Decide that it was about time i started to do some work to the car, borrowed a boost gauge from a friend at uni and pikey bodged it into place.. like so...
Turns out its boosting a nice 1.5 bar or 21psi, fueling could be slightly played with but as it stands theres very little smoke and a good pull on throttle.
Finally got a set of centre caps for the speedlines...
soon got sanded back
Then let the girlfriend loose with a spray can..
(wheel needs a refurb)
Concidering its her first time spraying anything i think shes done an excelent job!
Also got cracking on the boost gauge holder, got a converted vent holder from the scrappy for free a week or so ago, sadly no picture of it before it was sprayed but it was a manky dirty white with chips in it
Anyway let the Girlfriend loose on that aswell, seeming as shed done a good job with the center caps...
While she was busy doing that i was attempting to swap a bumper on a mates picasso just to find out the one extension i needed id snapped -_-
Anyway then got onto re-doing the front badge as it was a little chipped, origionally was going to do it all black again but girlfriend suggested something diffrent ...
So she did the hard part because i CBA
got her to mask all around the lion so i could do this...
Sorry for crap pics, we decided to go and get some food instead of finishing them off till after....
Bought the Girlfriend this for being a trooper
Litterally huge vanilla slice .... I ate half because im top
Also found some parts i bought months and months ago... anyone able to tell me wether this is a Dtub or HDI clutch, i bought it and it was advertised as a Dtub clutch but when my mate went to fit it he said it was diffrent to the one needed??
Will be refitting interior and giving it a good clean over and service before i take it to Santa pod in 2 weeks
