im hoping i have some people coming to help me... the dash is completely out... managed to trace wires and found other connections the alarm company made that are shocking!!

spoke to the alarm company today... and guess what... they claim it wouldnt of been them... even when i said i never got a cat 1 cert the guys reply was... bit late now... absolutely useless!

car actually looks like a complete mess inside atm, no dash, no seats, just a s**t load of wires lol :( will see what tomorrow brings.

ha ha gonna have to wait guys, cant upload it :p

had a big OH s**t moment, it started making 1 hell of a clatter when running!

found out i havent pushed the release bearing in to the clutch, and the clutch slave has no fluid in it (replaced the line with a braided line) so the rattle was the clutch fork and bearing rattling around :)

vid will be up tomorrow :) its loud and as i said it braps lol neighbours were all stood watching lol, where i put s**t loads of oil in the housings to stop it getting dry it has made its own smoke screen!! the whole street was full of smoke and all you could hear was BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP :D took the air fliter off for a cheeky look at the turbo and it just sits there spinning happily lol :)

Smoke will go after 20-30 miles I guess prob less... As for plans just a street car really maybe occasional drag use drift isn't really that possible as the lock on rx7's is rubbish it's going to have an easy life :)
