Sean - Not sure yet! Tom reckons that guy has looked after it as he absolutely loved the car! Tbh i wouldnt even know what the fuck im doing with it to rebuild it! :/ And not sure but its better money than what im on!!
Darryl - maybe a month or so hopefully depending on funds! And insurance wise! I need to phone up and see if it will change my premium for this year?! Then next year i shall die

Course it will change your premium for this year, It will go sky high as they have you over a barrel and that is presuming they let you do it anyway, Lots of insurance companies wont insured engine converted cars.
£140 coilovers will be crap aswell, Buy right, Buy once.
Also, Don't bother putting in a XE that hasn't been rebuilt (By somebody who actually has, and isn't lying or do it yourself) Don't learn if you don't try.

Aw06 - Thanks for the advise! Dont think i will xe it after all! Its been a while since pvs and ive sat and thought about it so many times and thought no point! And loads of people have fk street coilies and their not bad? i dont have the money to waste £400 on lowering my car! Id rather cheap out or keep my springs and shocks and just get 80mm springs! Thanks for the advise anyway! Always helpful!
Dan - Thanks mate! I just put my seats back in and for some reason it sits so much better! Alot lower and they dont even weigh much! Havent you got fk street coilies?/used to before you gave them to luke?
Scaron- Thanks alot mate, yours did look very nice and probably best you didnt speak to me around the tents because i was for ever angry and the pricks around us! Knob head in his astra gt right outside my tent redlining the shit out of his car and fucking 3 in the morning! No need!! Thanks again much appreciated!
P.s i have an update for you all but may wait a while and surprise you when its done
