    looking through this I've noticed you've moved the brake fluid reservoir, how and where is the bottle located now? did you have to cut the factory plastic pipes?

    as the standard location is perfect for a coil pack

    Bottle is no other side of scuttle panel, didn't have to cut pipes just fed through a hole I made :-)

    I did have coil mounted there before I went wasted spark. Now it covers perc fan hole :-)

    I thought as much, where abouts did you drill the hole? As where I'd like the hoses to come up is covered by the drivers side battery mounting.

    I'm fitting my nodiz and fitting the coil pack where the bottle goes as I've got the gen 2 coil pack which is flat bottomed.

    Battery should be on pass side on a gtt shouldn't it? Mine is in boot so can't remember

    Hole is just in the bottom of scuttle, on the ledge so it's just above master cyl, pipes feed through. I tried a flat bottom coil but had a misfire so I'm actually running an old ka 1.3 coil I had lying about... So far so good

    Last update... Pulled it out garage Saturday for a clean up....



    And it was collected Sunday morning to go to its new home down Bristol way



    Luckily... I already had a worthy replacement, and was the only car I would sell the 5 to fund...

    It may not be turbocharged, but it's still an epic wagon, love it even with running costs lol







    One door closes, another one opens. I'll still be on here but my GTTurbo journey has ended after 9 years and 3 days... But who knows what future holds... The futures bright...

    Nicely done Mark. Lovely 3 series

    I bet you'll be back to a GTT as a second car at some point.
