Spent another day on her this saturday and i can safely say i broke the world record for longest string of consecutive swear words.

first up i removed the rest of the warm air system thingy, all that was left was a fan/motor thing and some pipe work, so bumper off.



this is the thing in question



off



next the manifold was to come off, probably for the first time in 15 years, so one bolt snapped and is stuck in the head....



and one got snapped too where it bolts to the front pipe, so more work to do :(

manifold off



old gaskets



i thought while i had the bumper off id test fit my splitter





then i cremated MR Duck

[BIG DAN]

good work there bud splitter looks good




and oh no you killed mr duck you BA***RD lmfao


what did he do wrong ?

[tazz666]

that fan thingie is for the auxillary air, for extra air for the egr system

[simon]

It did go straight into the manifold. Apparantly it helps with cold starts and prolongs the life of the cat or summat. And its not even needed in this country. The actual egr valve is still attached

[vinny_69]

did you give mr duck a proper send off?

[simon]

I didn't really burn him. I love him to much. It was a wasp I killed thats been [censored]ing my off all day. Sprayed it with black paint then while it was on the floor thinners then match lol

[vinny_69]

good lad i was gonna dig out my black tie

[charlie]

I was going to report you to the plastic duck appreciation society.

[vinny_69]

while you have the manifold off are you going to go crazy with the hammerite? i know i would

[Netwalker]

I got worried for Mr Duck I thought you had toasted him. I nearly lost sleep

Get painting

[simon]

painting, my hands are far to big to get in there id make a right mess lol

[vinny_69]

loads of room si take off the power steering pump, thermostat housing and oil return and you will have loads of room to treat the front of the block. don't worry about the back ........who's gonna see that

[simon]

Put the manifold back on yesterday,

went a bit hammerite happy before though





manifold back on


job done





And the 200sx abandoned in the corner lol
