removed sump guard (came with car) as I read they're pretty redundant for road use and can cause over-heating

 

Any ideas for 'up-cycling'.?

Went to my granddads and he made me some brass knobs using his lathe for me to use with my seat locking mechanism. Then I made some changes and fitted my seats which now lock down (so it's mot worthy) then I fitted my new water hose which split last week and now I just need a new jubilee clip.

Cam.

Had a megajolt fitted, unfortunately the trigger wheel was machined wrong (Unnoticeable till it's running) had to order a new one but the mini did live briefly after 6 months of nothingness.

Where did you get the megajolt from?
