[Ads]

No bother mate just worth a try lol I don't blame ya as it looks stunning. The transformation from when you got to now is awesome.

[Gray16v]

How you have the car is spot on, looks better with the wheels now rather than the turbo rims, Turbo rims make it look a bit bland in comparison IMHO.

[SteLowis]

Awsum fella. Really nice. I'm at standard oem fella but them wheels suit it down to the ground.

[Stoater85]

[Stoater85]

Yea they are bud. Did i say they were something else earlier in the thread or something?

[humbucker]

[Stoater85]

No not at all, I was just asking!

errr looks like you took that the wrong way, i just meant have i said something daft earlier in the thread thats all.

[Stoater85]

Done some carbon wrapping. And yea i know the kerb light is on wrong, now sorted. I have also died the parcel shelf black will post pic later when at the cav. Also post more pics of door cards.

Next up tomorrow is a really good engine tidy. Potentially paint the inlet to get it presentable, always looks so dirty.

That carbon wrapping looks really good against the dark door panels Alan

yea bud its pretty tricky! lol cheers.

[Stoater85]

well as the weather was good decided to do cam cover gaskets and plugs.

tools for the job


a bit of improvised shelter should it rain, which it didn't. wtf!


off with the engine cover and some labeling to mitigate the risk of wrong plug order and subsequent misfire after building everything back up! yes i have done it before!


off with the cam covers


i fitted oe elring gaskets and o-rings, plus Bosch super 4 plugs.

finished and was taken for a tanking down fifes finest back roads.

[Stoater85]

[TurboDan]

Still love the car, that end pic is great

[Stoater85]

[Stoater85]

[TurboDan]

Can't believe youve sold it!

The golf looks cool though

Always amazes me how people stick around on the forums after they have moved on from their cavalier. We must be irresistible, lol
