what did you used to clean the expansion tank/reservoir?
what did you used to clean the expansion tank/reservoir?
i cleaned it with hot water and turpentine for the outside, and swilled inside with hot water.
cheers mate, yeah spent alot of time in that engine bay like that,
i would do the engine bay a mad colour, the good thing is when the bonnet is closed it looks like a dull s13, just wanted something unusual.
had a little clean up today,
had a word with DAL and im all payed up and ready to recieve the engine.
big thanks to DAL for the rebuild and i hope this is going to be worthwhile if not i seriously dont know what the hell i will do.
got some yellow tape and wrapped my wiring loom and positioned my fan shrouding.
nothing much to do really till the engine is back.
you're going to struggle a bit to get the engine in place with the radiador and shroud on...
best to remove them prior to fitting the engine.
anyway, it seems it will look pretty cool
by the way, has the engine been fully rebuilt?
yeah just making sure everything looks right, il take everything out when the engine comes..
yes a full rebuild.
I hope this time is for real, and you can enjoy a good running in period and the great time after that
enought said
funny sh1t :P
bit of an update.
started on with the brake lines after the abs removal.
once a flaring tool has been obtained ile sort it further.
so my checklist is...
engine back from its full rebuild (wednesday)
apexi air filter
catback exaust with decat pipe
stage 1 chip
boost controll valve
tax
roll cage (only once its running spot on)
all in good time.

just eagerly awaiting the engine, back today (wednesday) so took the day off from work to put it in.
