Quote from: mpk490p;561341Managed to get hold of a JDM Mazdaspeed 2way LSD :Thumbsup!

as the weather is so poor i thought i would check the plates in the lsd i have, all within spec and no need to replace anything:Thumbsup!

so i have had the last few days off and with yesterday being a good one got a few more jobs done!
still awaiting some jets to get the fine tuning on the weber. been meaning to upgrade the headlight wiring so do that with a couple of relays and some direct wiring. also did a nice little trick with the headlight flasher/pass light, i usualy just flip the lights up and down for this but if you fit a rectifier diode (i used a 1n5408 from Maplins) between the flash (red and blue) and headlight up circit (red) make sure you get the diode in the right way (Photo) when you pull to flash it will also flips the lights, mod takes 2 minutes and for 20p well worth it:Thumbs-up

You are no use to me now Mark. You have been sucked dry of all information regarding your 1st Gens and unless you promise to report all 1st gen registration finds that you see, you will have to be discarded. :evillaugh

mpk490p

when is this weather going to cheer up! not driven the car since October (dont get me wrong i have no problem with getting it dirty) it needs new front pads and i have the full conversion kit waiting to go on so no point in buying new pads, also need to change the diff drop the fuel tank to fit a new breather pipe and fuel pump, all i need is one half decent weekend!!!!!

At the end of every week I\'ve been thinking \'Better weather\'s coming next week\'.
Been doing this for last 6 or 7 weeks.
Car\'s been out about 3 times (in between the snowstorms, the salt, the fog and the wet).
What do we all think......rubbish!
