SLO-030 Posted October 7, 2010 Author Report Posted October 7, 2010 (edited) Feels great. will be better once its all together tho. Joined up the exhaust tonight. Leaks like a mofo, but hopefully soon i can get it over the pit at work and whack a flange in there to get rid of the welded join that's there now. Or take it down the road to Morphett Vale Exhausts and get a decent 1.75/2" system. Got door seals on today. Gotta get some more clips that hold the seal to the door tomorrow. Hopefully get latches and locks in tomorrow too. Got all my electrics working properly last night TOO! When the brakes, headlights/taillights were applied both left and right indicators would come on. When either indicator was used both would light up and the flasher can go psycho. There's a taillight loom earth in the boot, connect it up and BAM! everything works as per normal. Turns out the rear lights were earthing thru the indicator filaments since the proper earth wasnt connected. Damn electrical.. Now also sporting a dent and cracked paint to my lower passenger rear 1/4 :abuse: Edited October 7, 2010 by SLO-030 Quote
