Just relised its been 10 months since i started this thread, just read the first page where i was talking to ross. i was a naive prick hahaha
glad im actually working in the motor trade now as i've learnt and understood so much over the past 2 months than i ever did in the 3 years playing around with 106's.
Right some updates for you that are interested.
New wheels.
how the garage stands at the minute
god rid of that Mk1 saxo that was rotten on my driveway, its left some nice oily marks here but im going to get a steam cleaner and some hard floor cleaner on it soon, any suggestions?
Just an indication as to where the new wastegate flange will be re-welded to. i've spoken to GR performance who are very local to me and they are happy to sort out the wastegate job and weld the cheese slice part of metal onto the turbo side to make the angle correct. and for a very reasonable price.
and then i stripped all the paint off my block because i didnt like it
In other news, i took the long gear linkage, and front ARB off the Mk1 before i sold it and will be fitting those to the 106 tomorrow since i painted them tonight with some hammerite to keep them fresher. i have solid gti arb polybushes so they will go on at the same time and i can link up all my droplinks.
Block will be going silver as i saw a picture on a vauxhall forum i use of some paint one lad used and it worked brilliantly so ive oredered a tin and hopefully will be using it on my head, block and box. then the brembos because i cant have red brembos behind green wheels!
thats all for now maybe some updates tomorrow.
oh and the cars having a side exit exhaust...
Linear Mode
