Haha it has a baffled decat on it (for now), but this will be getting replaced for a straight through so will be a bit louder. TBH its pretty perfect atm, its at 4k RPM at 70mph and its pretty loud haha. I do motorway mileage mostly so this can get annoying!
Small update...
So over the festive period I didn't get any of the jobs done I wanted to... Got a new OEM thermostat and fitted that, eventually bled fine. I think my idle issue is related to the lambda, but I've not had a chance to check this. That's because last Monday I went for a drive with a mate up the Dukes Pass, and whilst I was up there the handbrake light came on indicating low brake fluid... Got it back to mines and a quick look showed that my front to rear nearside brake line had split. All I'll say is I'm lucky, the Dukes Pass is a very...twisty... road.
Checks before going up:
Whilst we were up there:
@Steve M came round and we made up a quick brake line so I could still drive the car. Looking at the offside line, it needed replaced too. I decided to run the lines inside the car to future proof it, which meant stripping the interior out. On Monday just gone Steve and
@Frodo came round and spent the day helping me run the new lines and routing everything. I've spent the last few days tidying up bits and bobs and getting the brakes finished. Also sealed up a leak whilst it was all apart, its been raining non stop so I'm not sure if the sealant will dry...can only see how it goes.
The new lines came out nicely, will take it out for a blast tomorrow and hopefully wont have to bleed it again!
Also finally fitted the Carbing rear brace
@markp gave me years ago, was a complete pain (thats the nice word...) of a job to cut the plastics neatly. I'll see if I can tidy it up a bit, but will probably get new plastics at some point. Didn't get any pictures of this because it was dark when I finished as usual haha.
Back to uni on Monday so progress will be non-existent, going into my last semester of my degree! See you on the other side
