PaulStarletSR Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 cheers mate, its gonna get better in the nxt couple of pages....... i need to re-attach the thermo housin, pick up the glanza dizzy and fuel pump and fit them too. then its just a case of fillin her up with the nessessary fluids, re-check the earths and vac lines and use my battery from the corolla and see if we have life!then if alls well, have a wank then start tidyin up the loose ends like boltin on intercooler, exhaust n shit. but i CANNOT find ma fuckin stainless cable ties anywhere so until that happens cant finish heatwrappin the exhaust and cant fit it. angry much! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 *wipes dust off his seriously old,unloved thread* had alot of personal shit goin down and also the weather hasnt helped but finally the wee SR is back on track and on its way to bein on the road! exhaust after bein modded to suit the TD04, didnt fit at all so back up it went, been re-modded and now it fits! most of the wires have been sorted,got a slight issue with the fuel pump wirin but thatl b sorted very soon as im getin the bits i need to sort it. head lights back on and currently cuttin out the wings to be prepped for sprayin! more pix to follow in the next few days but heres 1 for now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PaulStarletSR Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 ano mate, been way too long!
