I can't believe the last update was in July! In September I was lucky enough to attend the 2nd show of the year dodging the national lock downs, this was Modified Live Snetterton. Would have been rude not to as the circuit is only a 20min drive away. On the drive home the car threw up the...

There comes a stage with every car build I have where the car is looking really good (perhaps perfect in some eyes) and nothing needs to be changed or altered. Then I get an idea in my head, become determined to carry out said idea(s) thus ruining the car completely. Sometimes it works in my...

We sell the E-Tech arch guard at work, unsure if it'll be wide enough to cover the area (generic ebay link) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E-Tech-Self-Adhesive-Universal-Vehicle-Arch-Guard-Wheel-Trim-Protector-Black/142797299132?epid=3017023451&hash=item213f61ddbc:g:5yIAAOSw-mda~E5I

The issue is, with reflector headlights you don't get a proper beam with LED bulbs, they're better suited for projector headlights. By all means fit them, but you'll be blinding everyone (previous experience with my MX5)

I purchased an eBay short shifter a few months ago but was waiting for the exhaust to be changed to do so. While the Gizfab 4-2-1 Manifold was being fitted I also installed this along with a new stock middle section. Installation was straight forward with the help from Leadfoot's video on...

I went for a drive to take some photos that weren't my from my phone (for anyone curious on what I use,Canon 6D, Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art) So this will be a photo dump as I got abit carried away haha

I made a bracket to support the air duct hose. Its a tempory thing until I can find someone with a riv-nut tool and I'll look into moving it to the suspension turret (will need to check the hose for shape/fitment at that position) The final piece of the engine bay puzzle finally arrived, my...

Got it plugged into a Snap On machine this morning and it brought up P0443 Evap Purge Control Circuit Fault The carbon canister has been unplugged and removed, so will need to find a way to loop the circuit or at least see if I can remove the sensor from the canister and leave it plugged in (if...

So today I sorted out the PAS reservoir bracket and made a bracket for the airbox, but the breather hose coming off the rocker cover is very very close to the mounting hole so I've left that for now. Adjusted the throttle cable leaving the airbox off incase I needed to adjust it more....car...

Today I wanted to get the last remaining jobs ticked off the list and hopefully turn the key. First job was to fit the Almera N15 GA16 Airbox and air ducting. I found some 51mm reinforced air duct in the garage that I purchased for the supercharged MX5 but never got round to using it. I...

Its a stock manifold fitted at the moment while I wait for my Gizfab 4-2-1 to be made

I did buy a turbo but sold it shortly after due to the cost of the engine management and probably a bottom end rebuild

Its certainly a job I don't wish to do again, live and learn :)

Paul (pollyp) recommends this Radiator and it worked faultless on his turbo set up, I trust his advice and judgement :)

Sunday 22nd November Spent a couple of hours in the afternoon on the car. Unfortunately I couldnt do much until parts arrive but I managed to tick off a few smaller jobs Fuse box and plugs cleaned Battery tray fixed down Battery earth fitted Earth points cleaned to bare metal and fitted...
