Took my fucking

Time.
So is it working yet? What a silly question of course it's not
But i'll give you a brief run down (it won't be) of what has been done/what hasn't been done.
- Went to ECE, learnt Craig was a king amongst dudes, got everything done in a week (it was a lot to do) exceeded my expectations. Will pay to get more cool shit done because......well he impressed the shit out of me, kept me updated at every step and didn't return my car to me as a hacked up piece of shit (like the last place when my first sil went 1j eons ago). I pulled that car down cause of it and never finished that car....recurring theme.
- Got held up (again) by a joint that has now lost my business to another workshop that doesn't specialise in 1uz gear. So far they actually want to talk to me for more than 5 seconds on the phone and don't suck ass at returning phone calls or returning emails before the apocalypse (i would like to finish it 5 minutes before shit hits the fan). This is helpful as i'm at the stage of lining up somewhere to wire in my ecu and dyno it so as you can imagine i'm that annoying dude who asks a bajillion questions before i book anything in.
- Bitched and moaned out the ass about it after months of it just sitting there and having to pull the 1u out - gearbox and all to weld the bay up and paint it (i'm at filler stage now). This was actually my fault to begin with so i only have myself to blame......but i'll probably moan about it more later cause i can.
- Nearly sold it all for the second time.....but too many dude's who raised interest in the EOI i had put up just wanted to run it into the ground at Matsuri - this i could not allow. At the same time as putting the EOI i looked at a 180 that had quite the drag rep back in the day, unfortunately TIME has not been kind to it and hasn't been run in quite some time and would require a bit of work to get it to the same stage mine is currently at.
