Hey there Kids, time for another installment of gold/poo coloured levin...
Last couple of days we've done a bit more... First up I forgot to post before that AJPS helped us in our time of need and sent up some new rotors for the front express so that we could move the car out of the garage when the other lancer got back from the shop (getting the evo rear-end welded in). Anyway the story goes I go and get the old rotors machined and when i come to pick them up the nasty old brake man doesn't let me have them because they were already well below the legal limit... (whoops) anyway heres a pic of the sexy looking new ones in place...

So yea, thanks AJPS for your prompt delevery of the required parts!
anyway back to the present...
THE ENGINE IS IN!
We put it back in on sunday but yesterday we had to play with it more in order to get the heater pipes not completely crimped...
But anyway hopefully it will not have to move again *fingers crossed*
here is a pic of it on sunday after being put in...

Thats with all the wires and crap all over it...

BTW we also painted the underside of the bonnet from that horrrible stock metallic brown to black as well as pictured below

So now onto the wiring and the replacement of the interior, then with a bit of luck the next big adventure... driving it on the road legally!
best bit is i never have to do it again!
I was hoping to have taken the car with me on that trip but sometimes these things are unavoidable...
