The doors will unlock with the dash switch though. Also I think the radio doesnt work. Is this uch related? Can you reprogram it in clip? I saw there was a reset feature along the lines but Im hesitant as dont know what it will do.
Just checked and car does start, ran it for less than second though because j&r driveshaft touching block and n/s is out of hub, but it did and light extinguished.. Ill sort out both and run longer in a sec
Just fitted new dash loom and all was well, warning/handbrake light was extinguishing. Was getting ready to put dash back in but light is always on now, plugged into clip and its a bad earth. They all look fine and secured, check the others in engine bay just to make sure but fine. Was fitting...
Will need grinding down
Set at full camber so should be around -1 without top mounts or damper top bolts changed, when I get it aligned ill go for 1.6 or more, its used on road so need to be fairly considerate ?

Door looms fitted so locks and windows work now, well the doors lock but dont unlock which has been for a while think the uch needs sortin'

Id take the upright, disc, bracket and caliper into wherever you will machine them and take off whatever amount you need to make sure the pads arnt missing the outer edge of the disc. Taking 5mm off a 300mm bracket and the calipers might be okay but wouldnt on the brackets I have
Started on the wishbones a couple days ago, pms strengthening plates and powerflex camber adjustable bushes!

Following! Will be nice to see those brakes setup, a pedal box would complete it though ?
And I hope things get better with your family, all the best ?
Damn they look slick! I had a look at that site and they do coil overs as well, was a bit skeptical though as they seem to be able supply kits for loads of cars, do they test their kits on them all or just hope that the sizes/specs are right?
Loom in but have had to order door looms and centre console as different connections!
Some goodies have arrived ;)
As space is limited ive had to order the smallest one I could find which was this ap racing one, as the clutch and rear brake mcs are super close to the column. The bigger...
Are you still looking at uprating the front brakes? Ive only just learnt about them recently but have you thought about residual pressure valves. I always have pad knockback in my brembos and wondered how much the valves would help
@bloke got given the compound that needs at least 300F before they start to work. You should of kept braking you would of been sent into orbit shortly after!
Tomorrow will finish up the job with the matrix and loom. Just needs the cup alternator setup now!
Also been trying to mock up the pedal box and it will work its just mega tight, Ive had to order a couple of master cylinders that are a small body to clear the column. Ordered some aluminium L...
Have done loads today and a few little jobs in the last week, decided to bin the aircon and a full 172 cup setup was ordered which arrived today so got to work and am pleased with how much I managed to do, was having fun for once as things were going smoothly! Getting the loom out was a bit crap...
