When i rob Natwest.. Until then it's the Xe. :)

Been a busy boy today. After our trip to Scotland, the Egg needed some emergency repairs..

First job was to replace inner and outer CV boots.

Which wouldn't of been too bad, but the CV joint decided it was going to rip itself in half.. All the bearings has fallen out. Maybe thats why it didn't feel too good.

Then decided to put new discs and pads on..

Also put in some Hel braided hoses as well.. Yes they are Pink..

Painted the calipers, tie bars and wishbones in Matt black..

Jobs to do:

Do rear braided hoses.. Pink again..

Replace rear shoes.

What make and where from on the discs fella?

Discs are Bremtech £26 each. Got them from Brakes International.

Pads are Ferodo £70 :eek:

They better be good for that money.

nice work rick :thumb:

Cheers Ste.. I'm beginning to like the Egg now.

Kicked its head in around Scotland.. 1700 mile in 5 days.. All at warp speed

Only problem was a dodgy lambda, unplugged it and away i went..

I've even changed my mind about the V6..

lol...

so thought about other tuning, if your not going v6? ie cams and tb's?

I keep thinking about 45's.. But with the price of juice, i don't think so..

See what i can do to eek out a bit more power.

ive got one of these now rick smoke grey corsa gsi red top yours looks good

Bit of an update, changed the 3.0 bar FPR to a standard 2.5.

Found a dodgy earth on the fuel rail. It sorted my EML light out for a couple of weeks, it came on when i accelerated. Not all the time though.

Changed the air filter and connecting pipe to the AFM, now the friggin EML light has started to come on again. It's getting on my tits.

Gonna flash the ECU tomorrow and see.

Lots of parts bought.

Whiteline front & rear ARB.

Powerflex bushes. All round.

Gaz coilovers.

Track rod ends.

Gonna try and do some jobs tomorrow.

Lets hope i remember the sodding camera.

Pics to follow. :thumb:
