where to start?...OH YEAH:, for those of you that i dont have on FB:
Now that i know the car actually starts/works i am LOVING working on it, it can actually start going back together and i can start doing the 'fun' bits, shit, i hoovered it out the other day! felt like a milestone! a far cry from cutting the front of the car away.
anyway, over the weekend iv been going over the car tieing up loose ends mainly; sorting the trim out in the boot, routing the battery cable and earth stealthly and securely, tucking bits of the engine loom, tightening up engine mounts etc etc etc
The engine mounts feel good too, the car whole car vibrates, i love it, feel solid, feels like a full on race car haha
the only 'big' thing i got sorted was fitting the charge pipes, also figured out where/how im going to mount the washer bottle, going to use the rear sprayer as a IC mist spray but all in good time.
a couple pics;
oh yeah, I found a used JDM plaster i found when taking out the rear interior:
Im going to lick it in hope of being more JDM.
pipes:
I was using the lead light while tightening engine mounts, thought it looked cool:
Oh yeah toe arms STILL not here

Pulled a late one tonight, finished about 10! aching all over, didnt get many pics really, not much interesting tbh, just more tieing up loose ends etc.
fitted my blang blang gold plated earth point fot the alternator.
finished the drivers side front wheel well for now and fitted the wing properly for the first time since i took it off months ago.
put on another coat of underseal, covered the hole where the loom used to pass through with some galvanised steel (thanks mart), trimmed and neatened the hole for the IC piping, and copper greased the coilover.
Also rust treaded my new drive shaft and the prop shaft, then painted them ready for tomorrow.
then last thing before going in got the diff filled with oil (thanks duane for the hand)
anyway:
^I have undersealed that plate now too^
