i flushed my coolant today (without a hose or outside tap

) fitted a new boost hose, and thought about scrounging a head unit for the day. so other than having no side skirts on, my cars ready to go

....i hope.

**minty83** · 24-09-2008, 21:53

Fitted new rear disks, pads and bearings and on the front new hub bearings, then on the inside fitted the passenger side carbon door card oh and replace the u/j on the steering rack as that had gone! fitted some quad lights for better air flow to the filter and c/c and had 4 new tyres two weeks ago

How far did you get col?

**Brigsy** · 24-09-2008, 22:27

So not just me with the last min repairs. My back engine mount has just pretty much fell to bits, so last minute repair if i can get one tomorrow! Also boost hose popped off, first time in 6 months must be due to the play on the engine.

Also springs arent here yet, rang up today & they said friday

So got the avo's on for now, dont seem too bad but tracking is all over the shop
