itekdu · 17th October 2006, 05:03 PM

cheers... bit of a misson so far, but should be pretty cool

itekdu · 20th December 2006, 03:36 PM

Getting ready to lift the engine now, got all the fluids out (Oil, 'box and coolant) and have ALL the engine unplugged

Now comes the hard part!

I wouldnt have a clue aye, apparently if you change the computer its impossible to get the P/S to work, which is a bit :cry: but wouldnt have thought obd2-obd1 should hurt it...

itekdu · 22nd December 2006, 06:35 PM

itekdu · 24th December 2006, 03:28 PM

Here's some more pics, this is as far as I've got...

total cunt of a job. I wouldn't recommend taking the dash out of a car like this unless you REALLY have to!!

Macro · 24th December 2006, 03:35 PM

At least you got lots of room in the engine bay to slot the snail in

Can't wait to see how this turns out

dee.eph · 25th December 2006, 09:53 AM

wow 8O wouldn't like to take that mess on any day soon.

hope this turns out how you planned.

cheers for the updates, following em with interest.
