Right guys been a moment since I got near the car as I've had some ones else's to work on, but although I've had it running due to the snoke just pouring out and running like. Nails obv the pump and can was a tooth out.....epic fail.
so I lent out my locking tools to lock the crank in tdc with out dropping the starter so I used an Allen key that was big enough and when I put the belt on the cam and pump were a tooth out ah well no big deal so I pulled the motor as there was a lot of things I was unhappy with due to the overal tidyness of the bay. So out retimed it cut a few things about wheyyy happy days she's in running 100% like a dream and doesn't fowl anywhere at all now.
So that's the cooler on also only a small one untill the twinpass turns up in a few weeks. But today it was so far and after slapping the engine rad slam panel and all that shit in the front bumper and that can wait till tomorrow then can go for a drive.
So I had to clock the turbo again to get the boost pipes in and now the actuator needs a bit of adjusting as its somewhat on the piss no biggy. That's tomorrows job. .
When the motor was out I seen my time to order some original turbo gaskets also to stop any little keajs as we all know a blowing exhaust sounds hurre Dou's ? so that's sorted.
I also started on the inside of the car all my old set up out wiring things in tidy now and I gotta do the relocation of the battery. So I bought some jump leads of eBay for 15 notes and there nice thick cable and 3m of it So that's what I'm gonna use call it a lash or what ever but if it'd tidy and it works who honestly cares? I don't.
Just a small update but tomorrow maybe its first tmdrive up the road gotta do gearbox oil bonnet pins remove the light pod and fit the front bumper and the down pipe job well done.
Ok I think that's it for this update
