I've not been lazy!
Work wise the car is as it was in my last blog entry but I've been piling up the parts for it. Now we are coming up to the quieter part of the year I should be able to get stuck in to it.
In order of importance, heres the 'To do' list as of tonight....
Body
Replace rear outer and inner sill, N/S
Cut out badly repaired N/S/R floor section and repair as necessary
Finish removing sound deadening/underseal and basic seam welding
Remove bonnet/boot strengthening
Fit rollcage
Make and fit polycarbonate windows
Brakes
Replace all brake pipes, reroute inside car
Fit Pulsar GTI-R discs/pads/calipers
Fit calipers to rear
Connect up hydraulic handbrake
Fit braided brake lines
Suspension
Fit adjustable panhard rod
Modify Daewoo front legs, fit adjustable top mounts etc.
Replace front suspension arms with nylon bushes
Modify and fit strut braces
Align everything so the car drives nicely and doesn't burn tyres out
Engine
Modify and fit 1.6 throttle body
Fit 1.6 injectors
Fit adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Fix Apexi fuel computer
Get it all to work effectively!
Buy Janspeed or similar manifold & make exhaust system
Remove non essentials from engine bay
Other stuff
Make mountings for Cobra seats
Cut out non essential stuff from wiring
Fit battery and fuel cut out switches
Have serious rust/dents/second rate welding tidied and painted
MOT and transfer number plate :blush: M18CRA
That covers the parts I already have for the car. No doubt I'll buy other stuff before I'm done! :laugh:
Although I've not done much on the Micra I have managed to build a Daewoo Nascar (See general thread) and convert my long suffering Corolla into a bright orange van with nice alloys (Pics/thread coming soon!)
