i cut a load of metal out of the side rad mount to make changine fan belts easier, otherwise you have to go through everything all over again everytime you service it :( I wish i had done that now Well today i have been busy again. The seat is in and I have been making the megajolt loom's and fitting them. I got my new denso working that I got off matty and got my new sexy thermostat in. Also on the list of stuff to fit was the weber tps ,edis, make a coil bracket , sort the twin throttle cables out and get the loom in. Now I will let the pics do the chating.

Nice work mate, how much of a job was it? It was a bit of a f##k about as the rear bulkhead keep getting in the way, also welding inside the boot is not much fun  but i only had 1 fire.
I need to start the other side tomorrow and piss about with a brace bar. I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf
