Yeah mate, unfortunately it looks like the thermostat opened and released the old shit into the header tank! Nightmare. I didn't however hose the original shit out so it's my bad. I'll buy some more and get it sorted.

Well, had an epic weekend. Went down to my mates house for a fun weekend of car stuff. Had an awesome Indian too. Yes the chips are mine I then bled my coolant properly so there isn't any air in the system (hopefully) I then washed the car, gf luckily came home at the right time and helped me Polish and wax it. Final results are below. I think I'm all ready for mapping tomorrow. Got a list of figures that my friends think it's going to make! I'm too excited, nervous for the drive home but more excited than anything.

Ive got a mod stem at home that I don't need anymore if you want it for free.

That looks epic mate. Awesome work Mike.

If it was as clear cut as that and nothing else involving politics then yes I would.

Went for a test drive and didn't die.

Politics is something I have never been interested in. I don't really care as long as I have my job and my friends. WWhat annoys me more is when all of the people suddenly become politicians and start shoving things down my throat. I wouldn't do the same to anyone else about something I'm so passionate about so why should they suddenly do it to me and others. It's worse when people tell me to "go vote so and so", why would I do that when I don't even know or care about it. It is very ignorant as said but, life goes on. Changes happen, I deal with it.

Not voting as I don't really care. I'm massively ignorant when elections come around unfortunately.

Here's something to lighten your days. You're discussing a make belief world with someone who has taken a lot of drugs before. Hahahaha

Little update. Mapping is next week and as expected I'm cutting it quite fine. Got a jerry can on the way so I can get some petrol and fill Boris up and let it run to get coolant all the way around it. Water wetter on the way, along with a catch can and pipework too. Bled the brakes and I'm not sure if there's air in there but it's spongy. There is a lot of brake pad flex which is strange. Never noticed it before on a car but it's like the play in the pedal is the pad flexing just on one side and just one pad. Odd. Got a sun strip to fit tomorrow or Wednesday and also sort out the tracking of one wheel as when I've changed the track rod end I must have put it on a different amount of thread as that wheel is toeing out a f**king shit load. Which isn't ideal when I'm supposed to be driving it home next Tuesday from mapping. I'm out all weekend so can't play then although I do have Monday off. Got the girlfriend to clay the car for me yesterday which is cool as it was absolutely filthy and covered in grinding and welding dust. It's come up OK but needs detailing properly.

That's f**king epic mate! Love shit like that.

Deffo an mx5! You want something fun if it's just a run around surely.

As if renparts are actually selling that hahahah

I left bacon out in the front of my tent at tarty days and when I came to cook it it was white and I didn't die.

Lmao, could eat them how they are and you'd be fine!

Been mega busy with the last push before mapping! It's all the little things i've been sorting out. Apologies if the pics look rubbish, trying a new uploading site as photobucket has had a disaster earlier. I've fitted the interior, along with the false floor which is a bit bent but it's worked a treat. Fire extinguisher is fixed infront of passenger seat too. I then fitted my rear door cards from CM composite. They were fitted by 3 x M4 rivnuts in each corner. Ideally another one would be spot on but there is no metal behind them, they are very secure though. No door card After Interior pics as it stands! Black strip is for the scuttle when finished bleeding the brakes The car now has coolant in and the turbo intake is fitted using a ramair filter. Used ducting from the intercooler pipework and it fitted spot on. I've also secured the ecu upright using brackets from an oil cooler I bought from [USER=11651]@optical[/USER] . That has been cushioned with some rubber just to reduce residual vibrations. I also got sick of the pink aerocatches (god knows why they come that colour, it's absolutely dire). So with some caustic soda I removed the anodising and then trimmed them down as they were too long. I will do the rears at one point when i've got time. I'm awaiting on some braided front brake lines then I can bleed the front brakes then it's pretty much complete for mapping. I've sorted the exhaust too, i'm using the megane 225 link pipe from the de-cat and it needs to mate up to my original exhaust and luckily cutting a section from my clio 182 decat allows it to join up perfectly. I got some clamps on there today btw. I will be getting a full 3" system at one point then getting the map tweaked but for now it will be fine. To finish here are lots and lots of engine bay pics as i'm over the moon with it..

Had an incredibly good weekend on the car. Great weather for it To summarise this weekend.. Epas fitted and feels awesome Gearbox cables fed through and connected Bumper brackets fitted so bumper can be fitted Aerocatches fully fitted Water filled up Brake lines fitted Brakes bled Clutch bled. Bled like a charm and feels delicious Throttle cable connected I'm so happy with the front end just need to get a sunstrip fitted again. Needs a wash too as you can see it's caked in dust.

That's strange, two of my mates have just done that within the past two weeks. Must be weather related surely.

Is it bad to not even consider handing it in?

Rather than being weird about it, you need to consider a different approach. It always seems like you come on here and attack us. I couldn't give a f**k though, I've been snorting chemtrails all afternoon. It's been fun.

I knew you'd approve that's why I tagged

"we're just blind" comment coming in 3,2,1. I do feel for him though, it's like when your parents don't believe you didn't do something and you're so frustrated that they can't see it. I wouldn't mind if it was just one conspiracy theory but it makes me laugh that conspiracy theorists believe in absolutely alllllll of them. It just tells you what sort of people these people are, very stupid. Very naive. What do you do for a job dave? Is it a career or do you just get by, with lots of spare time on your hands?

I love how he comes along every 6 months or so spouting his shit. It's like he's been hidden away in a pitch black room researching then coming on here to relieve all. Like a f**king cancerous Bible preacher.

Speak to @Adam@TartyBikes he absolutely loves slamming rides... ItsIt's whatwhat mx5 s are for right?

You're just gonna have to get over it haha
