Bought a digital water temperature sensor & gauge to fit into my Blitz rad hose to keep an eye on things, the stock temp gauge has a tendency to only tell you problems after they've happened!

Plans for now are to finish making my alloy oil catch can and get a short-route FMIC sourced and fitted.


Then its a gearbox rebuild for spring time and more boost!



Nice xmas present from the wee bro :) Can give the car a good wax now while its sitting parked up..

If I remember rightly, Roadrunner stuff quite old and rare now isn't it? The name rings a bell, I bet a few on here haven't heard of it.

@Aidan & James:Thanks lads its coming along well, slowly but surely! puts a smile on my face with every journey, i had to drive a 1.4 Ibiza home the other day and getting back into the gt after that reminded me how much fun it is :)

@Ste yeah Roadrunner is an old and pretty rare set up now. Supposedly great quality and to be honest I love the kit too, it made such a difference compared to my ported oem manifold and a decat that looked like a spiders web lol

Not much of an update but found a few wee JDM articles.. Never knew i had oem Toyota mats already so thats a bonus! Gave the whole interior a good scrub and doused it with Supaguard fabric protector :)

I also finished my 1500 mile bedding-in cycle for the new engine, so the Millers mineral oil was replaced with some Millers 10w50 and a new Toyota filter fitted. Also give it a flush and filled with new coolant :)
