Oh crap yea forgot to mention that lol

made that PAS cooler and stuff and got brakets made up to fit it, but once we jacked it up we soon found out it already had a PAS cooler on running along the cradle itself, so instead of using that big copper piping im going to get some a tad thicker then brake pipes and make as much surface area as possible and use existing brackets

will be spraying some wheels tomorrow too

Started 1300 today, decided to do my brakes properly, handbrake etc etc,

started all nice and was going taking off the handbrake cable and listening to Radio 1 (which rules lol) come to fitting the new one was a peice of piss too until i went to put the cer clip bolt through which didnt want to go through because of prop and exhaust and not much room to get hands in, but 4 hours later i eventually did, then got the new calipers on and stuff and all is working great

all i need to do now is adjust the handbrake

i really wanted to get them done and viscus off but like i said it took all day just to get the cable on


more work will be done during the week and hopefully going to fail at getting licence next week lol

Pull your finger out bud. Got the full rear end fitted into mine in a day, lol.
See ya next week, not driving though. Doing the practice the week after.

You need a Granada diff. one from a 2.0. There bolt on shafts with open diff.
