lol at p***y having a swear filter

Wahoo, my first brake line



Wasn't looking forward to making up the stainless steel brake lines but was suprised how workable it was. Hey ho, only 3 more to go not bad for a weeks work

that will look sweet

Plumbed in the Setrab oil cooler this evening. Kinda wishing id made the most of the existing pipework as the goodridge ones are massive and going be a pain to route down to the sandwich plate not too mention the neon £300 they cost including the stupidly priced fittings

Cheers for the hand today mate, another step closer to keeping up with your skyline

[richymotor]

i think you'll be doing more than keeping up with me .... i think i'll just about be able to make out the rear of your car on a quarter mile run lol

Bit of a progress update from the weekend. Brake lines now all made up and fitted...





Petrol tank, pump, filter and braided fuel pipes now all in place...



And the Sard FPR



And finally the loom is back in the car. some of the wires were in a right mess and its not until you start stripping back the sheathing that you notice how bad they are. I would say definetely a must for anyone planning any work on their calibra.



Now where did I leave my engine

[richymotor]

so does that mean that you're actually going to be putting it in this weekend?

awww man why do i have to be at work today!
those fuel hoses are looking nice .... well as nice as fuel hoses can look if you know what i mean.

i'll be up sometime for progress and maybe a little help if i can be bothered in your freezing cold garage lol

Still a few little jobs I need to sort out including modding the front bumper and fitting rear brakes thanks to Jon taking them off and throwing in the bin

Im moving back home next week so should have a bit more time on my hands to finish things off and im sure an extra pair of hands will be good when I lift the engine in.

Fitting the pas cooler was the main job today.....



getting a bit busy with the rad in place but all fits well

[richymotor]

i'll be there this weekend then .... i'm not working so i should be able to help (as long as i shift this cold) Jon's is now fully MOT'd and running .... i can't believe he beat you lol

i'm not sure if we'll be up in mine or his as i'm sure he'll have no fuel by this weekend lol

if i ding your rad i appologise now but it's not my fault lol
