New o2 sensor and fuel filter helped. The fuel filter was full of crap and the o2 sensor was a bit on the not looking ever to have been replaced side of new so the butt dyno has claimed an increase in hp, now to see if it improves economy and drivability as well.
ECU EPROM due before end of month also.
Looks like you're having a lot of fun with this car!
I love the fact such a cheap car, with relatively low performance, can give so much reward. All the small things that make up the whole really count in this build.Quote:

If I could find one I would probably grab it and follow your lead
Brakes are on. HE'LL braided lines, grooved discs and mintex pads.
Rear suspension is in, front struts need some new bits before bolting them all back in tomorrow! Yippee!

Cup kit fitted. Managed to snag the front lip already.
Brakes certainly bedded in but a wheel alignment is required.
