I'll book the tickets now mate, I won't be able to do the Saturday because I've got work I'll send you a PM with my details

Hi Guys I thought I would do a bit of an update as it has been a while. Well I got the new camshaft from schimmel, fitted it and to my amazement I didn't actually clip any valves. I compression tested it and everything was fine so I boxed up the engine, checked the fluids and ran her up! Since then I have been to bug jam and ran the car down the drag strip. I managed a best time of 13.4 seconds with a terminal speed of 108mph. I am quite happy with how it ran other than struggling with traction in first gear. I am hoping by changing the wheel alignment and tyre pressures I will be able to

Count me in again this year please if there's still some spaces? Do we need to pre order tickets? I'll just be doing the Sunday

I always get like this, its like im pouring money into it before i can start putting my own mods on. I just hope its ready for tatton as im looking forward to a great day and to get to see some of the members..if it doesnt cost too much il be happy lol. Not sure how much 2 lower arms cost? And how are they to fit? Aswel as fitting coilovers and power steering lines? The main thing thats done my head in is that if he would of mentioned it before i bought it i could of sorted it sooner....woosaah...i need to chill haha. Im sure i wont be to bothered once its done and its driving nice [emoji4]

You'll be surprised though, that's why I'm asking. I've been seeing nice mk1's and 2's going for £6-8k on stock engine good nick but not even showroom condition. These type's of conversions were £6k for a 150hp one pretty much when I was doing them 5-10 years ago and even now they seem to still be £4k+ and we're trying to work out some decent costings as they're getting loads of interest - thought I would look for an impartial VR owner view point! I think figures bandied about are like £3k for a 150/180 to £3.5k or so for a ko4 set-up, I can map them up to a Stage 1 too for like £

Awesome, really looking forward to the weekend!
