sunday I am going to remove all engine bay components so I can sand down and prep the bay for paint I not going mental with the buy just giving it a freshen up.



I will then be stripping down the engine look and removing all wires that are not used any more ie abs idle control for ac as removed bla bla bla.

I noticed that when I put them on for test fit there a few little weak points but going to reinforce them at some point as the whole car being peeped for respray. So will discuss with my sprayer

they will crack and you'll get holes on the inner arch part lol mine have been sprayed recently and it's all come off in the wheel arch will just black hammerite them bits soon :)

So today I was prepping my door seals / kick plates and noticed a blow in

The paint started to sand it down and found it was rust sanded it more to bear metal and it revealed a small 2 cm hole in the top seal. I was pissed off as a understatement how ever after going over the car and found no more rust so going to repair the hole. I also got on order some airasole wax and rust treatment to spray inside the seals through the clip holes.

this little car keeps throwing up little things starting to get to me now :(

well not much of a update really but I sold my ss manifold kit just before xmas as I have decided to go for a top mount kit from wepr racing once funds allow.



I had hardly spent time working on the motor since it been at its new home due to having to source parts ie stupid little bolts and stuff that my sprayer had misplaced when he stripped the motor etc. so I have had to go through every thing to see what I am missing etc.



I really am at a cross roads atm I don't no weather to carry one or just sell all the parts I have and just sit on the money.



with the parts I have stocked and ready is in the value of over 7000 pounds however getting people to buy the parts at the sell on price is the hard part.



to finish the car to my spec including map is 2500 that will include new wms 4 pot kit ,full map of my ecu and the rest of my handling package and other little bits and pieces.
