        The gauges? thanks!

        I dont like the wires all stuffed behind the box, but you can't see them from the drivers seat anyway

          slowly tidying, and sorting, and throwing out!



          Hopefully the new rear discs arrive soon, as the rear wheel bearings appear to have some play...

          Not sure about tackling the MegaSquirt install juuust yet!

            Still no rear discs!

            I'll ask here, although I don't think I'll get any replies, but..

            Is there a good place to start when wiring in a MegaSquirt?

            I'm replacing all the engine wiring...

            Removing the AFM and knock controller, as well as the injector resistor pack.

            But I'd also like to add a new fuse/relay box, relocating the original relays under the bonnet...

            I'm thinking I might need to completely remove the engine again :/

              why would you need to remove the engine for a new wiring harness?

              you should be able to source out any kind of new plug(s) AUS is lucky enough to replicate just about every OEM auto plug & sell them along with terminals (something we can't get easily in yankland)

                I probably should do some work on this... its just been left sitting, unloved... but I did start it the other day!

                Might try to get the replacement rear hubs assembled today with new bearings and new slotted and dimpled rotors, even if I dont get them onto the car

                Possibly found another 3 speed auto that I can modify, or get modified, to better work with the turbo engine, then just swap them over

                  Bolted these together today, things were made so much easier with the bearing cup and wheel studs thanks to the press I bought a few years ago.

                  Decided to reuse the old studs, as they looked ok, plus its Sunday and no one that sells them is open.... plus I was being a tight a$$ :D Although, I need new hub nuts anyway!





                  :D

                      I've just been told that I wont be able to buy new rear hub nuts? maybe genuine, but they're probably obsolete... ah... really?

                        Brakes done! sorry, no pics...





                        I really need to get onto the megasquirt ecu, as the stock loom has a broken wire or two, to the knock controller...

                            The car has no registration, so it hasn't been driven with the new brakes :p
