RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Piggy - 03-05-2015
aye. I nearly forgot about them too.
I hope i can make them work. It was all working and then suddenly stopped. Fuses all good. very annoying.
The directional controls are defunct anyway but I hope to find a decent EMP gauge to fit in the gap

ta dood. Could have been better. The dash was a bit porous and in retrospect i should have sealed it first. Glue dried too fast really

Car looks great!
But ziggy is definitely star of the show! :-)

I need to do a Ziggy episode. Strap the nopro to her back and see what she gets up to!
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - highwayman306 - 07-05-2015
Freaking awesome
its coming along nicelyAs said, Ziggy is the star, she's beautiful
Right, got a quick question...can extractors be used for bleed nipples?

RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Piggy - 07-05-2015
Good drill bit, the right size (just a tiny bit smaller than the thread) and drill it dead center and it was fine.
Just be cautious as you near the bottom as you dont wana drill into the sealing seat.
In other news...
just got my heater fan all working...yay now I can see! Stuck in a very good second hand fan I found in my spares and another resistor and all is well
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - bashbarnard - 07-05-2015
Same as what was happening to mine man. Glad you got it sorted
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - highwayman306 - 07-05-2015
Cheers lads, my nipples haven't broke yet but it is only a matter of time. Im planning a long(ish) journey soon and getting the beast fully serviced. I had an incident a few years back when i left the handbrake on and drove about without noticing (lol) epic fail i know! The f*cking discs were glowing red for a good few minutes so had them replaced sharpish but didn't change the fluid. I have fears that the fluid is cooked and wanted to change the fluid out of the system, bleeding is my preferred method but i know about the nipples being bastards... just wanted to know if worst comes to worst i can remove the broken ones without drilling...but you've all answered that nicely
What sized replacements do I need? I read 10mm and 7mm, but thats just the hex size isn't it? What threads are they and where can I get them from?
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Piggy - 12-05-2015
how not to paint yet get a relatively decent finish...
prep work: scotch pad, hose then wipe clean with brake cleaner. (dont bother with filler or such namby pamby things)
masking....nope.
Paint in a well ventilated area...like, say, outdoors
Dry in a suitable "oven"...the sun does the job well.
The finish:

RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Dum-Dum - 18-05-2015
I'm gonna get you a swear jar for every time you use the word erm in your videos. I'd make a fortune.

better than an actual swear word.
But I take your point... I do apologise too.
These and the next few will be ermish as I'm so busy doing the jobs and doing work that the videos are planned out like usual!
sorry me peeps
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Piggy - 18-05-2015
just read loads of this thread again...
been quite a journey.
I do indeed see the destination though, I will be there soon and this thread will collect dust.
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - procta - 18-05-2015
Piggy please, please put some acid house on one of your videos! you will get more views!

didn't acid house get brought up on this forum before - no one had heard of it
piggy, normally the 'destination' gets moved a bit further ahead - unless you bin it of course, but fingers crossed that doesn't happen

It's more like, we have heard of it...and didn't like it. In the same category as....nails on a chalkboard or a chipmunk in a vice.
There will be a final journey this year I think.
I'm not enjoying the car community at the moment, a lot of hostility and hate. And it's having a bad effect on me.
Need to get back into my music. Happier place.

Can't believe you wasted time smashing your windows out when you could have just parked up in London and had them done in for free
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Toms306 - 19-05-2015
Particularly if you park up with a veg oil drum in the car...
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - 1616six - 19-05-2015
You'll have a smashing time.
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Niall - 19-05-2015
I bet you're completely shattered after all of this work with your windows.

I thought in the videos his eyes looked a bit glazed over.
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Niall - 19-05-2015
Christ yeah he does. Must of been a right pane in the arse.
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - 1616six - 19-05-2015
I'm sure Piggy will continue untempered though.
RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - kentiiboii - 19-05-2015
Smashing his way through the project as always. :-)

RE: 2.1GTd....time for finishing stuff... - Seb_Ryan - 19-05-2015
Could of done with being a bit lower? Not being negative btw, just iirc should be angled downwards slightly not horizontal?
