What have you done to your car today?

[Guest]

Switched to closed loop boost control figured the open loop table was close enough find out how it drives tomorrow. Swore lots and lots at clutch switch and decided to leave it till a weekend so i can pull seat out and slide under dash a little more comfortably.

May put on hoist tomorrow to do mani exhaust leaks if cbf but doubt that very much.

Oh and put on lower sti spoiler on the weekend.

Got my 89 brumby running reliable on an auxiliary fuel tank, pretty much confirms my fuel pick up is blocked in the tank, not sure how I am going to fix it to be honest, no real ports in the tank, one very small one on the opposite side to the pickups for the sender unit, maybe tank out and replacement tank or just run a fuel tank in the bed

Began stripping the bay again, changing the breather tank and the water reservoir is going, hate the factory one I'm using. Got to change fuelling system to make it legal too for new cert.

Now I have space to mini tub the front wheel arches.

What are you changing on the fuel set up?

I have the ethanol sensor in the cabin with two fittings on it, and I'm sure I read you can't have any fittings for the fuel line in the cabin has to just pass through there. Going to mount it on the fire wall in the engine bay and move the fuel reg too.

Yeah not overly keen on welding on a fuel tank may have to though

Finally managed to fit this on my car. Had a little bit of time left on Saturday so went for it.

The kit

After

Put new brake pads in, old ones only had a few mm left in them. So far I have loved working on the legacy, so much easier than the last car to work on.

Ordered a replacement for this trim panel which got bitten by a wild Miata bonnet.

Was not cheap.

[icecold]

installed a nexus 7 tablet into the dash of the wagon.

This post got rather long so I made a thread for it.

That's the one! Only the driver's side though, kinda looks odd with the rest being beige BUT I do not really care

[Kiwi_Fozze]

Will happily take it off your hands if you ever feel like going back to beige

Not for now, even "the boss" seems to be fine about it (and she hasn't even seen/tried the fan thingy yet (aka the balls cooler))

Long-term plan is to find a similar model Recaro seat (Sport Topline) for the passenger side.

Decided to change the bov location on the car and change to Gfb one. Finished redesigning the fuel lines and relocated the sensor and fuel reg, just got to extend the wiring.

Waiting on the combined water and catch can to be fabricated.

Got the car back from the paint shop yesterday. Front, bumper, bonnet and roof are now all chip free. Although the finish is OK now, I had to take it back after I first got it last week. So don't make the mistake I did and get a Grabone deal for Onshow Kustoms. Ray is a nice enough guy, but seems to lack attention to detail. I'll post some pics once I get some wax over the new paint.
