how goes the big BHP panther roundabout?

I got the email saying that scooby_si had replied to this post and all that jumped in to my head was "THREAD HIJACK!":D

Spoke to Pip today. Apparently they were just welding something on the rad. Didn\'t ask what though. I\'ve asked him if I can try and have it back by Friday, as I\'m missing it now and Pips had the car longer than I have. :rolleyes:

They are going to fit a HKS dump valve and the air filter. I\'m guessing they\'ll have done the dodgy temp gauge by then as well.

Most of the other jobs were minor/setup type jobs and can always wait.

The list of required work as it stands at the moment is ... fit the 2 extra bonnet pins, get motec readings and set rev limiter, alter front suspension setup, secure the left mirror - it\'s a bit loose, check engine mounts - add additional support if neccessary, fit sidelights(probably wait until MOT is due again), fit new mirror switch (up don\'t work), install extra gauges, check fuel pump to see whats fitted, get the minor dent in the door repaired, replace door lock barrels, fit traction control if I ever get the unit off Japvillage.

Oh yeah, and then there\'s the other stuff like getting the security guys to finish my alarm install for full closure, setting up the motec for higher boost and of course, one day when I\'ve got money again it\'ll be re-nitroused.

And fit drag tyres.

See - hardly anything to do :rollin

it\'s a big BHP thread init but i can split the thread if yer guna keep writing essays lol only kidding mate glad to hear she\'s on the way to full useability & i\'m sure the wait will be worth it both in the long term reliability stakes & cause it\'s so much more fun when you delay the enjoyment (uh oh now that does sound like another topic lol)

I\'ll get a pic of the one on the side of my car as well when I get it back.

This shows the pink panther that\'s on it at the moment. Not the best photo of it, but I\'ll do some better ones when I get the car back off Pip.

Yeah, I noticed that on the pic too. That pic was back when japvillage had it, so maybe that was just after they\'d wrecked another engine:D

I\'m really hoping to collect her on Friday, but not too sure yet. Spoke to Pip again today, and it sounded like there was some progress.

Not sure when I\'ll be down south yet. I know that it will be going to Santa Pod as soon as I get chance and am happy with the setup.

Cool, good luck with it all. Be good to catch up some time and have a natter :)

Thanks,

I have a pic somewhere of your pink panther car before Japvillage did all the work to it. It was originaly white. I\'ll try find it if your interested.

Roundabout-Now

That\'d be really cool to see. Post it up when you get chance. Thanks.
