ts for my Megasquirt ecu MS2 to MS3 upgrade I have planned (if I get the bloody time) its so I can fire the fuel inj's in sequence rather than 4 at a time like the standard Lucas system for improved low speed drive-ability and control and more complexity

Go Simon, love this and I'm super keen to hear the results

Stared at this for a few minutes thinking I really must make a start... then went down the pub to watch the rugby

fitted the new steering rack. now just need to refit the new diff and then install the new seats this weekend

Are these the Reverie Carbon seats? Are they measured prior so you can set how reclined you would like them etc?

Look great!

Well spotted, a 40 something or other - needed a new big brass valve thingy and heat exchanger.

Or do you mean it's not his frontsie.....?

Just the old boiler
It's a toss up what I have see most of

Old boilers or plumbers cracks and that one is a meer pretender

Checked my geo today, happy to report no adjustments necessary, that's quite something as I've replaced wheels and tyres,
Farted about with ride height etc but it's at the correct ride height anyway, didn't have time to corner weight it as There's an issue with my mates Mazda race car engine,, mechanics stressing to get it ready for a trackday on Sunday, toe was spot on etc, decided to leave it alone for now. Powers set the car up about 4-5 months ago and the cars been driven to France and virtually used everyday during this wet winter, curbs, pot holes about 4500 miles in total, I'm well chuffed for some strange reason.
Oh yeah it's cos I put the front wishbones and ball joints on,,just good to know there all tickity boo after a couple of years.




Just a gratuitous chance to show off my moment of pleasure one Sunday afternoon after spending a load of time and a couple or three hundred quid,,, re powder coating and partially painting my chassis,, Polish and spit did the rest.

Hiya

Have posted a couple of pic's of work in progress so thought I would post a pic of my car coming out of the paint shop

Last night fitted back light covers and bumper trim, stuck back windscreen seal and rebounded the indicator lens. Today going to cut access holes into the wheel arch to gain access to bulb's and adjusters, the new headlights are further back into the car and unable to reach them through the grill.

The painters have done an amazing job, and am very pleased but terrified now of marking her !!!

[N7GTX]

Looking good there Andy. Don't forget to take lots of pics especially when the top is refurbished/renewed.

It is a problem now having a new paint job l feel your pain, just don't let any poor drivers overtake you giving you lots of frontend stone chips!!!!!!

[ChilliWhizz]

^^^^ totally the above, had the mk3 headlight conversion and a front end respray two or three years ago and was totally paranoid about getting stone chips for months after.... It eventually wore off

[caduceus]

Great to see another Chim getting restored to her former glory. Even better than. Looks great!
