NES138 room for improvement

[nes138]

As stated I used the complete wire harness from the VT. I layed it on the car and hooked up the mode switch to confirm the security would disable when unlocking the central locking.

As you can see the dash area has bugger all room. I have lost my glovebox area to fit the aircon unit

gloveboxes are overrated anyway.


i mean: have you ever actually met anyone that stores their gloves in there?

good one ari -I like that,can I use it-lol

 

[ari666]

certainly

fyi my "glovebox" now homes my stereo. kinda sucks when you wanna store papers and whatnot as the inside of my car is a tornado when the windows are open

The d!ckhead that shorten the axles in the VS diff set it up for drum brakes and also left them 6mm too long. Apparently Pro Mac in Newcastle now shut and a lot of customers unhappy.

I also bought a flaring tool and made my own brake lines.

Custom brackets cut on water jet from 12mm aluminium hold the new steel fuel lines

Speaking of brakes the front calipers hit the crossmember and I changed the end to suit.
PS this is only test fit- crossmember has to come out to get cleaned and painted.

of all jobs, i rate flaring brake hose as my top 10 most hated.

 

[nes138]

PS I have straightened the lines since then

Yeah I didn't mind it. Here is my set
And the result

And just for interests sakes here is a double and a single flare
