Looking good

Gary popped up to see Jim tonight and he made pretty good progress by himself!

Looking forward to joining this whole subaru thing in the near future! Just not as mental as Jimser

Will be impressive when its done.

Oh look, someone has finally popped there "posting" cherry!

[jimser]

as already has been said not much happening this week

fitted 24mm anti roll bars

for detailed fitting instructions see dales thread

also fitted ap calipers but the backing plate/stone guard was a nightmare to remove as

couldnt get at the bolts holding it for the driveshafts so just took off everything in the way;front shocker,driveshaft etc

engines going back in on sat so should get quite a bit done next week

[st3ph3n]

Are they the same size as Peters? They certainly appeared to be damn useful when I was humbled by a short drive in the chocolate mobile.

Car is looking good jim. Will be good to see you and DCI in the Bamboo ??? battle it out at Crail.

[thewelsho]

hmmm not right now... but, if I do go down the PPG route eventually, then I might as well give it all the torque it can handle! But that is a L-O-N-G way off, if ever

[jimser]

yesterday we fitted my old meercat exhaust,gary had it on his car but

took it off when selling.the downpipe of this system has now been on 5 cars

and the rest of the system 4.

downpipe wrapped

not all plain sailing but got there in the end

also re-fitted radiator and power steering reservior and other bits and bobs of re-connecting

hoses etc.

did have a bit of a worrying moment when i realised i had a bit of chocolate on the block

not good at all!

tonight we fited the rear coilovers

even managed to get craig on the job(yellow on here)

and heres another gauge ive decided to fit ,not sure how to wire it though?

thanks to geo(cusco kid)for getting the coilovers for me and simon(higgy) for

his advice,much appreciated guys
