Woah! close call with that wiring mate! good job you spotted it!!

[jayrs]

bloody hell mate, just as well you found it.

pasted you saturday morning ( was in my dads van) cars looking very nice mate i want your wheels still

[FRSJON]

cheers lads ,yeah glad i found it,will replace that section of loom as dont fancy taking the fuse box out plus it will give me a chance to make it longer and hide it abit plus as its all apart i will be painting the rear of the engine bay and making things look abit neater

[Dave G fsi]

That was a close call mate, at least you found it before anything serious happened

[RS Joe]

Car's looking fookin' mint, even though you're not completely happy with it yet.
Looks awesome on those wheels
Lucky you decided to have a tidy up under the bonnet though

[FRSJON]

thanks again lads,well luckily again for me after stripping the tape off the loom is only gone through a few wires...two (the biggest ones) need replacing but the other few can be just rejoined cracking on with the revamp and looking good

[Turboboy67]

Bloody hell mate, that could of resulted in the whole car going up in flames,

If it had happened on the ferry the other week it might of been even worse

Well, glad its been found mate and going to be sorted.

[jayrs]

[FRSJON]

[jonyb4]

looking really great mate, i love this car, the bay is looking liek one of the best a mk3 can have

interesting servo i must say, how does it work without a big drum?

[jayrs]

looking good though mate

[FRSJON]

interesting servo i must say, how does it work without a big drum?

cheers mate. well in the before pic there is a remote servo sitting in front of the master cylinders,it has now been removed. the reasoning behind the removal was that the braking system wasnt working the best and i dont know of anyone else with a twin master cylinder bias box using them. at the mo there is still on in the boot for the rear brakes but its days are numbered

[ddrsturbo]

defo looking much beter now all i need to do is convince u that the rear servo needs to go and as soon as u come to ya senses i will be round with my tools more parts coming off lol

[FRSJON]

defo looking much beter now all i need to do is convince u that the rear servo needs to go and as soon as u come to ya senses i will be round with my tools more parts coming off lol

looks gr8 dude, looks well thought out, like the new place 4 the resivours with that backplate thingy outa the way

also really like the new plug cover and hose clamps

[FRSJON]

cheers mate plug lead cover is tinted perspex,the carbon i had was looking a bit ropey as for the fluid pots there wasnt really any choice on where to put them unless i had the braided lines made specially.
it did take forever to decide on where to put things,wanted to hide as much as possble and the only part i couldnt hide as well as id liked was the looms,the down side of have fiesta and focus looms
well the cars in for its mot in the morning now fitted with a FIA approved race cat...fingers crossed

not much has changed to the car lately .recently ive put the car up for sale due to the fact i dont get to use it and it seems a waist to have it sitting here. plus me and a friend have another project on the go so money is needed for that ( project UFO). from today the car is provisionally sold and 99% sure it will be going so this is the last up date on the 'manj' from me and i hope the new owner keeps us all updated on its progress.its a awesome car and will be missed
