Well as some of you may know, my mini got reversed into last week :
My First Crash (Link)
My pride and joy, ruined before my eyes in a few seconds .
Damaged rear quarter.
Damaged door.
Both.
Any way, life goes on, and it looks like his insurance company will be paying out , and have been for a few quotes and they have said te damage is repairable . But as the winter is drawing in soon , I have decided to keep it off the road until June '09'ish when my insurance runs out and I will hopefully have a years no claims, so it will be a little lower than my first year.
So I'm back to driving the good old Fiat Cinquecento , disgusting I know, buts its reliable and had good MPG, so I will be saving that little bit of extra cash.
In that time I have decided to do the things that I want and need doing to it, so here is my list so far:
Engine Rebuild
1. 998 engine
2. Pocketed
3. 1275 High Performane head
4. HIF 44 Carb
5. Supercharger
6. Orange clutch and AP plate
7. Turbo oil pump
8. High capacity water pump
9. 998 crank
10. 998 + 40thou pistons
11. 1.5 roller tip rockers
12. 256 Cam
13. Oil cooler
14. Straight cut drops
15. Centre pick up
16. Megajolt ECU
17. Lightened duplex Timing Gear
18. Charge cooler (If it can be fitted)
19. A Paul Wiginton Gearbox Baffle Tray
20. Lightened & balanced con-rods with up-rated bolts
21. Steel centre main strap
22. Lightened and balanced flywheel
23. Smaller pully for more boost
24. Silicone hoses
So keep your eyes peeled in the wanted section as I'm going to be needing a lot of things.
New engine to be completed and in by Bingley 2010.
These are the only few things I can think of at the moment, so let me know what you think.
Cheers
