I could easily fetch more than you're paying for it in bits.... And you know it ;)


Had a bit more time on it earlier on this evening.
Got it in the air on axle stands, driveshafts out and box oil drained, exhaust downpipe off the manifold(cant remove it off the system end as the bolt has bent, so wont undo.... :roll: ), bottom arms undone, most of the bay loom unplugged.
The front coilovers ive already removed, they are sound :)

Now ive got the car in the air and the downpipe bent down out the way i should be able swap the sump over, so think i'll make that 1st job tomorrow morning.
Hoping to get front brakes off tomorrow, and the engine out in the morning. Got somewhere to be in the afternoon, getting ready for Fri night :cool:

TBH it wont take long to strip at all, once engines out, its just the rear suspension, fuel tank and exhaust left for mechanicals. Then i'll start on the interior.


And a saloon? BEHAVE lol lol lol

Had an early start this morning.
Chucked the new sump on(which is also fc*ked as the threads on the sump hole are very weak, but luckily it holds oil. Cheers CorsaSport user :roll:

Cant keep a small block down :D, fired up first go, oil light went straight out, result lol lol Vids to follow

Couldnt believe how easy the engine/box comes out without a slam fitted
Straight up and forward
