Winter Tinkering Complete!

[richardm6994]

Hi Everyone,

 

Had a great weekend as I've fired-up my engine for the first time since I started my "winter tinkering" back in october.

 

Jobs done this winter;

 

1) Megajolt installed; This was easier than I thought it would be.....except by VR senor wires were backwards and it would start until this problem had been found (I blame triggerwheels as there wiring diagram was wrong).

 

2) Anti rollbar removed and tie bars fitted (covered this under seperate topic)

 

3) New headlights fitted

 

4) Engine head and block re machined. Cometic head gasket fitted with new ARP head studs

 

5) Engine bay cleaned and re-painted (what a horrible job!!!)

 

6) The entire car has been re-wired from scratch

 

7) Front suspension struts reinforced (the exmo weakness!)

 

All that is left to do now if fit the seats back in, touch-up some paintwork, give her a clean and tax!! I'm going to rolling road her at some point soon (never been rolling roaded before so it should be an experience!).

 

I'm really looking forward to driving her with the megajolt and tiebars!! Should hopefully see a big difference!

Nice one shaft! I think the tail lights onto your rear arches look mint btw!

 

We should see if people are interested and possibly arrange a weekend meeting at the a6 bacon van and then have a blast through matlock etc...
