My E85 Project/Progress Thread

[JINGLE]

Good read so far kis, looking forward to the updates!! :fuelfire:

My quad is kinda a "Y" and a "T" combined I suppose? And no battery relocation involved (although the pointless charcoal filter was moved over an inch...... only tonne conpletely taken off at a later date when lowering/wider wheels were fitted)

So it went for MOT yesterday and passed with flying colours. Not a single advisory 8) 
Pretty chuffed with that!

Before it went into the indie I did the following: 
-Crack fog replaced 
-Headlights restored 
-Rear springs replaced 
-Black grill set installed

While it was in with indie and just prior to MOT it had: 
-SMG fluid top up
-Diff oil change
-Gearbox oil change 

Noticed some smoke from drivers side of the engine which I attribute to a shot rocker cover gasket. I did flag this with the indie but while it was in he didn't notice it. Maybe it's my hawk like eyes! I think it's also the start of the issue, so it's not progressed in severity just yet. So that's on my list next (and if that doesn't solve it then I'll be taking it back to him sharpish!) 

I have my new bonnet to wrap and install. Which will happen after I've sorted the rocker cover... watch this space!   :fuelfire:

I dont ACTUALLY hate you
Loving what you are doing and done, looks like a great base car to start with too.
Just i had always had one of those on my 'List of things to do', then told myself to STOP modding.
I think im being bitten by the bug again though. This Forum is bad for my health (and bank balance and relationship lol).

Haha don't worry I know 8)
Cheers buddy. Appreciate it!

Well... The forum is bad for everyone's pocket! Not that I'd change anything, it makes me appreciate the car more, and with that appreciation the driving pleasure is that much sweeter too.

So had an issue with one of my Ali pedals being a tiny bit loose. So took them all off, clean and re applied securely. Much better now!

So had a busy Saturday with BeeEmm, who helped me out with cleaning and detailing the Zed. Very informative and friendly, so had a great day with him and the Zed. As a newbie in detailing, I've definitely learnt how to look after it better! Big thank you to BeeEmm once again, if you've not seen his Coupe already check this link out from earlier this year.
