Waterpump update

 Hey guys,

barely have time to update my blog but here we go :)

So as per last post, I was finally able to get off the pulley to reach the waterpump.
I took of the fan before violently using the crowbar, since it was completly stuck on it.
looked like this before:



 With some help of a friend, we got it off :).

Since I had to wait for the thermostat and belt until today, the waterpump+ the rest hasnt been replaced yet. That will happen tomorrow though :)

I also spent a lil bit of time on my indicators and corner lights. To treat them with a bit of love and polish to make them look cleaner again :)

Looks like this:






Tomorrow I will also do a few interior changes, stay tuned for that :D

So in my last post I wrote.....and did:

So the plan is: 
Getting the fan removed and replace the waterpump (which was the original task)
get seat rails for the Sparco seats   (got only one though)
put in the carpet and sort interior the way I like it (tomorrow)
Sort the issue with the left wheel (bit tucked in) and adjust the coilovers to have her nice and ready for NCT (MOT) in February.



Not too bad for now....cant wait for tomorrow now :)

More parts!

Hi everyone :)

i hope you had a good start into the new year?!

Mine certanly started awesome and continues to be good so far. But its only January, so lets have a look what I got.

In the meantime I received a few bits and pieces but I havent made a pic for every item/part.
However, this picture I can show you :) 


My brand new Gktech fan which should help keeping the engine nice and cool.
I still havent managed to get the old fan off, it is truly an act of violance by now haha.
I shall try my luck during the week again.

I as well got a brand new front bumper last month, which I wont show you yet because it will be something unusual and I cant wait to see if it will look as good as I picture it in my head :)

So the plan is: 
Getting the fan removed and replace the waterpump (which was the original task)
get seat rails for the Sparco seats 
put in the carpet and sort interior the way I like it
Sort the issue with the left wheel (bit tucked in) and adjust the coilovers to have her nice and ready for NCT (MOT) in February.


More pictures and updates soon :)
