Can you send some images of what's left? :)

Today I repaired the damage around the door frame, paint ain't great. However looks a lot better than a crowbarred frame! I then waxed the whole car for the first time. Came up pretty decent. Still need to lose those bump strips. I also replaced the door seals on the DS which were also damaged from a break in. Much better :)
Also installed my lovely protegé steering wheel, classy stuff. Did require butchering a simple clock spring onto it, but easy enough.

She drives again.. and what a sight!

Cheers guys, great to have it running again.
Toad cat 1 alarm fitted today! Had it fitted by a pro to get the certificate for insurance companies.
Nice to have RCL again. Doors lock after 10 seconds for antihijack. He also hooked it up so the interior light stays on until I turn the key :) So theres like 4 levels of security on this car now :mrgreen:

In the middle of exams now. Bit of waxing for stress relief.

Rx8 425cc denso injectors

I used to have one 'Thunderbird 4' in the belly of 'Thunderbird 2'!! Not fair….......youv'e got 4 of em!!!! :rofl:
They are 'pretty', are they visible on the rail when installed?
Often wondered, is the 425cc the fuel volume output/minute or is it the swept cylinder volume they should be matched to ie on the K8 are they about 307.5cc? ie 1845cc divided by 6 cylinders = 307.5cc ???
Bet theres some 'Maths' involved in getting the correct ones? :oops:
Is the standard pump able to cope?
-
Lol I had one too! T2 was my fave for that reason!
Calculated by flow rate per min so 400cc every minute at 43.5psi fuel pressure. There's loads of calculators online to reduce the maths to zero :)
Polyurethane filled mounts! The cheap way to firm mounts:
Painted and filled rear:
The front is installed, cba installing rear this morning! I've been working a fair bit so alas turbo progress is slow.
Also removed the AC pump, rad, fan, hoses etc. much cleaner engine bay!
-

Cleaned up:
Rare sunny shot:

So I appear to have a B3S7 flywheel (same as 1.3 festiva?)
Today's work in a few photos!
My view for a fair bit of today:
Hours of work for this lol:
Not helped by A LOT of this:
So that's the horrible oil return job done. Alignment to the turbo drain is brilliant. Next step intercooler piping!
Oh yea and on Friday I also sorted out this disgusting sight:
And made this fit the B5 setup:
