Right bit of an update......
Spoke to the guy bout lunch time today, he said everything is up and running, apart from it has no fuel pressure !!
Said he had a bloke coming round to give him a hand on it today. I know he's had a bit of a nightmare with the car as the last company who converted it to a XE changed all the wire's to red and black, when their all ment to be colour coded so you know whats what.
So he's gotta go back and re check all the wires again don't think i'm going to be at the meet tomorrow

From the car bonnet angle, you did??? But seeing as its in the middle of the road, i'd say Fad took it really.

REally, that skyline was playing with us. Had a dabble against a rarri last night in the astra as well

You will love it mate, they are sooo quick, as said before on this thread though just a matter of getting traction at lower speeds

Right just got home, would like to say a massive thank you to JR and Lee otherwise i would have been stranded in Dartford!!!
Went to pick the car up and took it for a little test drive went perfectly........ soon as i had over cash get less than 500yds down road it dies..... so chap comes along has a little fiddle with some wires and it fires up!! So i get back in but 100yds down the road same thing again!!! This time i'm starting to get a bit pissed off, so another quick fiddle with the wire and it's up and running again, all was going well as i was heading for dartford really enjoying it. Didn't give it any stick as i just wanted to get it home in one piece. So i arrive in the garage where i have arranged to meet jr pulled up the car got out and notice that water was pissing out the bottom of the car ( by this time JR had arrived ). Had a quick look around couldn't see anything as it was too dark, so took the car round to Sir lee Mitchell's house and he spotted straight away that the turbo has buried it's self into my rad. So about the essay
