Oz!

Havent managed to get the brake lines on yet.

Will be doing them soon and also service and paint the calipers while i,m at it.

I also purchased new complete suspension rubbers for the rear and plan to do those also.(y)

I,ll get some pics up when i,m done and also get some pics of the dual fans and other mod's recently added. :)
 
Looking forward to the 11th!! Rogue, you manning the BBQ??

And the rest of you, if you are just thinking about coming along there will be no pressure to spend money on mods - it would be great to see if we could top to 10 cars we managed to get at Nottingham! (y)

:) Been a busy B today. :D

Got her down to my mates garage and fitted the new goodridge stainless steel brake hoses.
We removed the old rubber hoses which just screw off with the correct spanner.

Replaced with new hoses and a good bleed and refit with new DOT 5.1 high performance brake fluid.

An easy enough mod to do, once up on a ramp.

A little messy but a good jet wash afterwards sorts that out.



A few pics before and afterwards.

Some more pics of the new lines, and i also changed all the rear suspension rubber mounts and bump stops.

These i purchased a long time ago, just never got round to fitting them when i first fitted the suspension springs as i was waiting for additional rubbers to come.

You're missing the Infinity 6010 CS speaker upgread......... ;)

What are these like. The sound in my B is generally good. I,m not sure if they have been changed at some point, but i have a nice bass, good mid and the highs from the tweeters is pleasing.

Would be curious to hear the infinitys, i do have some small ones fitted in my van. Not mega base from a 4inch but sweet sounding highs. :D
 
Does anyone here have a super sprint manifold or system on there B, and does it make a difference.

Or if not have you seen or heard their systems.

I want to use their manifold but keep my DTR rear silencer.

Was wondering if the super sprint is better or same as DTR's

Any info on a reasonably priced sports CAT would be handy too. (y)
