not much of an update since ive been hunting for a cam pulley, finally got 1 from a company in bristol who has 10
got it for £15 posted, theres plenty 2.0 8v mk3 cav engines floating about but ive since found mines is from a mk2 cav and has a different pulley than the mk3
i have all the megajolt wired up, just need to fit the battery and connect up the live and thats ready to go
fuel pumps fitted to the side of the spare wheel well above the axlewith a hole drilled and grommeted to feed the wires into the car, i used a 20mm piece of rubber inbetween the pump and the chassis to keep the noise down as it seems pretty noisy but thats with no fuel going through it. its a facet solid state fuel pump im using along with a filter king regulator
when i was fiddling about with the wiring undert the dash today i noticed a bit rust under the carpet on the drivers side beside the sill, my screwdriver when through it
its right about the outrigger which isnt too good on its own so im gonna cut the old outrigger out and make a new one from some 2mm sheet
all i can do now is wait on the cam pulley arriving get it fitted torque up the top and bottom pulley bolts
still on the source for a middle silencer though that aint gonna cost me through the roof
Did your shafts arrive bud, I ran the pump inside the car on a mount with a bit ofrubber around it
yeah they did mate cheers, thier fitted now
my spare wheel is in the way or i would have mounted it inside
well seeing as im bored today i took the carpet out the car and ripped the foam crap out as it was absolutely disgusting and full of rusty coloured crap
dont think ill be putting that back in, i wire wheeled any rusty bit and painted with some white gloss
just got a bit welding to do on the outriggers as said before
i also managed to get a stainless silencer made for me from mij exhausts
well i managed to get a price from mij exhausts who sell on ebay and have thier own website etc
£62 delivered which im happy about
it will be 4" round diameter box 24" long and with each end having 2" of pipe, 1 end being 2" and the other 1.75"
bit of a dilemna, my car is insured as a 1.4 atm its not being drive atm as its not finished
as you know ive fitted a 20seh and sky have quoted me an extra £13 a month to change to a 2.0
now heres the thing, i turn 25 at the start of january so my insurance should come down a fair bit
so i keep the car off the road untill then and wait till im 25 and change the insurance or just change it now???????
i would wait
yeah im kinda tempted to wait, i have the use of my mums car atm but i dunno
i really wanna drive it
not worth driving it in the winter tbh. snow/ice/grit on roads and folk that cant drive
well my insurance comes out on the 26th ill give them a phone tomorrow and see what they say
ill see if they can alter my details like d.o.b etc and get a quote and if its quite a lot ill leave it but if not ill just change it over
