make the change shortly, so I will see!

I don't know what you're talking about. I don't want to know as I'd prefer it to be Gig-worthy

Not yet! Just want to get it running first!!
Re: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - THE_Liam - 11-09-2013
I'd try brentacre for insurance, they really don't seem to give a shit how extreme mods are...
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - Niall - 11-09-2013
Same with green light! I can do anything to mine providing i stick below my 180bhp power bracket and even to go up to the next bracket which is 250, its only an extra 78.85 a year
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - MissTap_GTI6 - 13-09-2013
So I've just called Greenlight to declare the change, that's all done
I didnt ask if I could get my premium lower, I'm ok to leave it as is...
MOT is due Monday; great f*cking timing.... Delaying me from driving it for even longer
Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - devils_fuel - 13-09-2013
Typical lol
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - Tom - 13-09-2013
It'll be a whole different animal now, no more 140mph though!

You mean BHP, right? I know Ginge said the Sigma was fast; but he wasnt telling the truth, was he?!
Yeah I know. I'm sure I'll be fine with 140bhp to be honest. I just want my car back!
RE: Miss_Tap's Diablo GTi-6 > XUD project - Tom - 13-09-2013
You've lost me aha, i just meant you wont be able to do 140mph anymore! :p
