And how silver the wheels are

Every time I've seen that car since the wheels have been like a coal miners arsecrack

I didn't think they could come up that clean????

As an upstanding member of society, i decided to have a 400 cell sports cat section made up. I'm told this will pass an MOT, and isn't for track use only 👺👹

I was also wanted to be able to easily swap over my exhaust from cat to decat (when in Mexico 👁👄👁) so had a vband flange welded in to replace the existing slip joint on the milltek system.

Took the car to Powerflow Halifax and James did a fantastic job for a reasonable price. Some pics below of before and after. Can see the original vband flange I had done at CSK on the decat to manifold joint;

What was forgotten was a boss for the lambda, so he took the cat back and will weld this in for me. I read to fresh air currently but would rather not have an EML lit up.

Hopefully a cat thief will be able to tell this isn't genuine and will rob the cat off the nearest jazz instead.

Got round to redoing my gearbox oil today as the comma was just awful after a 100 miles. Had to be careful putting into gear as it just crunched.

Got 2 more litres of gearbox oil, genuine elf stuff to go with my litre left over from before! Frustratingly I never said to @George@RTR_Parts that I had a litre NFJ and I was sent NFP. Quick message to George who put my mind at ease that they would be OK as both suitable for J type gearboxes.

Can always rely on his help even late on a Saturday! Dont get this sort of service elsewhere, cheers again George!

Also finally changed my CV boot as my passenger side has a slight split in it. Thought it was good timing with the box drained in case I managed to pop it out but it all went as planned!

Just a stretchy J&R boot with one of the ribs cut off so it doesn't rub on itself as this causes premature failure. Jubilee clips are the best for boots.

And a picture of my mileage for reference.
