Looking good Brun. Whens it ready?

 

[BRUN]

i reckon in about 10 days or so

Andy is workin hard on it but the suspension wont be ready until the weekend or possibly Monday (GAZ coilovers)

 

[Andy GDI]

the subframe was pretty rusty... its now got a nice coat of zinc paint on it to look after it..

 

[rt172]

Are you going to have to run it in first? Reckon youll be able to put it on the rollers at the RE RR day?

 

[BRUN]

it will definitely need running in, new pistons/liners/rings etc...

it wont be going anywhere near a RR until ive got a fair few miles on it

ill come along tho to any NW organised events....i just wont be running it...

 

[Andy GDI]

will need 500 gentle miles then a bit more then we can open her up for a blast... should see good power even with standard turbo and intercooler.

[weight]

nice!

gonna do that trick to my brake reservoir, they wobble round like no ones business!

brand new wishbones, then polly bushed! does it make a diff, as i have never used polly bushes before??

Just replaced the whole wishbones for OE on mine.

cant wait for part 3!!

good luck fitting the roll bar to wishbone bushes, what a job!!

 

[BRUN]

well the engines out mate so it shouldnt be THAT much of a problem

 

[Andy GDI]

few crow bars and trolly jacks ..... no problem
