I can't remember my last time i wrote anything about my car.. but.. Recent Work / Additions / Plans

 

Bought some Goodridge braided lines... but still yet to find Dogbones so they will go on only after that.

I Fixed a leaking fuel hose this weekend.. explains why i smelt fuel :P

Fitted all the STi Pedals, not sure i like them though.. bit slippery and my shoes catch on them :(

Fitted the GTB Limited Trim - Looks nice i think
She's going SnowSpec again for the winter so back on the 16's and Racks will be fitted again - just gotta get new 16in rubber

I really still need a tune, this weekend it was running a bit too much boost (constantly hitting 1.4Bar so i think its time to ditch the Stock BCS and upgrade to Grimspeed and get a Tune)

Roof Lining... ahahahahahaha yeah right

I want to pick up a new Deuchworks, the Walbro sits too high up and i get bad surging under half a tank :(

 

Thinking of modifying a Auto Select switch for my Big Spots, It's one of the only OEM switches i know that has dual pole switch with a centre off..
So High, Low and Off.. i just need to find a way to change the Label on the switch or make it look better..

 

Thats' about all i can think of right now...
Spent too much time fixing a bloody RSK TT lately :P

I like the part where the headliner pretends to be put on the list of "things to do". It's been two years since I went on HVC and I distinctively remember rolling around in the back seat of the RS trying to find a rattle in the roof after a few beers lelel

So there was more than just a conversion going on at your house m8?


Anyway, torqued to spec is just the manuals way of saying 'we couldn't get it any tighter, see if you can'.

This week will be busy busy! Parts arrive from the Arabs tomorrow, and i have until Saturday to get it done before the Lady is back.

when i do this then the Braided Goodridge lines will go on

After seeing so many people painting things in the engine bay, I think I might have to do some on mine. Mines looking decidedly old after seeing everyone else's. A fresh lick of paint will hopefully fix that. Looking good Ty.

MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. To be stripped and scrapped in time.
