savage bulldogs Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 majik it's by no means show standard just a hobby that keeps me out of the pub at weekends . being a 21yr old car it's got it's fair share of carpark scars and it's a daily, so normally full of sweet wrappers/mud . It wasn't to hard to flip the inlet as a lot of v1 to v4 components are compatible . It's a v1 running a v3 tps, v3 icv and throttle body I simplified the vac /intake pipework buy deleting the fuel vapor lines , purge valve and charcoal cannister . If you fit Parallel braided fuel lines and billet rails you normally remove those anyway [emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R4WLV Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 And stickerbombed my fuse box. I'll see how it lasts for a couple of weeks, then I might do the alternator cover and air snorkel. Can the silicone hoses be used for the coolant lines aswell (the thin hoses from the radiator to the overflow bottle etc) or do I need better quality hoses for these? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R4WLV Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Maybe should have looked first, just bought 2 metres of 3mm id hose, as far as I can see now, I only need about 12 inches ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusebox.jpg Can the silicone hoses be used for the coolant lines aswell (the thin hoses from the radiator to the overflow bottle etc) or do I need better quality hoses for these? most silicone hoses come in 2 grades solid rubber walled for vacuum lines and mesh reinforced for coolant and boost. although some companies offer another grade for oil and petrol, if it's just a simple straight length or single bend have a look on the Auto Silicone Hoses website (dam site cheaper than samco) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4WLV Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Cheers. The ones I have got are from ASH off the bay. I need to check what grade they are when they come then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfnick Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Not today but on Wednesday I had my up-pipe heat wrapped. Had the heat shield removed a few months ago and due to the location of the up pipe (close to cylinder 3) decided it was best not to leave it kicking all it's heat out onto the engine and in the engine bay. Looked one hell of a job to get to, thank god I got SSS to do it for me. Found my downpipe had no gasket between it and the turbo too. Thought it sounded a tiny bit "blowy" at low revs. Turns out it was this. Also feels slightly sharper now too. Win, win :) Today I've just dropped it off to get my rear arch sorted. Hope the result is good, I know the paint isn't easy to match on these especially at almost 12 years old.... Fingers crossed. Still, better than letting the rust spread. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
