The Galant

[valleyforge1]

the boys in blue....
ya aving a larff mate, "im sory but unless you have some hard evedence there is nothing we can do."

*vents some steam*

its okies tho, i got my own back on the buggers

were i live is owned by housing assoation, so a quick call to them......
might have had sommat to do with the pics i took....
and guess whos gona all quite, not a single peep from them.
woooo party!!! no more shanty town in the back garden, no more smoke me outta m home BBQs, no more drunken late night partys, no more rubbish in any of my gardens an no more loud music to god know what time!

an back to the car....
yup done the flush an fresh oil an filter. i guess it is just one of them things thats on the "to do" list.....

Just be careful what you put up on the club site mate, you never know whos looking around these web pages. Just some advice.

That motor is looking fansatic. I admire the amoount of effort you are putting into the project. Not much up on the mechanical side of things, myself, but i keep reading these project and iam putting bits of things together.

It looks like the wireing looked like a nightmare.

[mesobitchy]

they fully know it was me that reported them.
all i did was collect evedence agenst them with the crap i had to put up with.
nothing sneeky, all above bord
wel they have behaved since then, n life is peace n quite i love it.
they still have music but its at a much more quiter levle

that wireing... heheh im not aloud to touch it, hes seen how bad my wireing is an iv been banned from doing anything with wires,
not to sure on the engine side of things , but thats cos i dont know this car well enough yet to venture in there, give it time and im sure you will find me up to my elbows in it, an me swering about the car an houw much i hate it
i think the effort im putting in this one is to wipe the slate clean with my past 10 cars, were as every car iv owned alwys seemed to go nipples north,
we got this car knowing full well it needed working on, an i think this has helped in the way of m getting down about it, stressed at the money its costing, but at the same time loving it cos i know once all the work is done, that will be it.
were as the mazda it was always, "well we fix this here it be fine, its not much" then after a while it would break again an i repeating what i said over an over again.
this time with the mitsi we got our very own rallyart trained mechenic on standby who does all the work for free an gets most the parts at trade price
okies its a 3hour drive to get to him but its bloody worth it

will keep ya all up to date as an when things take place

[mesobitchy]

okies here we have few pics.
a before and after of the boot along with the vid
now with the vid im not sure if it should have its own thread

the other pics are of the nardi steering wheel an the gear gator with the after market knob on it.
smart arse of a boyfriend came up with the idea of a spring to hold the gator in place as the gator kept falling down cos the knob was too big and to long on the shaft to keep it up, hence the use of a spring
vid is an MP4 file so couldnt upload as an attatchment.
sorry.
but here it is from photobucket.

its called "Old man rubbing one out in back of car"

[mesobitchy]

LMFAO!!! the car looks like its ACTUALLY CLEAN!!!!!

in fact....... we have had the car 3 months an its not been cleaned once!!!..
well other then t-cutting the rear quarter an its wings/bonnet.
the rest has been "nature" washed.
hows that for green!!

[mesobitchy]

New rad has just arrived
still in its box awaiting fitting now
well soon as the rain stops for long enough!

[MarkSanne]

Getting better& better!! Nice!

What were those stains and with what were they removed?

[mesobitchy]

thanks

the were oil an was removed with break cleaner an alot of rubbing

there still some water based stains in there that we got to remove, got a cleaner for it but unsure what it is as the bottle its in isnt the right one for it.

[mesobitchy]

well more goodies are on the way now should be here by the 21st
the kit consists of:

17" alloys an a K&N filter.
and if we can fit it...... some form of backbox. unsue what it is as i cant remember right now

[Turbo_Steve]

What's the plan with the Subwoofer: surely it's not just living on it's face in the sparewheel well?

[mesobitchy]

oh it is alright.
but its been secured in place with some MDF and bolts.
okies its not pratical if i should ever need to get the spare out, as it means unding 4 bolts, but its the best place for the sub
it also helps with the sound as well, were as we dont here the bass, but by god you dont half feel it!!

[MarkSanne]

Hmmm nice, makes me think about doing something similar perhaps (one day)... I'd like to see some more pics of that setup if possible!

[mesobitchy]

yum yeah i can sort something out, but what ya see is what there is realy.
nothing fancy or flash, just basic yet very effective

[mesobitchy]

woo hooo!!
rad is now fitted an so is the K&N

i get some piccys of the filter on tomorrow
dose sound nice when i put my toe down. tho the tapping.......

[Turbo_Steve]

Likewise, I am interested as I was planning something not dissimilar.

[mesobitchy]

the tapping or the toe dowing or the k&n?

[mesobitchy]
