well nobody knows what life has in store for them...but no plans at all to sell it!! Like I was saying at in the first post I've been after one for a while

LOADS from me lol

Much fappage.

 

[jamesc]

Ready for the rolling road tomorrow....mademoiselle was treated to a few bits & pieces...

B9EFS plugs (gap set at 0.5 mm)
Dizzy cap & rotor arm
Plug/coil leads



Shot of a confusing moment with the leads, laptop is there to show the user manual soft copy...usefully having a picture of the distributor with correct routing!!

sex wee!

Amen brother.

 

[jamesc]

Sex wee...I had to google that, must be getting old))

Some snaps! Just a couple from the dyno day...I know they posted elsewhere but this thread is the the history of the car (during my ownership anyway) & these were my favourites showing car & forum members also





And some cleaning after. Guess the colour of the car...is it green, purple or blue

 

[jamesc]

I got access to a lift for checking underneath....forgot to change air filter for a while, now done.



Filter lives here, btw


Mecaparts filter, part #MP0820, is on the right. Some awful thing from the many miles ago is on the left...


Somebody been offroading..?


Box & exhaust


Fuel filter I think, reminder to change...

 

[jamesc]

Not much to update, still rolling, booked in for a proper clean later in the year (detail I think the cool kids call it). Been real busy at work lashing things up with literally cable ties & jubilee clips, making the fat cats even richer

On the school run...


Are parking spaces getting bigger..?


Still haven't thrown away the fluffy dice, as you can see. So tonight I'm gonna party like it's nineteen eighty-nine!

That's the bairn's...honest! (mine is the barbie - she's out of shot as she needs a rinse)

 

[DaveL485]

she needs a rinse

I don't even wanna ask....

 

[jamesc]

MOT is coming! Waxoyl time!

First small step towards EFI....flange for inlet manifold

I knew you would!

Might be a while before I get it sorted but making a start

Can't decide whether to keep the original intercooler or try and get a charge cooler in there. All the kits look expensive and/or too large bore, like this one:

4" bore seem massive?? If anyone has any suggestions would be much appreciated

I wonder if @Myd could assist ?

Here we go, this is more my budget.....http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Barrel-in...633?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4d33300449

Still 4" inlet & outlet though

//edit hold on I'm talking out of my arse

the 4" x 6" AVT charge cooler has an inlet/outlet diameter of 57 mm....the 4" must be diameter of the core. Still pricey though or is it a case of you gets what you pay for

 

[DaveL485]

Personally i'd make up my own and just buy the CC unit. Bit of pipework, an electric Bosch pump, a motorbike rad some wiring with a relay and you're done.

 

[andybond]

Charge coolers have always been expensive ! No idea why though ..
