Gave the car one of many proper detailing/polish/wax in prep for the shows of 2006.

Before


After




By this time Id added a Nissens Alloy rad, Tarmac Sump Guard, Uprated suspension top mounts, Mintex M1144 pads and group N grooved discs all round, OMP Record seats and further stripping of the interior.

And Ive also got a new camera to take lots more pictures.






Had a play with the new camera as well.








Also been on the rolling road with it, managed 181 bhp at the fly and 163 at the wheels, proper chuffed with that.








And the next mod for it was.......... thermostatically controlled Mocal oil cooler to solve the problems of high oil temp on the track.




Well I fitted the oil cooler a month later in time for the track at Donny!!




Refurbed my wheels again (1st time was when I 1st fitted them to the rallye)

before


During


After


And also dropped the spare steelie and cage from under the car, now have this

With FCS on the cards and being selected at top25 I got to work on minting the car out.

Got busy underneath, sealed, cleaned and repainted as well as polished the exhaust up.

Before


After



Also done some new rally/race doorcards

Before


After



And done the back to match.


Then came along the.....

Powered by Maltesers, lol. Think we all remember this, tho it didnt last to long before it got binned





And polished up the inlet manifold.

Pic from USC Show and Shine last weekend


Had a busy last few months then.

Done the engine bay out, polished rocker covers, battery cover, fuse box cover and powersteering res cover, painted manifold, braided fuel lines and a general good tidy up under the bonnet.





Then it spat a driveshaft (its probably done half a dozen lol)



Put a new gearbox and clutch along with group N engine mounts, engine chocks and a group A lower mount, turns out the reason for the bust driveshafts was a shot top mount



Then it was looking something like this

Then along came the cage

Was just placed in the car to get it home, got it cheap from up in scotland, was worth the drive for some epic roads





And some of the brakets I made up ready to fit it



Then spent a saturday modding it and fitting it





All in and painted up









Managed to test it out with a few sessions at Donny, was surprised how much difference it makes in stiffening up the whole car.









Also sprayed up all the interior floor





Decided to change teh track rims (and one I use as a spare) to white

Rubbed down ready





Primed



Layering the coats on



Final coat



And the finished article with laquered finish



Repaired the drivers seat with a pair of new patches (not the best but 100 times better than before)

Before



After



And tonight, fitted the new wing, gonna need to give the car a good going over to get the colours matching lol.





Rust on the old copy panel



Original pug panel now fitted
