he put the therastat in upside down so it didnt open untill off the red silly adam

be f**k hard to put the stat in upside down

its part of the cover mine is a late spec with air con, the stat is part of the out cover, look above there is a pic of it, its all built in.

and to save you looking here it is again. you cant fit it upside down

bit of progress today

fitted rear suspension, fitted headlights, waxoiled rear arch`s,

some pics,,

before lowering the rear, "the front has alredy been done"



old suspension off


comparing the vaux top mount to aftermarket top mount, i decided the same as last time i did my suspension to use the vaux top mount as its fatter and more substansial, ive heard aftermarket topmount knock occasionly, so to prevent this i used the vaux top mount




i wire brushed the inner arch and like the front got half a lawns worth of soil out :!



all wire brushed down


new suspension in, and waxoiled







and how it sits now




and my new headlight arrived so i fitted them up aswell

ooooooo lookin pretty sexual their mate

nice progress going to wax oil my arches on new project soon when just having rust problems like si at the min.

sub fitted to the box

new brakes fitted

heres the old ones i removed


and here's my shiney new ones
]

nope, all fine and dandy, bled first go, plenty of air in them and there solid now

also fixed my ariel, so fitted my headunit in
and fitted my inner door handles

tonights job was, a hours worth,
was in work all day so did this before

got some rear speakers,
and fitted them to rear panels

speakers,


and them fitted to the panel


not bothered about the colour, you cant see them, they dont have to be amazing etc as there only there for rear fill and i decided these would be more subtle than the 6x9's

6x9 were going in either there own enclosure, or rear door cards, and i have no rear seats. but the tidy'r it is the happyer i am

i have rubbed down and removed the surface rust from my front lower panel, then primer'd it.
it is now black as i have stonechipped it then waxoil'd it



my grill arrived aswell so im just waiting for my bumper back from being painted



and i sound deadn'd the doors
not a massive amount, but just enuff to make a difference

dynamat has better deadening properties

ive used both the flashing stuff and dynamat

the flashing is good for your boot but for the doors its not good enuff

here is the bumper built



bumper fitted

that looks ace...
