It was Luke who diagnosed the diff.






It was a super risky buy since I never went to look at the car.




The good news is the rest of the rear clip is in very good nick which is just pure luck




Still excited about getting it back even though I won't have any money left for rent/fuel/food

OMG!!!!!














Where to start.












I got the car back on Friday evening and what an evening it was!!

So I picked the car up from Luke's! I wanted him to take me out for a spin.






So all sorted at Luke's I was off!

As soon as I got into the drivers seat I was happy.


Started the car and lets get this out the way straight away, it's quite.




I have a HKS Hipower with a gutted cat.











So I took the car and drove to Holloway with my mate






I kept an eye on the temps and all was good.





Basically I can't say no

](./images/smilies/eusa_wall.gif)







They get back both with huge smiles on their faces.





So now we got that favour out the way with it was time to head out.



So far I haven't really shifted it too much.





Drove like a absolute right hand jockey back up to Watford.



I only filed up





I'm loving the torque delivery.





So far so good.







Right, I come off the M1 at MK and its xxxxxx raining!!! Not hard yet back just a little.











2nd gear is a monster








If you bang the throttle hard out the exit the launch you get is savage!!!!

I know this is probably around stock power and some of you guys got some crazy bhp but xxxxxx hell!!! She's moving!!!!!

Started to get really wet so I backed off a bit.






Anyway roll on Saturday and I'm working until 3.



I think someone should set-up a meet at Luke's because I'm always meeting some great members there!!!! Had a great time catching up with Will and meeting Dimos




I left Luke's and went to Harrow to my cousins.


Like an idiot I left Harrow with all the football traffic heading East as well



What a good test for the charge cooler system




I must have looked like an idiot, every 15 minutes getting out the car, opening the engine lid and touching up the charge



The outcome.




















Yesterday evening was fun.



Today all I wanted to do was clean the car.










Got the car back and, dried the car properly and went over all the areas they missed out.

























I will be going to the MK meet this weekend so hopefully meet a few more members there.





Hopefully the top mounts will be the last spend for a little while!!!!!!!!

OK, can't resist the urge anymore, I'm going for a spin

xxxx how can I write so much xxxx without talking about the Dump valve!!!

Its a SARD R2D2


I'm super excited because my car is worked on by the Jedi Master himself; Luke Skywalker


Luke told me he's got it set perfectly and he wasn't wrong!!!

It's got this luurrvvly fluttery thing happening around 2500-3000 and on full boost it's a nice normal type one lol.

It's nice and load so I'm loving being chavtastic at the moment.

Crap I also forgot, my sounds are in and running but I can't be bothered to type any more so another time for that update.

Nice story 
I was showing campus to a friend of mine and saw your car in front of library.
When we set of to Xscape in MK it was funny that you pulled out right after me
.
Your car was looking good!

Good to hear it's back and fully weaponised now


I love the HKS Hi Power exhausts.
Mine's nice and quiet on idle but makes all the noise it needs when you do the 2nd gear stomping you've recently discovered


I hope there's someone attractive in the petrol stations, as you'll be seeing a lot of them


Enjoy.
