engine looking a bit more back together, binned off excess vacuum hoses and other garbage
On the stand for the sump to be dropped and pick up replaced
wasn't too bad but worth replacing
cleaned the sump of excess crap too
Rusty shafts cleaned and painted
black motor
Needs another few coats then its good to go.
Just waiting on an R32 front ARB which will be here by the weekend, and the box should be back this week so can whack the quick shift on that and get that painted black too

Spare bung for my downpipe to so can datalog the car once it's back and rolling.
Basically before the car was taken off the road it was over fuelling slightly. Jabba have checked the map so it's either a sensor or an air leak, the old mani did have a crack in it so maybe that was affecting it. Either way all hoses have been checked and double checked so no vacuum leaks. Fingers crossed once it's back in it won't need logging!
