Finally pics have uploaded

Mint Vt passenger seat, i dropped off my Recaro to be re-trimmed so should hopefully get that back in a few weeks or so

Image


So i had a few problems today first off the gearstick and clutch were wrong as i had over adjusted the clutch cable :oops: as i couldnt remember how it felt as its been so long

Anyway took it round tothe local garage and sorted that out then connected up all the pipes for the master cylinder but had to change a bolt on one of the pipes as the thread had gone so that took alot longer than first thought.

Image

Then started to bleed the brakes, snap-on jacks are awesome took seconds to have the car up in the air 8)

We are going to have to have another look at them though as the pedal has sunk to the floor again so thinking maybe a leaky cylinder in the drums ?

Image

But still took it for a blast :twisted: First time i have ever really opened up the D15 and its bloody quick, the guys atthe garage were suprised by it aswell and it sounds insane :twisted: :twisted:

A bit of pic whoring at the end of the day
