then i looked at the shabby, non arsed job i did of protecting the rear flared arches from corrosion with a skim of iso-pan and not much attention.. it had to be sorted so with that sorted i got carried away and decided to re spray all 4 arches take out any rust at all which there is pretty much non of!

Ok so i forgot to take pics but heres it on stands while we changed diff oil to castrol B373 an engine oil and filter to TOYOTA and Mobil 10w40SS
we had alot of difficulty with the new oil cooler also and had to hunt down 2 grub screws to block off open sender and return holes..nightmare! Not to mention running a subaru filter! This all became a waste of time when i went to turn the engine over and oil pi*sed out of the cooler ! cracked! off came that and a top up of oil and all was good.Tightened the hand brake thanks to retro head and also decided id give the car a once over and G3 compound the lot..kinda
