Lol I live alone man and I'm young!
Been at it today… Repaired the striped flange I had complete with new bearing
Cut my gear shifter and my old one to weld together so I could use my ally golf ball
Chucked a slim line fan ont top fill rad
NEW WHEELS!!!
Needs to come down a bit but my coils are seized

Cheers lads!
Wd40 ain't budging coils either we have stronger penetrant at work and that won't
Got some tidying up bits done yesterday and swapped wiper motor for a mk2 item
Also tidying yet more wiring up so it looks neat in there, will be attempting some lathe work on say to make a spacer for my trigger wheel and hopefully, a strong one at that, get it fired up!

My coilovers eventually gave way in a vice if I remember correctly. They were a right mother"£$%^" though. I feel your pain trying to loosen them Brad

Megajolt is mappable ignition, so I can map my advance and control it more than the Kr setup
Simple enough once its read and understood

It's a brand called ambersil and we use it when stripping machinery down at work and frees most things off easy. Il sort it, wanted non budget coilovers anyway

Gunna do it mate and hopefully raise my turrets to regain some travel on suspension.
Made a spacer up for my crank wheel, needs spacing out due to the rubber dampener on the abf pulley can cause false signals
So, exhaust on tomorrow, finish coolant system (pipe rad up) and then, fingers crossed, start up day! Fingers crossed
