Coming along nicely very nice car Bro!! Keep Up The Good Work Thanks guys! Here's some pics since I gave her a wash & polish today. I had to use my phone camera because my sister's nicked off with mine lol..and I couldn't take it off the drive for better pics because the brake lines are disconnected and HENCE I didn't clean the wheels/tyres as they'll get dirty when I'm working on the brakes tomorrow! Here's some pics I took while I was claying the car a few weeks ago, before:After doing half the bonnetAfter doing ONE door! And the new pics, hopefully you can see the difference with the '98 style indicators, Gloss splitter, restored wipers & mirrors Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted April 6, 2010 Author Share Posted April 6, 2010 I got on with fitting my Earl's hoses today, thanks to using shitty tools and turning the wrong way, I've rounded off a bolt on the passenger side brake line Hopefully I should be able to get hold of another brake line soon enough but until then I'm stuck driving a gay mint green 5dr Corsa B I did the driver's side in about 5 mins after buying some quality tools so I'm gutted with what happened earlier lol Pics! Green! Goes well with the pads I got a bit bored after not being able to finish the brakes, and had a load of Satin Black paint lying around so I decided to spray my Rocker cover! It was in a horrid state since I bought the car so it's something I've been meaning to do for a while!Old pic to show how bad it was before! Cleaned up a bit It's only a temporary thing, and by no means perfect, but it's a damn sight better than before! I do however have another plan in mind for the rocker cover when I get a chance to have another crack at it! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 looks super clean with that clay stuff, got some videos of mine and my bros cars but my computers playing up so im gunna have to put them on here a different time. when are you going back to get your exhaust sorted?Just post them up on Youtube Dunno man, the plan was to get my Glanza parts sprayed, THEN get the exhaust sorted. But I dunno if the bodyshop has moved to their new place yet so I'm tempted to just get my Cat-back done .Ah well I'm gonna try and see what happens first with the bodyshop, if they make me wait for a few weeks yet, I may well just get the exhaust done!Well as I had to remove the shagged brake line, I needed to take off my Strut brace, Airbox, inlet pipe, Corolla inlet to get to it, so I decided to spruce them up while they were off! Fresh lick of paint now, so the bay should look a lot cleaner I need to replace the brake line now, once that's done I'll take a pic of the bay with all this lot fitted! I'm also gonna have a crack at Advancing my ignition timing thanks to Chris aka nastyrash2003 for the help & advice! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 ohh my god!!! I've never seen one of those spanners before and was thinking, "Someone should invent one with a gap" Thanks for the tip durmz, I'm afraid the damage has already been done but at least I got the line out in the end, had to hack it off I can't to get her back on the road again and test out the new Earl's lines!

Russleh Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 i done the same thing fitting my HEL braided lines. for some unknown design reason both the threads on the braided line and the hard line dont start straight away and have a few mm's of blank space so that meant i was only gettin about 2 threads of grip which didnt hold up to much tightening. had to fit a whole new copper line which has now gone statue of liberty green which isnt the best look for the engine bay. hate touching brake lines now lol.
