Well not had much time today so bushes are not even started so that will get started next weekend or towards the end of this week :), and hopefully get rarb done too :)

But since i cant sit on my ass for more than 5 mins i decided to remove my carbon canister. Left the connector plugged in to save eml coming on. Yesterday done battery relocation so bay is beginning to look a bit tidier now :)

Beginning to feel happy with it haha

Now im road legal. Taxed today. Really happy but want to keep working on it over time.

This weekend my plans are
Fit rear bushes (advisory on mot)
Fit rear arb
And a hell of a good clean inside and out

Got a new electronic boost gauge today so will get that fitted some night or weekend

Glad youve decided to keep it, these mk3's are dying off more and more eh
Further plans? Other than the engine build? Have you decided what pistons to go for?

Cheers bud, gonna be getting a colour change very soon, so long as i can save up the money :)
Not much been going on lately, but slowly sorting all the issues including sheared drive shaft bolts. And also researching different things for more but safe power for when everything is running smoother. Got a lot of plans in mind

Decided to check my catch can, do an oil and filter change and give it a bit of a check over at the weekend.
My turbo oil feed gasket is leaking quite bad so order a couple to change over and a spare
Loads of gunky mayo in fittings of catch can
And found a funky red coloured watery liquid in catch can when i emptied it

Anyone tell me what may cause that to look like it does because im certain i never put that in my engine haha

So new gasket should be here in next couple of days, oil and filter change will be done at the same time, and will be changing the catch can out for my new better one aswell.
Also ordering a new air filter as mine looks a bit sh*tty
