Changing all the hoses for blue as well, so I'll drain the coolant tomorrow and get cracking with that too, watch this space for more pics over the next couple of days. Just need my headers and a remap - hopefully next week Rich:norty:

If anyone is at a loose end tomorrow feel free to come around and dig in:D

Good work :)

i bet the wife aint happy about you cutting a big chunk out of her carpet so you can lie on it on the drive :D

It's from under the sofa, she won't spot it until she hoovers:D

:lol:


in for a shock then :)

:lol:


in for a shock then :)

so if we dont hear from you jon in a wile we know the wife has got her own back and put you under the patio lol

I'm safe for a couple of weeks, she's put her back out and won't be able to dig our London clay:eek:

you never know jon she might hire a mini digger to do it or get some pikeys to dig a hole for her lol:lol::thumb:

What top mount is that Jon?:norty:

...and following on from Guv's question.... what front mount is that mate? :D

The top mount was from the states, XS Turbo or somthing like that, wasn't the best fit, but I made it work.

The front mount was a Japspeed one from the group-buy, seems to be okay so, but I can give a full post-mortem later today hopefully:thumb:

subscribed.....gonna look mean after the front mount.....

Bo!!ocks:mad:

The induction kit I have is too big, and whilst changing the hoses the one way valve to the brake servo became a 2 way valve!!!!

bodge it back togeter and crack on :)

A nice cup of tea will fix it... good luck Jon!

I have a valve ;)

I'll give you a bell, I need the headers and remap soon (next week hopefully if you want the work:D)

No problem - give me a call :)

Not all bad, did some re-engineering (it's not bodging Mags) of the induction kit and trimmed some coolant hoses and it has all gone in:D

Just waiting for some hose for my DV recirc bung and then a valve from Rich, tomorrow will be mostly cutting and re-fitting the bumper, and if that goes well getting the sport cat on too:thumb:

Lookin mean :)

That air filter is massive!!
Have you thought about now reversing your bonnet scoop?

I've got no money left after this round of mods and I have insurance to sort out next week:eek:

Clutch is next on the list, and the scoop as it is will cool the intercooler pipes and keep the charge temps down a little more:D

It's looking really good Jon!:notworthy
If you need a hand to hold anything while putting back together let us know I'll only be sleeping and watching TV all day.

The next thing got any plans for your old purple pipes? Wouldn't mind first offers if any of them fit or just to pop round and compare sizes??

Keep up the good work!:thumb:

Already got someone interested in the hoses who has first refusal, if he changes his mind then I'll let you know:thumb:

Well done mate, looking good.

Good work mate :thumb:

Keep up the good work Jon

Chopped up my front bumper today and relocated the cold air feed. Had to trim the driver's side fog light opening quite a bit to clear the hose and get the bumper on. Some re-engineering of the brake ducts required to, but it is all now back together - sport cat next:D
