So a small update...
The 1.6 engine in the car is fucked. Thats the technical term too. Basically its losing/drinking water and slowly using oil.
Water side of it - headgasket failure. I know this because...
1) I top it up everyday

2) Exhaust was blowing, took it apart put some silicone sealant in there even though it didnt really need it, started the engine with only the downpipe on it to piss off the neighbours and to make me slightly happy, water pissed out the downpipe.
3) It likes to pour out white smoke from the exhaust for a when first started up in the mornings or after its been standing for a few hours.
Oil side of it - could be piston rings, valve stem seals... who knows. At the end of the day I needs topping up every few months. It was literally dry the other day

I noticed a clunk when I started it up and thought 'turn it off, check oil' so did it instantly, and wahey, no oil in the engine.
So the engine is fucked, luckily I have the 2.0 engine sitting in the garage which hopefully is mechanically very sound. Just need HO/RS1800 inlet, 2.0 MAF and ECU. Then I think its good to go in. I could technically slap it in there with the 1.6 stuff but I dont see the point doing that because it will run like a bag of shit and I would still have to faff around putting the other bits on which I would rather do while its out and have it all sorted in the car and running perfectly.
Idealy I want to put a new cambelt and clutch on the engine too, also water pump ect. So that needs doing. Money is the main issue really.
Also, my rear wheel bearing is fucked, again, think its the other side this time compared to last.
And I lost half my splitter from the bumper, dont know where either lol.
