gaz you didnt need exhaust gaskets mate, i got a tube of mastic that i use which is perfect for the job, wouldnt of cost you a penny, i'm using it and its faultless, but trying to get more is like rocking horse crap, would have saved you the money for the well deserved pint after the work ![]() anyway chop chop you lazy barsteward stop posting about the parts and fit them

right then typical ebay stating the headers were ok for rhd models. i knew they were going to need modifying so not too pissed about it. it just annoys me when people can't get there facts straight. anyway the o2 sensor location IS in the wrong position so will fowl the steering rod. anyhow not too much of a problem as i stayed on at work to fit the o2 sensor in the down pipe instead.. first take one o2 sensor and one off cut of stainless steel. ![]() drill it, bore it out and thread it for the o2 sensor boss ![]() ![]() ![]() make sure it fits LOL ![]() as its fitting on the side of the pipe i have to machine in a radius so it butts up clean against the pipe ready for the welders ![]() ![]() its a bit long so i shorten it to the depth of the thread on the o2 sensor ![]() just need to drill hole in down pipe and get it welded up ![]() ![]()

good work,not boring at all mate....very interesting and your a lucky man having access to equipment like that makes life much easier when you can DIY instead of having to send stuff away and then get ripped off for a job that usually aint done to your own expectations, good stuff mate. |

thats what im hoping especially with the full stainless system from the block back. many people say why bother with the non turbo just drop in a tt lump. tbh the US can seem to get some nice power figures from there na's so im going to see what i can get. its easy to drop a tt lump in i want a challenge
