Wow - update time i think is called for
Been way too busy at uni to een be arsed with an update
Anyways it's hard to remember whats been done since last time but here goes:
Parts Bought:
-Mk4 Rear Wiper
-"RS" Logo'd black seat covers (x2)
-G - Max Suspension kit (shocks and springs)
-Headlamp Protectors
-New Leccy window mech as the drivers one snapped.
-Ford Plastic Battery Cover
-Opening rear quarter window nut covers
-Oil breather
-And the all import road tax and magic tree
Im sure there's more bits i will think of but that all for the moment.
Fitted:
-Oil Breather
-Headlamp Protectors
Fitted the rear wiper arm, that came with aa brand new blade too which was a bargin - really works a treat - MOT is up in a week or so's time so i'll be getting new front blades too i recon.
About 2 weeks ago got myself a rivet gun and set about fitting the opening rear quarters - were quite easy to do overall after a few inital problems with the rivets falling out
- some washers sorted that out though.
Fitted the rear suspension today - car now sits noticably lower (-40mm drop) - still need to do the front this week so i can get the tracking done before the MOT - only prob is i need to buy some new bushes for the struts - can't stretch to poly ones though - it'll have to be the ford ones for the mo
Problems:
Car now seems to be leaking oil from the sump, haven't had a chance to look at it yet though, lucky i checked the levels though as it was well below the minimum so had it topped up pronto. I'll get this looked at for the MOT too - at worst it'll be a sump gasket or something.
Also the drivers side rear drum is becoming quite sticky
Wheel locks occasionally whilst reversing.
But saying that she's been 100% reliable after the probz i had with carb freeze due to the K&N - so swapped back to the standard filter with the hot air intake from the mani.
Next:
My next plans will be to get a cheapo set of alloys, get the wirirng done for all the leccy stuff - then go about spraying and fitting the bodykit.
No piccies for the mo, until i clear out my photobucket account - should be up by tommorow
