Hi Evereyone,
Ages since I posted anything here, not that I have stopped by build, no more disgust at the approach of my local SVA centre.
Had my 3rd re-test yesterday, failed again!!
Plenty of lectures on things like:- Do Marlin still make this? Do not like the engine set up have you thought about... I wouldn't use flexible brake hoses that long, why dont you replace em with pipes.......
Yet another inspector failed my car and gave me a list of items that I should change, this one started with the steering rack, moved onto chassis, on to brakes and finished with changing the engine position!
Funny, nothing constructive.
Booked in for a re-test next Tuesday, if it fails again Limpabit should look for two body's floating in the Thames one Orange and the other Red with anger.
On one good note I actually tried a 0 to 60 from a set of lights, if you are building a turbo like me I suggest you use extreme caution, neckbrace and do not eat for at least 2 hours before making the attempt.
I always thought those evolution thingy's were supposed to be fast. From watching in my mirror I'm sure he had it in reverse.
Best wishes to all builders.
