Got the car running Saturday night. Drove it around for a few hours and all seems good. Received the silicone hose and connectors to plumb in a recirculating dump valve so will be doing that tonight then tomorrow I'm booked in with a garage who will be fitting the LCR Brembos, ultimax discs, ferrodo ds2500 pads, braided lines and filling the system with ATE blue brake fluid. At the same time I will get the car raised a bit at the front and then stick on the mk1 TT Ronals which I had done in LC9Z paint.

Thought I'd update this a bit, been busy buying things and not actually doing much to the car, apart from getting this painted up and the b%$t+rd polybushes fitted into it[emoji34]....... Its times like those when I remember why I'm a bodywork man! Then I unfortunately discovered that a good mate was breaking a VF charged VR so popped round to see what it was all about and maybe have a couple of bits from it, then got all excited about the charger and somehow ending up buying the car[emoji15]! After much thought well about 30 seconds and the fact that Bealieboy was egging me on because he wan

absolutely loving this thread!! Ive got myself a Schrick manifold to go on in due course, how have you routed the HT leads? as the manifold seems to just leave them to flap about like a sausage in a bucket.... some kind words of knowledge or pics would be great

When I got in from work, all my clothes were on the bed and I asked, am I leaving? She replied, yes! Turned out I just had to sort out a load of rags for polishing etc. PHEW!

Haha! Yeah I'm not looking at any more for sale vr6 parts or cars for a long time! Especially after nearly buying a corrado on the salvage auction the other day[emoji3]! I think she'd definitely pack my bags![emoji23][emoji23]

It wasn't my fault you bought it ben, all I said was.............. Anyway, Now you've made me buy one! [emoji33]

Got in touch with them today guys...... Hi Aaron - The club stands booked up about two months ago, but if you drop me an email with club name, number of cars, contact email, contact number and contact name I'll put you on the reserve list - alex@fitteduk.com

Mine used to trickle down the footwell in the drivers side. You could see a faint trickle by the latch to pop the bonnet. With that in mind I dumped a load of silicone around the area where the cable goes into the engin bay in the scuttle panel. Still leaked...

I am deffo not going for show and shine. my poor rado needs a full respray first!

Sounds good to me!As long as Bealieboy wakes up on time![emoji6][emoji23]!

hahaha yeah Im up for the Sunday, was good last year, hopefully will have a couple of changes this year to the rado! But, at the rate its going at the minute (absolutely no interior) the tow may be required

I think most people route them underneath the manifold

F paying a garage to do it, you never learn if you dont do it yourself!!!

Get the rado mot'd and taxed before show date and I'll drive, if not I'm thinking of going on train then I can sup on a few pints.

Spray gun stand I made With my cheapy spray gun. Top section is for a filter to sit in when filling spray gun. Top coat polyurethane, meant to very hard wearing, some people say harder wearing than powder coat. As it's used on oil rigs, and cranes at sea. But I will find out over time. Hopefully it's brilliant. It sets almost like rubber. It's made from polyurethane which is a type of rubber compound. And commonly used to make poly bushes, which everyone knows last longer than normal bushes. Plus a hook to hang spray gun in booth. One with the heater, as I usally move it to take a better

Well I will have 4 month to build it so should be doable. It's the management side that's going to be a pain do i convert to obd2 (I think I have most of the conversion) and use united Motorsport software or do I find a supplier for obd1.

Well I think I'm going to seriously compete in the show and shine I'm going to hammerite some rust tomorrow

Yes mate ,put his name down..will tow him there if I have to.

One of the lads on a Scoob site I go on bought an old dishwasher . Fitted it in his garage . He cleans all bloody sorts with it from suspension parts . Etc if it fits in it he washes it !!
