[Matt]

Lol I just fail, think beacuse I really didn't give a shit about the xsi I'm kinda making up for it with the rallye by buying stuff and paying to much hahahah

Any advance on that? does it tap? :-P

[Matt]

Nope, not a tapper. Actually I lie, it is a slight tapper due Tibet hydrolic lifters being dry.

Massive thanks to Niall who pretty much did everything by himself.
Big thanks to poodle for picking up the wad this week for me and giving me a lift to pic it up
Also thank to Scott, fooby, grant and jimmy for making an apereance and helping out where we could

Got a few hundred easy miles and a couple of oil changes and a service and we will back back to hooning!
Photos to come later

[Niall]

It ain't a tapper! It did sound bad when we first started it though! Purs like a beaut now!

Give it a few hundred miles and start upping revs a throttle and before you know it you can go ragging again!
Cheers for the good weekend lads! Just got home after a easy drive home and now am in need of a shower, beer, dinner and lazing!

[Ed Doe]

Lol nice one guy's! well done niall! did Ruan make an appearance to help out in the end?

[Grant]

Was a good weekend, great laugh.



Lol cambelt shreds


Cambelt:


Stupid oil catch hose routing for lols


Local brothel maybe?


Geezer playing didgeridoo at bus stop. Crank:


Epic weather:




Thanks for a good one guys, had a cracking time, lots of laughs and glad Matts car is going well again.
Props to Niall for his hard work!

[Ruan]

I'm sorry I wasn't there guys, I simply couldn't afford it, so, Niall - sorry you had to do it all on your own!!!

Glad it's all back and working though, good to hear!

[Niall]

Shame you couldn't come down tbh. Would of been good to see you. Didn't mind doing it all (well not all. People got stuck in here and there). Very satisfying on that first start

[Matt]

Let the pics do the talking.







Cambelt fluff

Rebuilt at last!

[Ruan]

I see Grant was making the place look like a pikey camp... Good work Grant!

[samass]

gutted i missed out on this!
love it how the buy with a hernia is pulling the car up the hill

[Matt]

Haha hero! Surprising how a rallye is "light" yet still weighing a ton if pushing it!

[Grant]

Pikey camp?

Ill have you know the correct term is traveler's estate!


That was not easy getting that car back to yours matt. Next time, we tow it haha







(i'm just assuming there's going to be a next time)

[Niall]

gutted i missed out on this!

What the pic doesn't show you is me sweating my coconuts off pushing from behind (how Matt likes it I hear?) and Matt pushing most of the time!

Really did have a epic weekend. As usual the trolling was at obscene levels and the discusting and sick comments were at a all time high!

[samass]

lol i figured that would been the case, maybe a little less risky then the push of my car was eh?

would been a higher (lower?) level of obcsenity if i was there...

[Niall]

Might of been quieter road but we were pushing it the wrong way up a one way street....up a hill.
Still at least it didnt piss fuel everywhere

Oh and I think we would of given you a run for your money last night at Adams with the levels of sickness and general morally wrong comments.

[samass]

well, as long as you didnt have to dive in through the window to grab the handbrake to avoid a tree collision... all good

hey. weightsaving. racecar.

nonsense. i always take it further.

[Niall]

Actually, I did take a dive into the window at one point and did have a giggle at your car running away!

[Poodle]

Sorry i couldn't make it down for Saturday, sounds like i missed some fun. Glad this is running smoothly now, did sound dry as fook when it was started lol. Good to see you guys for all of two hours!

[Matt]

Matt it won't get any better than it was when we left. It sounded absolutely fine.
Gtis sound quite tappy anyway due to very noisy injectors. It did sound like a derv when we first started it though!

[Matt]

its got better haha i drove it down the road to pick lauras car up and in a 6 miles drive has improved, now really quiet. sounds beaut!just got to take it for a run in before i can giveit some! cant wait to see what its got now!

[Niall]

Fair play. I thought it sounded fine when we left tbh but as I said, mine took over a day before it properly settled down.

[Matt]

Might be me imagining it lol but I definatley think it was! Can't wait to get out my overdraft now so I can pay some people back!

[spillage]
