im guessing you dont paint the block's with a paint brush, looks too neat to be done with a paint brush.

Warren, how did you do the handbrake cable for your rear disc conversion, did you use a nova short cable?

it is indeed mine, delivered last friday

no longer turbo but is still very nippy, and not far off the b id say,

it is not a replacement, just a run around while the b goes off the road, for cage, strippage, new engine etc

and fancied something more comfactable and better in winter, quiter, and more refinded

first thing was a water pump and cambelt kit change, for piece of mind! and was free
things you wish you never start too, water pump was seized in, never had one this tight

effects after air chisel!



rear discs corroaded, and annoying drilled and grooved

new discs/pads, calipers painted blue

bumper off
fog lamps fitted
sri center grille fitted

lights swaped for facelifts + HID 6K ordered

280 warren g kit awaiting fitment, after JR's brilliant painting skills

as was not keeping 1.2 brakes even 1.8 brakes are utter shit

white led's


fuel filter/pollen filter/ key battery changed

to do
fit aircon pipe, gas aircon up
fit pipercross panel filter/destrict airbox
1.9 air intake (if JR finds it)
and id like some 256 cams, then should push 145-150bhp


then leave it, and just drive it
