Some small jobs on the weekend, trying to complete the ECU wiring and tackled the snapped roof bar stud Went back and started from the middle, and twisted the bundle of wires in layers. The ends nearest the plug all had a small curl put in the wires for strain relief once the heatshrink went on Had to extend a few wires for the Lambda so a good excuse to try these new heat shrink solder joints I found online, worked pretty well and look good Pinned the AEM puck wires in a separate shielded cable as per the other side of the loom Want to run the loom up the bulkhead, across and out to the roll cage where the ECU will sit so did a test run first to make sure it fitted. I've since heated and shaped the loom to fit nice and tight to the top of the fire wall to clear the extinguisher pipe Okay, the dreaded snapped roof stud. Had to protect the paint first with several layers of tape just in case before I drilled the stud out and through into the cabin Careful pilot hole..... and it comes through clear of the cage and in a easy place to work from the inside, phew! Time to drill it to size and paint the area to protect it EZ-out on the stud in the t-nut Back on with the end of the roof rail Just the nut to paint and seal later on Will continue the wiring in the week.

Thanks everyone. No big plans for this. Keeping it simple mostly. May be a few minor mods. Need to sort a few issues out. I will post a list soon. A pic of what I was driving last few months

Some well needed tlc on DD Including brand new front brake calipers, service and general health check. Also need to do something about the snapped rocker cover bolt (needs drilling out of the head so going to find somewhere that can do that). Hopefully finally get at least the front end resprayed (would love a full respray but can't fund that right now). Might even do the front end paint myself if I can get the garage cleaned out and new hoses etc for my compressor. In other news, possibly looking to buy a future classic to keep DD company in the garage! Shortlist so far is a mk1 Mazda MX5. Oh, and decorating house (inside this time as we did all the exterior last year, painted whole house and gutters/pipes etc!) Best bit this year though is holiday time.................off to Greece again (Crete this time)! Can't wait!
