after a year of hard abuse, and no love, the scab is now doing about 15mpg, smokes more than i do, and is slow as arseholes... so its time for a bit of TLC for the old girl...
at RWS, after costing me £55 to do 200miles... bad times
the new engine, 72k, full renault service history... good times
new cambelt and tensioner... then....
rocker cover needed something funky...
with CTD carbon plug cover
all fitted up nearly ready to drop in
to be continued......
Good work. I seen this on my way out of fcs the wheels are canny bright! I was in the extremely noisy xantia td as my aircon compressor had fell to bits
they are a bit bright, had some cavalier takin pics of it on the way up... lmao!
gonna paint them ST orange like the rocker cover as the fluorescent paint wont laquer up well enough to keep the brake dust at bay
Nice work there mate like the car as coming rare them cabs now not alot about keep us posted on the tlc of the car
loving the rocker cover think its pretty funky
new update, started to rip it apart last nite, ready for new engine/subframe swap on saturday
decided to whip off the cat as i knew it was janked... it was all melted inside.... so we smashed the granny outta it and i now have a hollow 'cat shaped' decat pipe lol. that may have something to say about the crappy performance with a blocked cat lol
here is how it sits as of now, just steering UJ, one hub to strip and fingers crossed the subframe will be out later tonitegave the front panel a lick of satin black just to hide the rust... out of sight, out of my mind anyway lol
also, gonna paint wheel centres in ST orange rather than fluorsecent, thinkin mite do the inside of the headlights too... what u lot recon?
engine is now free, chilling out on a few bricks lol
got fresh with the wheels too, decided that fluorescent had been done, plus the
finish was a magnet for brake dust, so time for a lick of pearl orange :mrgreen:
night off tonite to get on the beers, then early start 2mora to get the new one in :roll:
