vtec2011 Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 The smoke is bugging me now but still pulls like a train.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Probably valve stem seals or something given the mileage! Nice PB whoring shots! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 No smoke at all today. Maybe it was sh*t in the exhaust as in the video it was the first time I gave it a good revving. Oh, and the car was hot before revving it by the way I pulled the original lights of the old MB3 apart using a heat gun. So far I have only sanded and primered the surrounds. Can't wait when they're done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Sounds good and if you're changing the engine anyway the smoke doesn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Wasn't blue smoke so I wouldn't worry! Just need some lips now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 No smoke at all in the last few days so that's a good sign I got the headlights done. I left the orange indicator cap in but removed the clear lense as I think it looks too plain with clear indicators I have also got the Wolfrace wheels resprayed so they are left to dry till Monday. Can I put the wheels on without lacquer? Because I'm skint till next pay day now 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 You can put them on, just make sure you give them a really good clean and degrease before you lacquer them, @Grant had his on without lacquer for a short amount of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
