Very, very nice work with that defi controller mounting. Really clean install bud :thumbs:

 

Thanks Gaz

Been inspired by other people's ideas and yours :) so thought I'd try and do something a little bit different, never seen it done like this before and hate the look when people just stick them on the dash somewhere or under the steering wheel!

I know when i come to do the gear box tunnel conversion this lot will have to come out again :rolleyes: but i`m starting to get moaned at quiet a bit now as the dining room and conservatory are starting to look like a car parts warehouse lol, so as the black carpet and head lining i have are large items that take up to much storage space i thought id make a start at fitting it all :)

 

old Grey carpet gone!

Not a great deal has happened with my build recently :( but I have been gathering some parts up from Mr Toyota and Whifbitz etc. :)

 

New gearbox oil for the V161

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=190540&stc=1&d=1409510122

 

New drop links and rubber mounting bushes for the Anti roll bar when it's ready to go on, also got a new rear diff cushion

As the N/A has one missing in the rear sub frame but has the hole there ready to fit one.

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=190543&stc=1&d=1409510442

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=190544&stc=1&d=1409510442

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=190545&stc=1&d=1409510442

 

I started a thread regarding this plug but finally found what I was after :) my engine loom's from an Auto TT so the plugs need modifying down at the gear box end and a few chopping off! This is the plug that needs putting on the loom in place of the big grey plug which was for the auto box, I wanted to use the original plug to make it a proper job instead of using rubbish aftermarket ones.

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=190546&stc=1&d=1409510948

 

New clutch master cylinder and rubber dust boot protectors and pipe work plus brake pedal assembly for the gearbox conversation, also a new panel for the gearbox tunnel that has to be changed when converting from Auto to Manual.

attachment.php?attachmentid=214188&stc=1&d=1472370110

 

New Syvecs Ecu from Whifbitz

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=213491&stc=1&d=1469268085

 

Another addition to the shopping list was one of these :D a nice new Lexan spark plug cover (the full version type) been after one of these for flipping ages and now finally have one. :cool:

Finally got round to getting the TT Anti roll bar I have down to the sand blasters for a good clean up! Now it's back and all nice and clean it was ready for a nice fresh coat of black paint :) also got the mounting brackets done for the Anti roll bar so will be giving these a nice coat of paint as well.
