I'm going home this Friday evening which just happens to be my birthday which means i can finally get insured on this beast! GET IN!
Saturday could be interesting for a couple of reasons though:
A) Friday night will be very messy
B) I need to do a few bits to get the car ready for an MOT on Monday morning
This will include:
- New discs all round and rear pads (i could get my dad's mate to skim them all but they will need replacing soon anyway so might aswell do it all now)
- Bleed the brakes
- Get 2 new tyres as they are a bit borderline on the edges
- Get a new battery as the car has been stood for a while and the battery was weak when i got the car anyway
- Get some washers and nuts to fit the rear Koni's and fit all of the Koni's to the car
I also have to put these items on the car at some point:
- gear linkage repair kit
- a new exhaust rubber
- poly steering rack bushes
- smoked side repeaters on
- k&n panel filter in and maybe have a play around with a drill and a spare airbox
- cd headunit, although i may leave the tape player in and use an adapter thingy with my ipod
So it should be a very busy weekend for me!
I don't even want to think about what i'm going to have to do Monday afternoon, as even though it has no rust, its had recent brake and fuel lines fitted, new(ish) shocks, brakes will be sorted and all electrics work; i'm sure it will find a way of failing!
Also, at some point over easter (i have 2 weeks off) i want to do an oil and filter change, fan belt and am thinking it would be wise to do the cam belt too just for peace of mind. Going to give the "Rubjonny how to tune your digi" a go too. I also need to revise for end of year exams though
I'll let you know how i get on this time next week.
