A busy weekend. A airbag error was driving me crazy. Finally got the culprit: a airbag strap behind the steering wheel. Got bonus also on a one way down seized window motor. Took it apart, a good contact cleanning and now it's on perfect condition. Happy days.

Putting off installing my boost gauge.

Yellow FR has been super helpful telling me how to do it, but for someone who knows nothing about electrics, finding my earth points and running wires through the bulkhead is just giving me the fear.

Mine is wired into my cigarette lighter and my vac source comes through one of the spare grommets where the loom comes through. It was one of the first things I did and pretty easy to be honest

Earth's are easy... just any thing metal bolted to the main body is an earth point.

Just rang my insurance co as my car is due on the 14th if this month.
50 minutes! into the call theye told me they wont insure my car with a modified exhaust! 46 year old with 15+ year no claims bonus.
Called it an unacceptable modification.

Got to go through the pain barrier of finding another insurer now!

Hi mate did you get the hard coat or normal? I have been looking at these for awhile myself.


I got the hard coat on the front windows. But not the rears. Also had extra quarter light windows done in just black too. So if I go to do an enduro race I can mount a fuel filler in there. But had bithe sides done. For example brands and Donington when you pull in to the pits the garages are on different sides. .
But when done and hopefully proven we will compete in britcar championship too.

That’s high street insurers for you.
Green light are a decent bunch.
Had a claim and they were really good. Silly woman took me to court lying her ass off.
Took a year but they crapped it and pulled out before going into the court room. Wasted everyone’s time including the court.

3”Custom exhaust, FMIC, Bosh 550’s, BC Coilovers, ARB’s +loads more.

You're caught in the algorithm now... Mods equals bad.

Look at it then rolled it back so I could get the bike out. Then spent the day slightly regretting it cuz side winds at Silverstone were... entertaining

Might actually get round to doing some more work to the car soon
