I stayed on after work the other night and i took the standard air box off as it pointless having it on now i fitted the KnN. So while i had the bumper off i also popped the horn off the sigma S16 on as it is alot louder than the 1 that was on. So i know got a horn that im not embarrassed to press. All S16s have the air horn as standard i guess?

Changed the oil as well after seeing water in the breather pipes the other day so i run the engine up with a flush and then put a few litres of oil through to try and clean it out a bit

I fort that I was doing well with this 1 behaving itself but now the idle control valve is playing up again. I have cleaned all the pipe out and have tried to clean the idle control valve out but it still ain't right so I think I will have to put another 1 on which is a bit of a pain as it doesn't like that much fun to do.

Also the central locking its playing up. The passenger side door motor seem to sound a bit lazy so I think I will have to change that as well.

It looks like this is the car I will bring to FCS this year though

Well the plan was to take this off the road on Sunday but tonight on the way home the heater matrix pipe decided to split. So I got it back down to work and I cant really be bothered to fix it for the sake of 1 more day. Will get round to fixing it some time but I need to decide what the plan is going to be for this car

Don't think I will sell it. Just don't know what to do. I got another engine that come out the sigma S16 which I was thinking about doing some head work on to see about getting a bit more power but I will get the D turbo on the road and see how it goes.

I did see you had some but to be honest im not really after any

So this had been sat up for over a month with the heater matrix pipe blown so on Sunday I for it was about time I sorted it. I got a pipe off the sigma S16 I had which I think had a new pipe fitted to it not that long ago so that was ideal. Got the pipe changed with not to much hassle.

Some pics of the blown pipe

So I think the next plan is to get it stored some where dry for over the winter

So as I have said in the D turbo project thread my plan is to take the D turbo off the rad and put this back on. I got the car in the garage last night to have a check over it as it has been sat up for about 4 months. All was pretty good till I have a better look at the chassis leg/rail bits. I knew that they weren't 'perfect' but I gave them a tap with a little hammer and....

I discover a hole. Went down to work this morning to sort a few bits out and have a look at sorting the hole. I was cleaning it up and getting all the under seal odd and discovered another hole. So dropped the sub frame down so I could have a better look and get to it easier.

Got the fuel pipes all cable tied out the way and gave it all a better clean up

[Image: BD9D2D1D-4D3A-4EAC-9368-88F7EC00732A_zpsyqrdi53h.jpg]

I managed to get my mate to come down to work to give me a hand weld it up. I can weld but it tends to look like bird sh*t and I wanted it to be done fairly tidy. So I made up the patches and he welded them on.

I gave it a cover with sticky flex and then under sealed it So it looks a fair bit better now

Other than sorting that it doesn't really need anything to get it on the road. I Will be putting the lasers back on as they all have good tyres. I just need to ring up to sort the insurance and then tax it and will be all good to go
