Well today is dedicated to a few minor jobs that need doing to make my car look at least 'normal'
I have a tailgate to fit and lock and No. plate to swap over.
Front wings need a bit of TLC with small bits of filler and spraying.
Inside doors need a rubbing down and spraying.
I am taking my Sub and amp down to Eurocar in Brighouse to see if they can fix it up for me, Power's on on Amp but no sound.
Inside the car is going to have to stay as is, so you'll be needing a special invite to see the mess that is my interior!!
I am swapping over my drivers seat with one that I have got in the garage because the seat mech to tilt handle has gone awol.
I am going to give it a general clean down and do an oil change, I might even polish it, you never know!!! |

So far all I have achieved is....
Bought Spark plugs...NGK V grooved
Bought new filter and oil.
Bought spray cans, I am trying a different shade this time I think it's Citroen white, Polar white is far too white for my aging bucket.
Bought mahoosive amplifier, 1600watt, monobloc.
...Now have a ridiculous amount of bass eminating from the huge 15"subwoofer, far too lound and will most probably shake my car to bits, the good thing is I can no longer hear my stoopidly loud exhaust now.
BAD THING.... When I hit 3rd the syncromesh is fecked, I have to slam it in and it sounds like I have just passed my test, not going to look good on the 1/4.
GOOD THING I'll still thrash Jacko |

Would offer you my box but seeing as you're putting in a turbo then you don't need it |

Nah I'll be alright matey...
I did say I was going to drive it to destruction, looks like I might achieve it...
I have changed the oil, plugs and filter. Stuck on some Magnecore leads and she purring like a beauty...
Just got a bit of final spraying to do now and load up, then it's POD and p1ssed. |
