If you havn't done already while you've got it all up in the air - drill a hole in the back plate near the adjuster enough to fit a flat blade screw driver in. Makes it easier to adjust up the brakes.
Slow progress :eek: I'm trying honest lol
I thought they were auto-adjustment? They're off a '91 car. Wish you'd said before as it's back on the floor, but I'll look at that next time it's up.
Plonked the EPAS steering column and wiring loom in place:

Two M10 bolts holding it in place (I can remake/redrill the part between the bracket and the column to alter height and location of the column):

Double jointed bit aids in straightening it up slightly:

Got my loom temporarily in the bay too:

Still thinking of making the front half of the loom unpluggable inside the car as discussed a few pages back.
Looking good,
Gotta hide that bay loom..... lol
This is going to be far too nice to hammer round a track after!
More slow progress, got the brake lines in the front, just need to find some rubber to cover them for the clips (any suggestions?) and some fittings to hold them against the bulkhead (again, any suggestions?)

could you not use P-clips with the rubber already on the clips?
Could do, there's some lugs on the bulkhead already (seen in the pic) I was hoping to use, like some screw on plastic clips?
I need to put some rubber around it where it goes under the folding tabs too (in the arches)
P clips as plug said, then use plastic nuts from like a corsa B header tank/map sensor.
You can get rubber strips from ebay and the like for the fold bits. Lenghs of it i mean, like 1inch wide.
