Defi warning indicator -3AN fitting for turbo Vacuum -12AN bulkhead fitting for breather kit Oil Temp sensor and plug for solaris. I'll stick some pics up later on.

Means a lot coming from yourself. looks mint mate, you will need an indicator or bumper or wing but for MOT.(unless you know a friendly guy).. Yeah I've got a friendly MOT station I use. After it's painted though I'm going to fit some carbon Ganadors with indicators in them. I can see the emissions being a little bit high too lol.

monsween Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Those wheels look like they are gonna be a bitch to clean lol. Have you thought about using a product called nanolex to seal the wheels? One of my mates has it done and makes the wheels really easy to keep clean I've said it before and i'll say it again, this is my favorite car on the forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Love it:cool: Thanks Jamie. As I said about Lees post means a lot coming from you guys. Those wheels look like they are gonna be a bitch to clean lol. Have you thought about using a product called nanolex to seal the wheels? One of my mates has it done and makes the wheels really easy to keep clean I've said it before and i'll say it again, this is my favorite car on the forum Your telling me. They took about 2hrs with some auto glym deep shine to get them like that. They were covered in dust from the filler n grinding dust etc. Good as new now. I do think I should look into something to coat them with to make them easier to clean though. It's a must I recon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 That stuff is a little on the pricey side but well worth it if you ask me. My cars going in to get a once over in the stuff for winter.

hodge Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Been back in the garage tonight again. Ive fitted the oil temp sensor for the solaris, Made up and fitted the harness to passanger footwell Fitted new oil pressure signal wire for the Defi oil pressure, Wired in and fitted Defi Warning indicator to dash, and finally put all the dash back together again and had the ignition on the check all the curcuits are correct. Whilst i was in the car I noticed the clutch was getting spongey again, totally gutted cos it took me and Bossco a full day to bleed this off after the issues we had with it, I crawled back under the car expecting the worse. hinks wernt as bad as thought really. It seems to be weeping slightly from the bleed nipple which odviously is slowly letting it lose pressure. Hopefully ill have this all sorted by tomorrow. Ive also started looking at the breather system and decided the following. Ill have 2 -12an lines running from the cam covers to the inner wing. I have 2 bulkhead fittings im going to fit into the inner wing so I can attach the other end of the -12an braided line. On the other side of the bulkhead fittings inside the wing, ill run both lines down to a catch tank inside the inner arch and have an atmospheric vent of the other side of the tank. Heres a few pics of tonights escapades. Oil temp sensor. fittings for big breather system. This is where the bulkhead fittings are going to go. Fittings on cam covers This is aproximatly where the 1st BOV is going to go. gave the engine bay a polish http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa74/hodge_012/014-28.jpg[/img</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> And back to this 1 cos I like it <img src= http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa74/hodge_012/001-36.jpg' alt='001-36.jpg'> More updates tomorrow hopefully.
