Coming together nicely man. And the calais diff it comes with the disc brakes and no lsd 25 spline from what I can remember
Got my girl back today. Had all this done: disc brake diff with new oil + new handbrake cable new f&r drilled & slotted rotors + bendix rear pads new HEL braided brake lines new superpro bushes all round repaired and re-gassed aircon new Power Steering Rack Boots new Lower Ball Joints new Rack Ends new Tie Rod Ends Hardly driven it yet but steering feels much tighter and accurate.....
rotors look tiny. what size rims u rollin on? (Cant quite see the tire size) looks the goods man. like what your doing to the L
Painted calipers blue today, did it without removing them Also got some shot of the new bushes, brake lines, rotors, chrome door striker bolts, etc.
Looks good! Should maybe have gone with a darker blue too go with the car colour. Let me know how long it takes for them to get black.
the blue its lighter in the photos than real life, I painted the fronts a fair while ago but they were still blue. redid them but.
looks the goods man. did u prep the callipers from that surface corrosion? if not u wont get adhesion. what paint did u use was it the VHT paint? the L's looking good bud
i used 3m calliper paint, did a bit of prep, painted the fronts the same a fair while back and the paint never came off
FINALLY have a properly working ice cold A/C system! (and windscreen washer) There was a one way valve for the two in the engine bay that was the wrong way round, so they had no vacuum! Im a happy chappy now! Its starting to get hot and Im sick of sweating it out..... PLUS I also FINALLY properly mounted my main fuse box underneath the glove box. I had it stashed in the glove box all loose n ****. Im gonna make a cover out of some black carpet to hide it a bit more. used the factory box, just cut it down to size: also looked what ticked over today:
top work mate. How much difference did the extra sound deadening make behind the dash and under the carpet?
