Yup i've had the time to do some work on the old girl :) i NEED to get her up and running in the next few months!

 

Fitted the HKS Oil Filter Relocator and Aux Belt

But then had to move it due to the sheer size of these Kenlowe's :)

So the pipes that i'de cut for the Engine to Filter were perfect size from Filter to Cooler :) So mocked up the Cooler position after removing the washer bottle. They will be well out of the way of the AntiRoll bar as soon as they're secured to chassis leg

Then had the pleasure of repositioning the fusebox. So after removing the ABS, the fusebox, PAS Resevoir and Fuel Pressure Reg can go nicelly out of the way in that corner. Also been given a battery cable off a 1 Series in work that was going to scrap. That will get used as a battery to boot conversion. So used a grommet under ABS unit and ran under the Car to the boot

Engine loom has more work than i thought, i'm working through it slowly. Just waiting for my new injectors to come this week and i can crack on

 

Also started doing the sound deadning. £100's worth of sound proofing sheets and i may need more :O

 

She now has new brakes all round. OEM Discs and Portfield Racing Pads

 

Been busy making 1 piece intercooler pipes and making a mid section

 

Whifbitz 4" Stainless System

Well she turns over and oil pressure light goes out, no leaks on cranking :)

 

But she wont fire up :( no spark no fuel pump prime. I've got Jamie's old PnP Loom, and ive tried my best to match my new sensors to what it had wired up previously. I'm going to tidy up to ecu connector and start again

 

No pics im afraid

 

BUT A MASSIVE UPDATE (it is for me anyway :))

Bit of an update on the poor thing! She's going back in the bodyshop soon, i've decided to go back to Astral Black! No kit, just lip and possibly keep the TRD Wing. Havnt had time or money to do any more work on it recently, due to house purchase and busy in work! But hopefully 2015 will be a good year :thumbs:
