I asked my tester about the changes and he said the only thing that was Definatley changing was they have to test caravan tow bar electrics.
Did you car come with headlamp washers as if not that shouldn't effect the mot, as for the airbag I thought it was just the light on that would be a fail? It's all very confusing :wonder: |
Aircon pump and pipework is now out, what a pig of a job to get to the 2 bottom bolts:eek:
Aircon rad will be removed when I do the silicon hoses (again) as I won't need to drain the coolant twice - might look at a nice alloy rad too:norty: At least I can start doing some cleaning under the bonnet while I gather all the bits I need for the stage 2 build (and save for some brakes:D) |

Also have a new exhaust sat in the garage that will go on once some new heat wrap arrives and I get it all ready to fit - fitting party anyone:D

Didn't see the roof lining though but it does look good. Oh and the exhaust.... Awesome :thumb: |
Thanks again for the mesh and the manuals :thumb:
Will leave you feedback for the mash when I get a chance. |

Love that roof lining :)

Scoobs looking great Jon,
I had my roof lining done in red alcantra about 5yrs ago and it only lasted a year before the glue started to peel away and I had it done by a professional tailor thingy person! lol redone it in black foam backed material and its lasted better. I would have heavier material sawn into the headlining to make it hold better. Top job and completely changes the interior. Top scoob contest for you now Jon :0) Ricey |

Some of the new exhaust, a TSL Pulse extraction system complete with sport cat courtesy of PMB Performance - £250 bargain in my book. It's a 3" system with the bell mouth downpipe (so the original design) with a straight centre section. Quieter than the blitz and much less boomy in t the cabin so easier to live with day to day (I might be getting old, although I love the noise of the blitz)...

No worries Ash, probably leave it until the weather gets better:thumb:

Those's pic's look fookin awesome Jon!!

First proper clean since it came back, ran out of car shampoo so treated myself to a big bottle of autoglym:D
Wheels need some proper work as the road crap is starting to stick already, although I reckon some bigger brakes will hide the crap:norty: Anyone want to donate £1500 to the cause:eek: |
My speedo has stopped working and I've picked up a set of late Blob WRX dials assuming that they where a straight swap - best bit being that the blob dials only had about 6000 more miles that my current bug set.
It is becoming clear that this may not be a straight swap; can anyone shed any light on whether these should be plug'n'play as I am getting the following issues with them:- Speedo 'zeroes' at 25mph Rev counter over reads idles at approx 2500rpm ABS light stays on Handbrake warning light stays on Temp gauge reads in the red on start-up from cold I have no issues with re-wiring if it is as simple as that or should I sell these on and get some more bug one - these look so much better:cry: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...6/IMG_0093.jpg Thanks in advance Jon |
