As my car has been so well behaved it has already had new samco hoses and a waterpump.

Now its getting a kent cam, pulley, new injectors and a k&n. If it doesnt misbehave over new year its going to get poly bushes and a new exhaust if the wife doesnt find out about our affair!

Plus I might even wash it if it warms up and stops raining!

Fitting a Porsche Dash to your MK1 is it a straight fit?

Would you mind documenting it & the install / connection - would be interesting.

Its not the easiest of fits (its an old boxter dash btw pic below)


I've got to get it re-trimmed before final fitment, but i'll keep you all posted during the dry fit stage.

p.s imagine this dash in a MK1 Cabby…… what do you all think?

For mine its…

new….
top mounts
shocks (front & rear)
springs (front & rear)
wishbones
bushes all round
discs and pads (front)
pads (rear)
16v master cylinder & servo
brake fluid

and the best bit…. tyres!
the old Road Champs are going at last in favour of Toyos all round.

I think that will do it for now!.

Mine is getting a nice little MP3 player which will eventually get wired up to a small amp instead of a head unit as we can't cope without tunes anymore!

A good wash (even the glass inside and out!!  8O )

A good clean out (amazing how much rubbish you collect when you have to have the roof up most of the time - it usually just blows away!!  :lol: )

The grey interior cleaning with the new car vax that we bought specially a couple of months ago. Then it will be white again!!

And I might just order the new mats I've been promising us (me n the car!)

 :mrgreen:
