I havent had any time off yet this year. Could do with a break from work tbh. Though that doesnt really happen in my line of work. I have to do all the work in adavance for the time I'm off. So end up being stressed as a coont before I go, meaning I NEED the time off even more so.
Just bought some batteries for my digi-cam anyhow. Progress pics to follow.
nice work mate ive gone the same way with my brake servo
how did you go about brake hoses thats how far ive got an got put off
Brake lines will be happening any day now. Just ordered the braided flexi's & will set about running copper lines when they arrive. I threw out all my old hoses & pipes (doh) so dont have the fittings etc to use as a reference.
Only jobs I sorted over the weekend was a little more painting of the welded areas & attached the alternator & starter trigger wires etc at the back of the engine block, aswell as some finalising of my alternator tension adjuster.
[edit] the cheapskate HYUNDAI batteries I bought at the 'pound shop' are good for approx 2 digi-pics per pair! How laughable is that?
I'm really not suprised!Quote:

Couple weeks no doubt.
Awesome, March PNG meet? gooo on
Would never have the money to tax, MOT or insure it sadly.
Those are the issues I'll have to look into after its built. MOT it & then see where I'm going froim there.

Right:
Rear Disc/Drum to Axle x2- Both ends M10 unions
Nearside Rear line- One M10 Union, One M12 union(MC end)
Offside Rear Line- Both ends M10 unions
Nearside Front Line- Both ends m10 unions
Offside Front Line- One M10 Union, One M12 union(MC end)
So you need 10 M10 unions, and 2 M12 unions by my calculations.
Bear in mind i have the standard nova MC etc, so i dont know if the corsa mc has the same size unions, i assume so tho.
Cheers Adam. Great help.
The Goodridge lines will be here tomorrow (I'm told), ''overnight parts from Japan'' LOL.
Just nipped out & had a new power loom made up at THE BATTERY CENTRE* for the alternator & starter feed as I butchered it drilling one of the terminals out to 8mm.
* THE BATTERY CENTRE is a fantastic little shop in my town that sort out all matter of electrical gremlins, rebuild alternators & starters etc & generally do car electrics. Often for pence! I love them.
