Had alot of fun today, picked this up for the dash
Also got my 5 point harness
And i decided it was time to fit the exhaust, downpipe from Gem, decat from Jay (cheers for that lads)
Fitted the exhaust and then sorted out the oil return from the turbo to the engine and blead the clutch. Then with a jump start from Vicky (my vectra lol) she fired up.
I still dont have the brakes connected up but i took the car for a drive around the yard and used the handbrake to stop it. Im fuckin delighted that the car starts, runs and drives.
Now the real fun begins
Fair play to ya! its all coming together! when do you aim to have it on track?
This is a video of the cars first drive.

Car has no brake pipes connected so i just had the handbrake to stop it.
I need to get an exhaust manifold gasket as its leaking, gonna wait till i get a japspeed exhaust manifold and then replace it.
