over next few months this will do tidy'd and done up generally,
drove it twice since ive owned it, and ccome to the conclusion, the brakes have had it
plans are new brakes, suspension, inlet, full exhaust, stereo system, and some work to be done by a body shop
then i went on to buy lots and lots of stuff
new rear speakers
new front speakers, "were in the van"
calibra 256mm ate calipers, will be refurbed and run with red-dot disks and pads
shiny gearshift linkage
rear lights of the smoked variety
exhaust manifold of the janspeed 4-2-1 variety
then stripped it out a bit
some strippage today then some more another day, fit small stereo, waxoil it all and put it back minus the rear seats
lots of servicing goodies, not exciting but very very important
new exhaust
magnes cat back, 3" inwardly rolled
couple more bits
new manifold gasket, cat gasket, new bolts,spring and rubbers for exhaust. and new disks and pads
new suspension kit
annnnnddd
rebuilt my brake calipers with new seals and dust boots, just need painting black
and my new inlet
good job i got the manifold and a new cat, the joint flange has litrally turned to dust as i was undo-ing it,
gonna be a bastid to remove the manifold thou, with aircon and power-steering in the way
right so far
removed old manifold, fitted new manifold and fitted new timing belt and running gear
new belt on
old manifold
one of the reasons the manifold was junked
to get new manifold in i had to remove oil filter and front engine to box bolt
and new manifold on
