Finance isn't a problem as long as you get written proof from the company they won't repossess the car should payments not be made, been there and done that. The whole £3500 "small bump" was a much bigger issue!

LOL, Ok dude.

Made some more progress today, not far off being back on the road, just waiting on a few bits to come through the post. So I started off by dropping the washer bottle, shearing just about every bolt with a little twist of a 1/4" drive in the process... It was then time to tidy up the...

Sell your tin can and get one then! Phil Morrison came bloody close to that spinning 3 series at around 2 minutes in!

Fair old lump too airbags, you don't realise how much crap there is just to inflate it.

Chuff! Airbag appears to have an issue though.

You should be able to tighten more than 60nm with a decent ratchet lol, yet alone torque-ing it.

They must have done them stupidly hot to weaken them. I've abused wheels through pot holes etc that have been powdercoated more than once, and they've never failed on me.

I do love Bozo oil coolers.

No worries anyway, might actually get my finger out tomorrow and make some more progress.

Ah cool, I was wanting to get the car running this weekend. But then couldn't be arsed the last 2 nights to actually do anything, so it won't be running!

Sod it, just got a used thrown in with an adjustable actuator I was buying on SXOC.

Surely I need the adaptor to start with?

Where the hell are they £40!? Can't find them for anywhere near that for an SR20. For a Z32 maybe? £140 - Temple Tuning £184 - Horsham Developments £180 - Apex Performance The HKS only cost me £40, including getting a spanking element for it.

The turbo's done 90K and is probably shagged anyway, so sod it for now, not forking out for an Apexi yet. If the turbo dies then so be it.

Black FMICs are the way forwards ;)

True, I'm waiting for mine to go, don't really like it so when it cracks I'll replace it.

Oh sheeeeiiit. What manifold is it? Ta Chris (both).

A bit more forwards progress. Sorted out a couple of sheared bolts, then started to knock up a proper battery clamp. Using a bit of old 5mm mild steel and some 3/8" Whitworth Stud Bar, I conjured up the following. One hole sorted... Bar shortened... Second bar in and marking out hole for...

Pm'd him, and he's had a $150 offer on honda tech apparently. He's told me the listing is going to continue, so guess I won't be getting them if people are going to bid that high.

Not quite, but it's raped through a clutch and flywheel in 20K, and had to have the gearbox rebuilt.

Not wrong there, my friend's TDI Ibiza has upset many. Then again, it's upset Evos and Scoobs too with it's 240bhp but more importantly, 400lbft of Torque.

You've improved that vastly since the before pic. Great stuff dude.

You f**king legend, I've PM'd him.

You're a sick puppy Malice! Very pleased with my progress today, especially as I woke up rough as hell! Firstly, N/S wing back on... Then over to the other side, to tuck the loom best I could and put that wing back on... Next was to fit the horns, which I relocated behind the panel they...

I'd just swap the mods.

Oh well that's OK then.

Only a mere 8".

Think I'm going to just do them in a nice silver TBH Chris, want to keep it subtle. Just need to get it back together so I can pop over to leeds and get them done/put the new tyres on (stretch is involved, but I get the feeling I may have gone a bit OTT for the fronts at 195/40!)
