Managed to source some new bolts for my spacers, so hopefully will be on 25mm spacers all round by the weekend

Front bumper is smoothed. Waiting for paint.

Two rear wheels complete, caps too and on the car

1 wheel done, 1 to go and 2 caps.

Mirrors need a slight bit of filler and spraying.

New grill is on, looks awesome.

Hockey sticks are being done Thursday Smile

Wheels should all be on by next Wednesday
Same with bumper,
Wing mirrors and hockey sticks done by the weekend
Putting a new dash fascia in too at the weekend, something more up to date Smile

And then to replace the rubbers which will be coming from ed doe, hopefully next weekend Smile

Cars coming together nicely. Dead line is 3rd June

Should be done for then.

Epic farce with this yesterday, and yet another black mark against ECP's name. Basically spent the day taking it apart for the head swap, only to have to put it back together as before when we realised the parts probably weren't coming and Matt wanted to go home at some point lol. One of the cams got moved so we had to f*ck about timing it all up again, took three attempts and a couple of worried calls to Niall (hero) where the old belt's stretched.

Matt did manage to mod something while we were waiting for parts, will leave that to him to reveal. Apart from that all we really managed was an oil and filter change, mostly to make ourselves feel better after such a let-down of a day. Had cleared up and were just chilling with a cup of tea when the parts finally turned up... at 18:15... wtaf..?! Probably a good job we were out the back and my gf took the delivery, don't know Matt would have let the courier walk away lol.

Big thanks to my best mate and lolsteve who kindly showed up to take the piss all day. :roll:

All will be revealed later ninja

when everything is back together.

Thanks for everythin again yesterday mate Smile

really appreciated it.
Definatley think might just take the engine out to do everthing, will be so much easier!

And Niall thanks for putting up with all my calls Smile

at one point I was gunna ask you to come down hahaha

Re: matts xsi euro project - Poodle - 31-05-2012

No worries dude, was a good day even if it was a bit of a fail lol. I would, always would if i'm working on any of pugs 1.9+ engine sizes round the cambelt (or turbo lol), just makes life so much easier.

Re: matts xsi euro project - Niall - 31-05-2012

Definitely won't be easier to take the engine out. Clearly you have never removed an engine!

Getting the head off in the car is a piece of piss Matt. Took me 1:15 to get it off and about the same to fit the new one!

matts xsi euro project - Matt - 31-05-2012

It's more the cambelt side of things, was an absolute pisser of a job to get to, hands are too fat!

Re: matts xsi euro project - 4WayDiablo - 31-05-2012

Lol that fannymold looks pink!
Looks good though
What the hell did you do to the lights? Lol

matts xsi euro project - Matt - 31-05-2012

Yeah it's very pinky, used white primer instead of grey, but I'll live with it.

It's my headlight protectors. They were scratched and f*cked, so puffed over on purple for Lols haha looked like a toy!

Re: matts xsi euro project - Connor - 31-05-2012

This turned up Wednesday morning! Will get that on next week.

Mirrors are done

Bumper was done to what I thought was a good standard but when you run your hand across the filler recess you can feel the waves across it. So got to get that flat before it goes on.

All wheels are now done

Use some imagination and you can see what it looks like Wink

Can't wait to get all the finishing bits on!
