    Right.....I didnt think I'd ever have to post this. But I'm done. Bearing or something gone in the engine. Wont make weekend realistically (unless I just drive it till it blows up, if even it will do that). And as far as I'm concerned it wont make it out with me at the wheel again. I tried my best, put everything I had in it. Its beaten me, and with that this country.

    Was slogging away in work, up at 5 or 6, home at 7 or 8. As sad as it sounds looking forward to an event or something seemed to make it worthwhile. With the car gone I dont think I can do it. I have no house to live in come tuesday. And so tbh I cant just handle the stress of it anymore, not having anywhere to store it, transport, money, not being a mechanic so having to try and chase or motivate ppl to do stuff, and at every step I tried to stay positive. After the fire I tried to laugh it off. But there comes a point where you just have to give in.

    So I'll probably break it for parts, lose maybe 7 or 8 grand and that will be my chapter of cars finished for awhile anyway. Australia is sounding like my best option....

    Thanks to everyone for the support and help along the way, and I'm sorry if I've let anyone down, it was just a bridge too far I'm afraid...

    Now that's a sad post. 10% happiness 90% hardship

    The only way forward is sideways

    I know this is probably the last thing you wanna hear but tomorrow is another day and it probably won't seem as hopeless. I know how it can feel when you can't fix one thing on the car without something else breaking and it becomes an endless cycle but at the end of it all I kinda wonder what I would be without my car, it would be like chopping off my right hand!
    The car is so cool and after all the work youve put into it give it another chance

    chin up brian... i know its hard but you took a big gamble veering away from the common as fuck s-body and imo have one of the coolest sliders in the country and as i was sayin to so many people in ennis when u get the hang of that car ya'll be a serious contender as the car is so fast comin out of the bends...

    keep the head up man and make this a winner....

    sorry to hear that brian

    my advice would be just forget about

    the car for a week or two

    hit fermoy the weekend,get wasted,have the craic

    next week get some personal stuff sorted,

    it'll all come together.

    there's loads of sound lad's on here more than willing to

    give a hand to get the car sorted

    it's surprising what a break from something can do for the head

    personally i dont like the car turbo n/a yokes just arent reliable enough for and especilay you being the first to use this one here yes you will get lots of hardship and problems but fuck it has to be done, and in reality its not worth feck all to break so just spend a fewe bob more on it and drive it on!! if problems are stil there put an sr20, look at the comments after the mondello blog post on speedhunters a bit of a heads up maybe if you havent read them
