    That's a good price. Hope the welds are stainless too. I'm gonna have to travel to get my exhaust done by the looks of it. So far haven't found any locally that do what I want.

    update

    i finally have an update! havnt touched the car in months due to lack of inspiration and money. the car still hadnt fired up correctly and got me down quite a bit. saved up a few pennys to buy myself another ECU, which i thought was causing the problem.

    asked a few regular sellers of LET parts to see what ECU's they had around. one come up trumps with one for £80. knowing they dont come this cheap normally i snapped it up, with the person being well known id have thought when you ask for something they wouldnt be stupid to send an item that people dont want, in this instance a HD ecu.



    most people now this is the one out of three LET ecus that is immobilised. knowing that if the chips were changed it would no longer be immobilised and seeing it had corsa written on the back i was hoping to god they had been changed.

    opened it up and found this......



    more fool the seller i say.

    that night i went and tryed it on the car, to may dismay it didnt start.

    next thing on my list was to change the loom, it had once upon a time had a melt down session. i had checked continuity on the wires and couldnt find a fault, but it only takes on wire for it not to start. contacted cemex off migweb about a loom, have bought parts off him before and he isnt a million miles from me.

    picked up an uncut loom from him yesterday £90



    today i set about removing the old loom, why did i run it into the cabin through the pedal box. took me ages to get it back out. only differance with this loom is that the normal 5pin plug that connects to the mini loom isnt there. there is 2 2 pin plugs which i imagin are for the knock sensor and ICV. anyone confirm this?



    fitted the new one (without putting it in the correct place), messed about a bit and got it to fire up! RESULT!!!



    put it back in the garage untill i got more time to get it all back together.

    more to come.

    it had gone into hiding, i think finding the chips has given me more reason to hurry up and get it on the road.

    Yes.
