Here you go guys - some pictures of the tree, and the evil plant in question:

i've seen that stuff on tv....thankfully, no!

Now, i have a vast and annoying garden (4 acres) - trying to keep it tidy is a full time job. However, i have one particular tree that has another plant growing through it - it's almost like a vine - its tough, but supple and has wrapped itself around the trunk, the branches - almost nowhere on...

Jon - how are things progressing? Any updates?

Hehe - well, with this build, theres a laundry list as long as me of problems and issues i want to finish. Ideally i'd like to strip the shell and have everything done from scratch, but thats not very feasible right now. I'm something of a perfectionist - things have to be 'just right'. I'd...

No movement on this as yet - it's on the back burner - i've not given up, just had too many other things on my plate. I'll get back into it in the winter months, more than likely :)

Well, the structural bits of it are...erm...mostly okay, but i'm definitely not okay with the drivers side suspension tower being plated like that, and to pass it through a genuine MOT (safety inspection), it'll need to be fixed. :( I need to straighten out the sills and eventually, look under...

When tony blair stepped down and gordon brown just 'assumed' leadership of the party and therefore, the position of prime minister, everyone moaned about it only to realise there's nothing we could do until the general election....where we voted his one eyed ass out of number 10.

Nick - if you'd read more, you'd have seen that the shell is somewhat...rusted. Inner and outer arches have been patched, i've found MORE holes as well...

Not in the slightest - its been holding me up for weeks now...and even when i get it, i've got a lot of work to do. I found ANOTHER hole in the hell thats been plated/riveted - i need someone that can weld :(

Fuel rail has been put back together - i'm waiting on the wiring harness to arrive from the UK, exhaust studs and turbo elbow studs/nuts etc, some O-rings and gaskets (specifically for the PS pump) and i think i'm going to need some red vacuum hose & bungs, as the EGR has come off...

...well my account just got deleted for stating that. Hmm.

...I HATE THE TIMING BELT ON THIS F*CKING ENGINE! >_< Seriously - it's bad enough that i have to take off the crank pulley and the lower timing cover, but honestly...this thing is just RIDICULOUS! Looks so easy in the TSRM - just move the belt tensioner pulley over, bolt it up hand tight so it...

Hah. Looks like the post i made there got me a forum wide mute. Probably for disturbing the back-slapping clueless mongs that run the place. For the rest of you, i shall quote my post: Now what part of that would deserve a forum wide mute, ban or PM from the admin telling me to STFU? Hmm?

....you guys need the proper context. It's NOT how it looks!

It's never been like that here for Supra owners...not exactly an abundance of the engines. If someone suggested on here, that they turbo'ed a 7M-GE by stacking head gaskets to lower compression, we'd laugh them out of here and tell them to get a clue!

Break out the banjo's guys - the VW scene has officially gone cletus... IMO, if you spend a shitload on management, turbo's and the rest of the build, and you cheap out on the basics, you're DOING IT WRONG.

I thank the fact i have friends with very, very strange habits :P

We did it last weekend, too.

K - well....i'm already online.
