Its ...Sunday....Its Sunny...so I polished the ZT ...Stainless exhaust next week :D

Swore at it, swore at it again, and then for good measure I swore at it some more.

The front brake caliper has gone kapput. It's not quite seized, but it's not far off it. And boy oh boy am I in the dog house :mad:.

It's the wife's birthday today, so we set off to do several things that she enjoys............ a mile down the road and her day was over :duh: :eek::getmecoat:

Today I thought I'd check the Shannon tube, and this is what I found.

Hi Jim.
Not unusual to find the original Shannon tube in poor condition, but I must confess that is one of the worst I have seen :eek: easy to replace though, good luck Arctic :}

Yes, it was not quite what I expected to find! :D

A new section of ducting is on the way so hopefully it will look better soon.

Cheers,
Jim

looks like an RTA with a Slinky...

I hope that the ducting will be here in a few days time. I'll get some pics taken, and let you know how it goes.

Ordered my ZT a Seat Leon Cupra R front splitter....hopefully a job to do at weekend after the stainless steel Powerflow has been made and fitted.....Pics to follow :drool4::D

today i flushed the cooling system twice to remove all the muck from previous owners (been meaning to do this since i purchased the car), tomorrow i will do it again and then fill with new antifreeze after i replace the lower coolant rail as it appears to be made of solid rust and is leaking! (have had a small loss of coolant for a few months now at least i now know where it is going).

New Tyres
 

Bought two new tyres for the front today, Accelera's at £52.50 each fully fitted including VAT.
They seem to have a very nice sporty tread pattern and tyre wall, if you're into that sort of thing. :D
