You would of thought so bud ? Guess you go fully anticlockwise and see if the fluid comes out easier than fully clockwise

hopefully I wont have to bleed them as I don't have much ap racing fluid left, if they are bled surely opening the bias up will just restrict it less?
If not it looks like ill be ordering another bottle of fluid
Must be £500 worth of oil in this bloody car now lol

Nah I doubt you'll have to re bleed if you have had no air coming out the nipples already. Yeah wind it out anti clockwise.

Turned the bias valve and the rears now lock Smile think it was set up but will now need to adjust it again when I get the car up and running.

Still waiting for my oil coolers and compressor housing to come back so did a few little jobs.

Got my hands on some Kevlar and heat proof hose so fitted that to the fuel lines where they go behind the manifold heat shield, will also stop the braided lines chafing


All my silicon hoses I ordered turned up so I sorted out the oil catch tank

And also did the power steering and filled it with oil


I have ordered an6 Banjo's and bolts for the supercharger, once iv got it all back together I can then make the lines for it

Will get all my bits back by Monday so the fun can then begin Smile.
Will also get my bumpers eyc from being painted, so next week should be a good week for progress

Just got back from a weekend away and was surprised to find a parcel from pro alloy Smile
Matching oil coolers to go with the intercooler and rad and a stealthy looking compressor housing


Iv got to get a new inlet manifold gasket tomorrow and pick my bumpers etc from my mate as they are now painted Smile
Can't wait to get it all back together now!

On a bad note I took my fuel cap to get anodized as I did have it powdercoated but it was to thick and wouldn't close...
so I went to pick up the alloy fuel cap to only arrive to bad news Sad it appears the hibdge pin and locking stud was not alloy but not steel, it was magnesium and disintegrated during the dipping process so now I have no fuel cap at all Sad

Looking good, the blue bodywork and the white engine bay with all the shiny blue silicon and stainless steel braid goes together well. Are you making the diffuser?.

GSF couldnt source me an inlet gasket the other day. There are some on ebay but they seem expensive for what is essentially a piece of paper with some holes in it. (The inner yorkshire must be coming out Laugh)

Can't immagine why they would say it's NLA if it isnt ?!? Gave Rich the part number that I tried to get and its the correct one! Rich sorted me one out anyway so it's all good!

I will be making the diffuser my self but it's right at the bottom of the list of things to do, once it's made I might get the tail pipe changed so it sits higher up in the cut out as it looks a bit odd sitting so low
