Well, i remember that there WAS one picture taken of me in your hat :p

Wierdly, i have no hangover. Not even an aversion to bright lights. And yes, kev, where are the pics?

I concur¬¬¬++!!

So am i! No welding done at all today - the guy didn't turn up, and i'm still waiting for a phone call! :(

Well, i was supposed to go today, but the Guy arranging it hasnt turned up - fingers crossed for tomorrow :(

The rear arches were done on the outside - although not very neatly, i may end up cleaning those up in the near future as well - possibly even today. All the bad metal will be chopped out, and new steel welded into place. I've had a look at your build thread, and it looks like all Supra's in...

Today: STILL no actual welding took place, mostly we were concentrating on weld prep, and sorting out the exhaust downpipe. Thanks to the whole engine gasket sets, i had the correct sealing rings, although had to re-use the turbo to downpipe gasket...GRR. Have to get myself a new set of Turbo...

Oy....yesterday was stress. Just pure fucking stress. Got to reading, and the first thing tackled, was the rear hatch hinges. Surprisingly quick work - only an hour to get them replaced and all aligned. However, when we stripped the trunk out to get to the rear inner arches...we...

IJ - it apparrently goes; if the head isnt flat when you start doing the machining, and you're trying to make it flat from being banana'ed, even slightly, you'll bugger the journals when you put the cam back in, because several of them will be out of true. Of course i guess line boring them...

Fair do's, but i've heard horror stories about those that have taken too much off and buggered the cam journals up - so i want to take off as little as possible :/ 2 thou ought to be enough for an otherwise good head though, shouldn't it?

I know that the ideal thing to do, is to take off as little as possible - but i'm thinking - should that be 2 thou/5 thou/10 thou ? Same goes for the block - should i just get 2 thou taken off and finished at 15-20 RA?

OUCH! The hinges alone, with the bolts, came to £73.38, even with the 12% discount! >_< Aaah well, at least they should last another 20 years...

I aim to please :D

Woot! Managing to order this lot today through someone who gets a 12% Discount at their dealership - effectively reducing the VAT to just 3%! :D Things are looking up in the welding department too - this weekend looks to be set for an attack of the TIG Welder :)

Always a better idea to get a new one, than a second hand one - after all, new rubber is supple and flexible, and wont stand as high a risk of splitting or just simply disintegrating as an old, second hand one. The one that came off the D/D i have, was ABYSMAL. It literally crumbled away in my...

Uhm....well its a long story, but its not gone, just....misplaced :D Want to see all the crap i've had to buy from Toyota in the last fortnight? Thought you might... Part Number|Description|Qty 19518-42020|Coil Pack Sub-Harness|1 90387-06031|Bushing, Rear Bumper|5 90179-06206|Nut, Rear...

And the next lot... Included are pictures of some ARP porn :p

Right - i've showered, dressed myself, and soaked up a beer or three. Breakfast of champions. Hooah. Notice the rear bumper - hanging from...well....nothing! It's being held on by one bolt and a lot of faith! :D
