everyone is calm

dump valve or no dump valve, all that matters is that its a mint FRST

just saying what I read and why I said he was going down that route. Didn know you knew him. So yes you would be correct.

all im saying on the matter is that when we was sorting mine he told me he preffered the chatter that his made, and i was winding him up when on the way from the north meet and kept making my dv go off next to his car, was not saying you was wrong it what you was saying was just saying that is what he told me.

this rst makes me want one so much . . .

looking sexy as ever dave. cant wait to rub my widge all over it.

soooo we on for this bet then dave ? already got to beat my mates escort Rs and that running just over 200 bhp lol , you keeping the original cassette player in ? and fancy swapping fuel rails with me for the other cossi ones ?

is a willy waving contest necessary?

dave's one should sit and soak up the undoubted praise

I am not sure we should invite Op to events anymore...

Loving it, you are certainly a dedicated man, just think how much more power you could have on the darkside.

When will the RS come out to play with my little blue dragon?

shame on sump. i took my sump off my cabby, cleaned it and glued the gasket on, left it overnight then fitted

Well she is fixed now. Did the gasket again today and it was still leaking in the same place. Had a closer look and it turned out it was leaking from the oil pump just above the sump. Turned out the bolts were'nt tight on it! Tightened them up and now she is fine!

The gasket was leaking originally tho so it was worth doing

MOT is tomorrow morning at 11am, feeling nervous but at the same time im very excited about driving her. First time actually behind the wheel of a FRST!!

Wont be getting much sleep tonight

Fingers crossed for tomorrow

Well she failed!

Not much at all tho. Handbrake needs adjusting slightly which I have done now but the main thing was the front shockers.

Basically, the springs were moving within their carriers so it failed on that. Took them apart when I got back to see if the bearings had seized and it turns out the numpty I bought the car off hadnt put bearings in!

..........hence the springs moving within their carrier! Ordered some new bearings which I'm collecting tomorrow morning, fitting them then getting it retested tomorrow afternoon.

Still very happy tho as she passed on everything else!

Well pleased with emissions too, the limit is 1200ppm for hydrocarbons and mine is kicking out a mere 168ppm

Have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed driving her the 2.5miles to the mot place, sounded awesome when the turbo spooled up then hissed when taking my foot off, loved it!

Fingers crossed for tomorrow now
