What pressure do these run at do you know? From what I've researched people modifiy the orginal lines so I figured this would do the same job just neater! Any input from people who have used this pump would be much appreciated!

I know Jase your telling me

I tried what you have done and kept coming off . Had to get a custom line done at pirtek which was pricey. I've taken it off now as run a non PS rack now you can have it for £20 delivered it cost me nearly 100. Pm me if interested and get get photos for ya

As always progress is slow! I really need to find time to finish this and start enjoying it!

I still need to find a seal for the transfer box, I'll fire the size up tomorrow if anyone can help out? Once thats fitted both driveshafts can go in along side the new ball joints and track rod ends that have been fitted. I also purchased some Hel braided front lines so I'll get them on too.

In the mean time i started sorting out the wiring and refitting the blower motor. I also managed to get some more sound deadening on the bulkhead!

I tided up and secured the loom running all the wiring for the gauges, boost controller and turbo timer to the centre consol ready for them to be fitted.

Welcome along another 4paw 😂 The difference being this one drives! Nothing special though and an auto unfortunately but I got it mega cheap and thought it'd be a good daily for the winter

First thing was to ditch the steel & alloy wheel combo and stick my old dare wheels on, not looking much better I know but a vast improvement over the budget 165s on the front 😂 Prada spec 2 now.

The car felt dangerous on the motorway for a few reasons... the steering rack was leaking quite badly and both track rod ends had seen better days giving a lot of free play in the steering wheel, the steel wheels made it 10x worse too!

Got hold of a good condition steering rack and added new track rod ends as I had over ordered on my other 4paw. I've not changed a rack myself and felt it was made especially difficult being an auto 4paw! I ended up removing the o/s driveshaft and tilted the engine to get enough room to wiggle it out... How have other people changed there's? Followed up by doing the alignment the car felt completely different! Much tighter steering and more settled at high speed.

Changed a couple of little bits as well which was bugging me, led numberplate bulbs which flickered whilst you drove! Blue side light bulbs, god knows why 😕 new 6k hid bulbs and a new rear plate.

Tbh I'm not too sure what the plan is, using it as the new daily atm. Need to get the black one finished really then I'll prob keep this for spares 😝 The engine bay is a joke on this so I'll try to get you some pics for your entertainment tomorrow 😂

It also got a quick polish which bought the white back to life!

Im lost for words... any update 😁

Thanks mate! I've been doing bits here and there but nothing worthy of an update. Driveshafts are in finally and a few other things have been changed around. Now in the process of plumbing in the oil pressure gauge, cranking over to get good pressure then start her up and set fpr etc
