Well bought the car with no MOT and no TAX
A Track rod end, handbrake cable and two new rear discs later she had a years mot, amd a hundred odd quid later she bad 6 months tax!
Bought a straight through and stupidly believed the fella when he said it came.off a hdi.
Gullable old me eh! Got really pissed off with the pipe when fitting as it didn't hang right after me having to cut the flange off my standard hdi flange and weld it on, AS WELL as breaking an exhaust stud!
Ordered a new kit, £18 including vat from pug! STEEP
So after driving round with it blowing out for a few days i thought screw it im making my own from scratch! I then decided to make it with 2.25 mandrel bends which I had from my mg zr diesel midpipe! Handy
Notice no crushes there! Got an 8ft length of 2.25 aswell to help me out!
Fiddled about with the welder (which I need a lot more practise with but im getting there!) and ended up with this...
Have to finish the rear exit which I want to mark up on the car as well as the downpipe/flange assembly! Hopefully have them done in the next day or two
Picked up a really clean set of 076 injectors as the noise from mine is driving me mad!
Then next up is a service, which will be done in the next few days;
And the car as it stands now! Need a.good day polishing at it as the last time when I clayed it etc it was a rush!
