Right so I'm currently waiting on:
Brakes from George:
-Front Brembo HC Discs
-Front Ferodo DS2500's
-Rear Brembo OEM Discs (with bearings,abs rings and the spacers)
-Rear Brembo OEM Pads
-Ate Superblue Brake Fluid
Exhaust from Dan:
-Ktec Stealth (looks to be none resonated)
Oil from...
So far today I've ordered my brakes from George and yesterday I put up a wanted thread for an exhaust as mine is beyond repair. Dan from SJM got in touch so I've bought that off him.
Going to have to trim down my order of bits for servicing and do some next month though.
I've just changed my policy over to my 172 (with elephant but it's the same company) and my renewal is due in a few weeks, she told me the new renewal for the 172 over the phone and it's £600 cheaper than it was from a new quote online, and they were the cheapest.
Anyone else been forced onto the new Flickr view and unable to find the usual BB code? It is s**t when there is no title shown at the bottom etc. Linking photo's from Flickr looks s**t.
FPSML at "minus the roof".
And dunno, I'm not too bothered by the paint tbh, I don't like that it really needs a DA running over it but stone chip wise I'll just touch them up (ooo errrr). And yeah fingers crossed for that, it's always seemed weird not seeing you in a red car.
So tomorrow I get to order all my bits and pieces to get the car mechanically at a stage where I'm happy. So thought today I'd double check that it was the brakes that just needed bleeding causing my spongey pedal and nothing too sinister. No pictures of that but then I realised that the...
Mine is currently doing this. It's less lump and more it bogs like it's a misfire. Off to pick up some plugs in the morning (NGK PFR6E- 10) and will post in here if it cures it. I'm almost certain it's an injector though so we shall see. Plugs needed changing anyway so might as well do them.
Been eyeing up what I want to order for the car. I've come up with the below list. I know a lot of it isn't really necessary but I want to do it the right way round, get the car tidy and mechanically spot on, and then start with mods.
My list so far is as follows:
Brakes
Front Brembo HC...
Yeah I know how to change a dogbone LOL. I've got a spare one which I'm debating poly bushing but I might stick it on for now and poly bush the current one at a later date.
LOL! Cheers for that, and nah, I am completely skint this month. Wasn't meant to be buying one till payday so I'm really stretched. I've done the belts purely because I didn't want to drive it without them done and the PAS needed doing so it made sense.
Bit of a slow one at work today so got a list together of things I want to do/purchase next month:
Jobs to do. by welshname, on Flickr
Pretty long list but it'll be worth while I think.
That was one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. I'd been saying all along that the PAS was the thing I was most worried about being okay and then at the most tense moment imaginable...VOLCANO!
Was putting the car back together today after Jon had left and saw what looked like a "G"...
