Well it took 3 men a hammer a sledge hammer screw driver a vice 3 cans of wd daftly and bravley some heat and a large set of Stilsons to move the last locking colar thingy on the rear coilover and it has moved but not all the way think the threads fook so will have to set the ride height to the height the coilovers will go which isnt were i want it gutted but thats how its going to have to be untill i can buy the Driftworks Control System Coilovers i want.

Still cant bleed the bloody brakes though really struggling with them any ideas peps.

Well after much effort i cant get 1 rear coilover to go as low as i want it its stuck solid so have spent the day setting a reasonable ride hight wanted it lower but if i am honest i'd never be able to drive it propley with the crapy roads round here (so glad i pay road tex sor such smooth driving surfaces)

Also changed the plugs and put the bodywork back together the rear bumpers bugger but it will do for now.

Random picture whoring

Have sorted something out and looks like i will have some nice
wheels for it soon.

Happy with how the car looks just need it mot'd o i can get back the pod

Get another brake fluid res cap, and modify it to fit the pressure bleeder!

(Cut a hole and fit the pressure pipe with a bung / seal with silicone....)

Yes mate smile

Not sure if the seal is brilliant on it, but it will stop fluid splashing out. If your seal is better you could modify yours and use this on the car once bled up....

tried bleeding it again with the pressure bleeder but yet again its not holding pressure.

I cant bleed it alone the old fashioned way.

FOOKIN sick of this now so going to save and get it done by a garage who can sort it really dont care how long it takes as i have head enough fooking about with it.

On the plus point the wifes bought me wheels for my birthday YAAY
