Fixed some random vacuum operated thingymajingy on the wee Pug and now it has low down torque to go with the million revs it loves to pull. Fun times. Coming to the realisation that I should have bought a 205 GTi back in the day instead of my RS

Was on that bandwagon when I was young good times

Well, A friend and I in the weekend removed the entire dash assembly, cross brace and dropped the steering. Removed the Heater core and went to pick-a-part to replace it. Removing the stuff from my car took a solid hour, the one at pick a part probably 30minutes.

Have put in the new heater core, and reassembled as it was getting dark and I needed to drive home. Left a few things unplugged so we'll pull it apart this saturday and tidy it all up.

Also grabbed a mint bumper and fog lights from an Outback while at pick-a-part, going to respray and put on the Legacy TS-R as I hate my fogs.

At least that's the plan

[Jimbob]

on the sprinter, got a couple of spray cans made up to tidy up and paint replacement front guard, and possibly front bumper

[wrx_lou]

How much were the cans man? and how big are they?

[Jimbob]

$30 a can and can says minimum 300g of paint, more expensive than the premade stuff at repco/supercheap but the sprinter is an odd toyota dark bluey grey. and less hassle than sourcing a compressor and sorting thinners out

Test fitted tube rear end

Brake change, as in just fluid? That does seem a bit high

replaced adjustables and new alignment. Feels good to have something that isn't knocking!!!

Hope you got your price well done cant wait for the new ride to be revealed

[DacerX]

Brought a new car and just done 500km in it and loving every minute of it

[subieboy]

Drove it like I stole it... Couple times even went into 2n-dary stage... Yea boi

[Johnnynz]

Failed a warrant, my mistake for going to VTNZ lol.

Car has also developed a very nasty backfire and massive Hesitation under acceleration. I am hoping its just old fuel as that fuel has been in it for a couple months now. However I think I might be looking at plugs, leads or coils as I am fairly certain it was ilding on 3 for a little while when I let it warm up today.

Not a good day...

[Johnnynz]

I wanted a warrant today and didnt think my normal workshop was open. The guy actually put the microphone of the noise tester in the exhaust lol. 110DB at idle in the exhaust ha ha. I am aware thats incorrect so I will go see my mechanic this week instead.

I was also failed on the brake pedal missing a brake rubber. A little anal but its the rule I guess.

[Drunkenmonkey]

Put the motor back in the race car after doing heat wrap and rocker gaskets to find the twisted setup doesn't line up at all so I'm dropping it off to Alex at highbrook to finish It and I Cbf anymore
