No not yet monday ,i told you it would be the ecu !!!!!!!

BRIGSPORT · 11-02-2010, 08:42 PM

Looks good.

dingla rs · 11-02-2010, 08:43 PM

i take it the ecu is feckd cos battery wasn't disconnected when welding ? still least you mite get to use it for a while now

COCHYN · 11-02-2010, 09:07 PM

Nah, it was disconnected which was the weird part. Could just be a coincidence.

COCHYN · 26-02-2010, 12:36 PM

Went for the usual drive around Snowdon, but the diff's been knocking a bit lately, gradually getting worse. So after taking these pics, I put her on the axle stands and removed the diff and shafts (bearings stuffed in them too), what do you expect from abused 20+ year old bits

John Coles manged to source me very low millage shafts and a diff, so just waiting on them at the mo. Should be back on the road tonight hopefully

maxest · 26-02-2010, 12:43 PM

Looking good, is your slam panel rusty?? Why didnt you get it painted when you had the rest done..

Autoflock Motorsport · 26-02-2010, 12:45 PM

Cochyn - If you ever need a diff rebuilding I have a contact who rebulds all the rally lads diffs round here, top bloke at very good prices. Just summit to bare in mind mate

Raj

COCHYN · 26-02-2010, 12:48 PM

Cheers pal, will keep that in mind. But Stage 3 power, quite happy with stock diff at the mo

@ Maxest

I have a new one to fit, just not got round to it. No point repainting them, more hassle for something with a mix of plastic and metal, would rust again. Cheaper buying a new one

woolford · 26-02-2010, 04:38 PM

looking good

blacky. · 26-02-2010, 04:55 PM

Glad it's getting sorted

I think you really freaked him mate, had a different post man every day now since your little burst of creativity

But thanks Blacky for the drumstick, the difference is unbelievable

Diff n' shafts didn't arrive today though

working all through weekend, so will no doubt arrive for me to fit Monday morning. No worries though, spent the day buftying underneath it again......much to Blacky and Wenny's dislike no doubt!

blacky. · 26-02-2010, 07:00 PM

I will let you off your allowed to clean them when there broke lol

glad to helpout mate you know things are easyer to get hold of around here only thing you can get hold of easy there is sheep

COCHYN · 26-02-2010, 07:06 PM

Contrary to popular belief, its really hard, unless you got a pair of those velcro gloves

Aaaaanyway....luckily it ain't broken, I just thought I'd change the diff due to the little knock before it becomes a big problem and I'm stranded somewhere, forcing to me to torch the fu*ker

WENNY · 01-03-2010, 11:43 PM

ive told you ill take it in px lol

COCHYN · 03-03-2010, 12:18 AM

Git!

How was your holiday?

GaryHurn · 03-03-2010, 09:06 AM

awesome car this, such a sleeper i wouldnt mind building something very similar at some point, how much does andrew charge for the fab work out of interest? i take it all the std
saph cossy stuff fits? front and rear suspension, steering rack, diff etc, does the prop need altering to suit the focus (length wise)?

No pics, but update as of this morning was a new (to me anyway) very low millage diff and shafts. World of difference

WENNY · 06-03-2010, 05:30 PM

ye make sure its all good before you bring it to me

COCHYN · 06-03-2010, 05:30 PM

WENNY · 06-03-2010, 05:38 PM

COCHYN · 06-03-2010, 08:01 PM

Broken or in one piece?

WENNY · 07-03-2010, 02:23 AM

ye no probs as i can fix it lol

COCHYN · 08-03-2010, 05:17 PM

Very untidy pics, need to clean some excess oil, grease and salt off the underside, but you get the idea. Oh, there's no leaks anywhere just incase you think there is around the fuel pump

c20tbo · 08-03-2010, 06:25 PM

looking good matey.

COCHYN · 19-03-2010, 11:20 PM

*Update

Front wheels coming off over weekend to be refurbed next week, as well as small bits like the strut tops to be powdercoated. Fuel line and slam panel also. Should be happy for Central then.

Oh, anyone got a source for 330mm rotors and bells???

Managed to win this on ebay, have a particular use for it
