Looking good there man!!!

Much respect to SX owners like yourself and many others here that do most of the work yourselves. It really puts guys like me too shame....

I just dont have the time and the patience to take on projects like this sometimes. Maybe it's also due to the fact that I dont have a garage to work in, or maybe I'm just making up excuses... maybe???? :oops:

Keep up the the good work and the updates thereof.

lol... You also tend to forget that my knowledge of anything mechanical is rather scary... I normally check, double check and then check for fun... and it's still a f***-up...

As an example, my white SX has been standing since before Easter weekend and it didnt wanna start, fiddled with the electrics, did so many checks all over and it still didn't fireup...

I just gave up... until last week when I thought to myself, why not start with the simple thing first, and low and behold she started... I was even contemplating setting the car alight and claiming from the insurance... NOT!

I felt like a royal d**khead... It took me three months of procrastination and laziness, to get that car started...

As stated in previous post, big up to u and the other okes that do the work u do...

Test fitted, will have to change dogrees on wastegate pipe, won't be able to get screemer on or off, the whole point was to be able to take the wastegate off with the manifold, seems that will not happen, the wastegate will always be in the way of loosening the mani.

ABS is out!!!!
