The dump valve had completely oxidised so I felt that it wanted a nice polish. Yeah it took a while and sorts the rest of the bay out. Still much work to do.

This was when he purchased it.

Between me and you guys, he kinda ruined it. This was a really sweet EP back in 2008.

Compared to what he done to it a year later!

Cheap. It's my first car and it was like £800. My brother went from paying £500 for his EP3 Type R to £220 for this EP :D

Cheap tax, cheap fuel as well :D It's good on fuel....for a turbo car lol. But I haven't seen one EP82/91 that hasn't got their fair share of problems mate. If you're not prepared to work on it then I'd get a modern car lol. Even my brothers has got issues that we've had to sort out. It's the nature of these cars I'm afraid.

Small update.

 

So I've had these since christmas just haven't been able to find time to fit it all with everything else that has been going on.

 

Today I just got sick and tired of looking at the gauges on my window sill and not in the car so today I've gone about fitting them.

These are not the cheaper, mechanical, gauges that you can buy. Instead of piping in the feed from the turbo into the ****pit you take your readings inside the engine bay, and feed an electronic signal back to the gauge. Because of this it is a little more expensive to purchase, but only the best will suffice :D

 

I custom fabriacated a little bracket for it to perch from :D
