yeah i need to wrap my one at some piont and at the same time relocate the powersteerin pipe around the mainfold as its currently touching it.

this arrived in the post today at work while i was sleeping, got the message and went down there, for what i paid for them im quiet happy how they are for now, its just a matter of time to see if it fully works once i get it installed.

cars had a little of love this week, 2 brand new tyres yesterday and then sent her back to my mates garage for tracing to be looked at and my mate was surprised to see how out of place it was when he looked at it. got it all sorted now and its like a dream to drive and now not having problems with the powersteering being soft as its abit harder, topped it with some oil aswell until i can get my jack back and get a oil change done.

good to hear that

is that matty101s digi dash?

i dont think so, brought it off some1 off of corsasport but he mite of before me.

been a while but update is this week i waiting on new gear drive for my f20 gearbox from vauxhall as it was only £15.99, current 1 the gsi speedo cable snapped inside it and i cant get it out, that should be here by tuesday so thats when ill be putting in my astra digi dash.

and last night as i pulled up to my destination my white smoke just come out the engine turnt it straight off and let it cool down fort it was my head gasket for a second and fort i wouldnt of been able to get home in the morning, woke up this morning and looked under the bonnet and turnt out to be a powersteering pipe burst and went everywhere in the bay so i need to take the powersteering off for now which be done 2moro and then clean the engine bay, what would be the best way to clean the bay covered in transmission fluid?

how did it happen?? did you left the pipes as it was?

well the journey was only 20mins, pulled up and started reversing and it just come up with white smoke. i moved 1 of them, i was planning on taking it off, just the fluid leakd before i could do get underneath and drain it off.

Brand new f20 gear drive has been deliverd and picked up from local VX Dealership, so that and the transponder will go on the car over weekend and then ill get some help from my mate to add the digital dash inside, sorta dont wanna do it alone incase i do it wrong tho it looks simple.
and powersteering comes off fully tomorrow, currently only has the belt taken off.

cars been forced off the road, have a big knocking noise when i turn right, so got to jack it up and see if i can find the problem, while im doing it im going to wire up my digital clocks.

been awhile since i posted any update, didnt do much to the car over xmas and got back to work on it last week as i had the time off ill so had a few chances to stuff.

fitted:
New bootlid with spoiler and rear light tints
smooth badboy bonnet but needs to come back off for respray this weekend hopefully
cig lighter installed, works but doesnt have enough power to work my satnav, does it need earthing? its connected up only by pos & neg on the battery with a inline fuse
digital clocks in, but i think i mite of missed/wired it in slightly wrong

this week:
stripping my mates old arden blue shell and adding
front light tints then ill get the rears puts in later in the week
smoked side repeaters
steering wheel as mine looks like it comes from a bus

and take a few things off it to sell on aswell for cheap hopefully.

ill get some pics added up aswell.

bad times seems my headgasket is about to fail. so off the car comes for a few weeks

Thats not good news mate.
Hate when cars dont work right, Hope you get it fixed quick.

cars been left away as the weather is been cold but just orderd a c20let, with all new gaskets and will be ready for ph2.5 once i get the mod parts and setup. finalizing price within the week, so planing on getting the xe out of the engine bay once the snow has gone
