Well I got the 10mm fuel lines done, even priming them they feel like they move a fuckton of fuel so thats a good start. Not been for a test drive as I drained my battery yesterday evening and so she is now charging. (was trying to make her start not realising my glow plug wiring had died).

Got both wishbones fitted with Partner 800 P-bushes and fitted the drivers side one which wasn't too bad a job.

Sadly found out one of the rubber blanks on my rad had split and there wasn't alot of water in there so made a blank and re piped one of the bodges on another hose to get a bit better flow. Sadly didn't manage the passenger wishbone due to having to mend the above. Still not bad for about 3 hours.

Well mine is now ready for mapping with exception of fitting my wideband. Controller and what not is fitted so literally just need to bolt it into the exhaust.
Tomorrow will be fitting that and then weather permitting, giving it a good wash and wax so that it just needs a quick once over after mapping on thursday!

I've still not fitted my passenger bucket seat but I have got it to hold a steady idle and found the cause of some of my power issues, a blocked air filter.

Need to get a sieve and a funnel and make some sort of guard for the turbo. Only needs to last till the end of the summer and I'll get the VNT on.

Its about time to start getting beer!

Mispriced in tesco, says 2 cases for £14, it came up as £18 on the self serve so my mate asked for help, the guy then typed one in as £2 and the other one in as £12, somehow it managed to give him them both for £8 haha!

So 15 cans of strongbow & 12 cans of carlsberg export for £8.

Unfortunately the guy on my self serve put it through different and it came up as £14.

But all in 54 cans for £22 Smile pleased with that haha

No more spinning off Smile or if you do you can't blame the tyres lol

What brakes are you fitting ? Hope get enough miles in them before track so you can bed them in.
