Fook me, there was sooooo much to read to catch up... To be honest it was getting boring with all the b!tching.

I couldn't give a sh*t how crazy you mod your car as long as you don't drive it like a wayneker which i'm sure this car prevents you from doing regardless of engine size anyway..

What I will say is that I think you're crazy but persistent and for that I take my hat off as personally I couldn't be ars*d with all the hassle.  I have never seen someone go through so much trial and error at 18 for something they really want and if you want it that bad then keep it up and i'm sure you'll get there in the end.  I just hope that this doesn't end up dead like the wagon as I was really gutted that the project ended on a bad note.

PS... Purple wheels.

Hahah i think we know how that sentance finishes ;) the arches are a bit straighter but do still look ghetto as hell :cool: will look pro once i've smoothed them but that won't be until i get the wheels sat how i want!

Haha thanks Shaun, i'm planning on keeping this no matter what (to a degree) if engine goes, something bigger & better will go in :) haha trail and error is an understatement :D but it's running okay now, no more drive shafts and brakes are all working again and at this height it's perfect! Same on the wagon man :( worst decision ever but had to be done, i'm still on the edge with my job at the moment, but most of my debts are paid off, so if i get laid off i won't be in as much trouble :) (still looking at another wagon..)

So if another wagon were to appear one day, would that be a project alongside this rather than a replacement?
