But t more progress on this. It’s all back in one piece nearly. First job was to get the suspension back on. Which all went back on pretty easy and an hour or so of adjustment and the ride heigh my was set. Just need to see how far the tracking is out when it back on the road. Next job was to get it running. Had a few issues and niggles getting it started. Sticky starter motors full of gunk and w dead battery. But eventually I got it started. The main problem being i suspected it is it’s massively over fuelling. so I cracked on with swapping the standard lambda out and getting -
Looking at this for a club stand for one of the former organisers of JAE. Yakushi is a show born from one man’s passion for Japanese cars and the community that it brings. Nigel has been running events since 2009 and during that time gained a wealth of knowledge for what clubs want. Yakushi aims to do just that, give the Japanese Enthusiast community a show for them; to bring people together and enjoy company with like minded people. Unlike most shows, Yakushi is a 3 day festival event which is entirely about the Japanese car scene in the UK. There are no tricks, no gimmicks, no hi

Had a few issues with the work being done to that so it’s going elsewhere once it back running. Fresh lick of paint on the intercooler as it was lo -

A quick fore updates to prove it still lives on. Coilover refresh and rebuild. These had been on 8 years and the rusty rear arches had corroded the top mounts. But on the down side the standard shielded bearings hadn’t fared to well so these have been replaced with sealed units. The springs have had a lick of paint and 2 new replacement locking collars were orders the anodised ones to replace the front steel locking collars as these were the only ones I had issues removing. A quick lick of paint on the rear top mounts made the best of a bad situation.
