well today was a big day but more on that in a min!
while I was off work, and the weather has been mint, I decided to move the metro again, and sort out the rear end once and for all, so that I can put my bits back in place,.
I pulled the spare wheel out and other odds and sods, so that I can refit my U hangers for the hydrocans and rear subframe, so that has finally put that to bed now!
these were off the gta
Also my new brown sensor that the ecu sees and controls the mpi system.
fitted that in place,
fired the car up and it made a massive difference, no smoke out the exhaust at all, after a few starts, as the ecu can see what is going on, the old one was rusted to hell!
so the ecu most have been barely seeing what the crack is!
next up was the final stage in the brakes, and the new upgrade, that the gta was going to get, now the new sleeper has got.
the old ones
new ones in place
now I have cabled tied them in place, close to where it the oem ones where bolted
so after that, it as a case of checking all was ok under each wheel, and we bled the brakes, need another bleed, but it stops!
Also the massive piece of news today, is!!!
IT HAD ITS 1ST RUN TODAY!!!!! DDDDDDDDDD
mad thing is it drives better than my gta :blink:
so I am well lit up about today!! just a few things to sort out now, and that's it!
A street sleeper is reborn is so close of been born!
