Yes great effort with the engine and I'm picking up tips of my build - for instance doing the subframe whilst it's out - I hadn't thought of that. Engine looks great though not long now until she's road worthy again?

With subframe remember to mount anti roll bar correct way up as have to lower subgame again to change it if put wrong way up. Good time to polybush bar too.

Miss fire was two new dead plugs

After 2 weeks if trying to bleed clutch turns out previous owner had removed new looking master cylinder gutted the inside then re bolted to car.

So some more advice, don't trust nothing lol.

I also took advantage during re fitting of subframe and fitted new rear ball joints and droplinks to keep Mr MOT man quiet when he gets it lol.

Suppose being a bit over dramatic lol.

Seems like frunk won't close now fitted plastic trim over rads.

Try slamming it....

(please don't)

craig · Post by **craig** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 7:54 pm

have you got it perfectly slotted over the bonnet release catch and bonnet prop and fully tucked under the frunk seal?

gerbil1028 · Post by **gerbil1028** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 11:49 pm

Yeps red all on properly .

DB Mr2 · Post by **DB Mr2** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 1:12 am

Keep going it will be worth it! Cable is not pinched anywhere is it causing bonnet release to be open?

Good work Ian, get those Tom's skirts fitted - you obviously have the skills to get them on there.

gerbil1028 · Post by **gerbil1028** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 9:50 am

Not me lol I paint by numbers this is a mate doing it all.

He says they will need hours of work to fit and cause of the twist will probably crack paint in time and look xxxx.

Has advise bin them and put better quality ones on later.

I would say price and location of my mate but then he will get swapped with mr2 sill repairs lol
