Definitely different to mine, the right hand O2 sensor has more slack in the cable, assuming they're all the same length. Noel Edmonds would love your engine compartment.

Excellent thread. Thanks for posting such detail. Hoping you having many fun miles in her

ilovejapcrap


ilovejapcrap

so

I've actually done some miles:

around 50 so far !!





few little gremlins to iron out, may have a slightly duff bat, bad earth or alternator as now and again I'm getting some red lights flashing up! going to have a look on sunday.

Also the new clutch thrust bearing is STILL squeeling, driving me mad! so maybe taking the box back out :(

ilovejapcrap

little update kids.

Basically been driving it, put around 300 miles on to date.

friend has a new o2 sensor I'm picking up to stick in bank 2 no.1

then oil change ahead !

oh and a good jet wash to get the salt off it !

300 miles? Time to relax then [emoji847]
