Started to heap wrap the Toyo Sports manifold but ran out of heat wrap...................... DOH.

[N0ddie]

Thats a lot of heat wrap short

Yeah the rest of the wrap is on the decat.

140Nm mate.

Thought as much. Mine were installed last weekend and I just wanted to recheck they were still tight. I wasn't 100% sure they were to be torqued to the same as the wheel bolts but they obviously are.

 

[N0ddie]

Not got yer Speedlines on yet?

 

[Phil555]

Not got yer Speedlines on yet?

Not yet buddy. Get the salt off the roads and they’ll be on. Although they way it’s going the salt might be back on the roads by the time we get back out. Take care mate and stay safe.

I was gonna take the AG to work this week as it's to be nice but roads are horrible)salty/greasy first thing so thought better of it.

Not gonna slave for a couple of hours getting the car mint/cleaned/spotless only to ruin it in minutes on the run to work.

Yeah I'm like that.

Running mine as a daily at the minute too. It does have a good ceramic costing on though so washing is easy.

 

[Phil555]

Few new parts arrived.

YSR Coilover kit.



Sabelt RS steering wheel from Volantech.

Let us know your thoughts on the coilovers when possible. They seem like ridiculously good value for money.

Will do mate.

What do you do about the airbag light?

 

[Phil555]

What do you do about the airbag light?

You get one resistor (3.3ohm I think) with the kit but you need two. These is worth a try first but don’t always work.
if the resistors don’t work then the light will need to be cancelled out using CLIP.
