Im going to go shoot the postman in the face.










The naughty postman never came to my house, we always get atleast 4 or 5 letters to the house minimum, im sure he just didn't bother as he has done quite alot.

Sounds like you have a lot on your plate, good luck :) Hope you get it all together soon.


Thanks for the support, you seem to be the only one who reads this at the moment.

>_<


I read it! Your Mini is seriously one of the nicest on the forum (no offence to everyone elses) but theres just something about it I really like!

Question, how do you run 2 amps? because theres only one set of red and white RCA plugs on headunits..?

Cheers

Your not joking, I got up ealier than usual to catch the postman and then sat in my kitchen watching daytime tv for 2 hours waiting for him. Going to do the same again tomorrow, if it doesn't come tomorrow its unlikely that its going to get back on the road in time.

Just PM'd Kel now.
Theres still a tiny chance I can get it done. If it arrives tomorrow I can build the 1380 tomorrow in the day(taking my time to do it right) Put the 1380 in the mini tomorrow night. Get it running the day after, book it in for an MOT. Thats if all goes smoothly.

Im not booking an MOT if I havnt got the piston ring.

Ok no piston ring today. Project is now over.
There is no way I can do it in time so now I can't have my car back with me in uni which is vital for me.
Just spoke to Mini_kel and it was posted on monday after I paid him on the 22nd. Im now in uni until easter without my car and have lost my garage space so im going to have to move my car and leave it on the road. I'm truely gutted.

Crappy. Why did he post it so late, anyway to come back on a weekend and get it finished up or find a garage closer to Uni or something?

No I have no way of moving the car, I could come home on one or 2 weekends but it's a little in practical for me. But im determined to get it sorted, so I will.
Anyway chin up and all that, Happy new year everyone. Im going to redo my speaker board today for under my back seats, as my old one was just a piece of MDF board. Im going to assume my piston ring is going to arrive tomorrow but who knows.
