Your probably right….. but imcertain the bolts on each side are all the same size.  One of the bolts on the passenger side head is slightly longer as it has the bracket for the alternator support on it also.

You can find a photo of this on my thread on the last page.

I always thought they were m10x1.0

Looking great Cav. Really nice. Have you got a part number for the an adaptors that come out of the vz brake master? 12×1 Speedflow dual seat adaptor?

I can chase the number when I get home. But it’s a M10x1.0 dual seat back to -3

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Lol I have like 5 x500ml tubs of it at home. If only I knew

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Lot more involved with doing a section of hard line. Plus buy the time you do all the adapters etc it will be 200mm long

I reckon that would look way better if you made up some hardlines out of tube down to the bottom left of the engine and coat them black. Then just the flexible hoses across to the cooler with 90 degree fittings.

Nah too much work and too many more fittings. Im just gunna buy some 30’s and do it in push lock. I’ve already drilled the guard also.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Bit more done today.

I finished the last brake line under the guards. I also ran some water lines for the w2a.

I’m not digging it think I’ll change the straight fittings to some 30’s or 45’s.

I’ll also buy another black 90 as that one red and blue fitting burns me hahah.

Can also see my braided brake lines. For an off the shelf item I’m not very happy with them so I think I’ll return them and get another set done.

Good news. The thermo fan should be all controlled via the ECU.

Does the car have a tune in it?

AC bracket should clear the front sump mounted dipstick Cav..

ahh ok. Wasn’t too sure to be honest.

The one I have is flexible but I’d imagine the more you try and dodge the more you take off the overall length of it. Then you may have issues with it not reaching the bolt hole

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Dunno how big the Ac is to be honest.

The factory dipstick location on LSA is on the block and the back. It’s now on the front in the sump. So it could potentially clash

My mate tony come past today and we gave it another decent nudge.

We got the box and converter in finally. After 2 attempts. Not something I want to do again on jack stands. That’s for sure.

Anyways. It’s all in and in place. I need to buy some new bell housing bolts. The ones I have are too short. As are my converter bolts. No biggie.

Headers and now in final position. Manual rack is in and I’ve installed my head shields for the boots. Starter is all buttoned up and awaiting wiring.

Long list of things to do. But I’ll chip away at it slowly and get it all pieced together.

I’ll finish off the fluid lines now that trans is in place. Once that’s done diff is out to get all the bushes changed out. Then I can setup my pinion angle etc and then adjust my trans mount accordingly.

Fun times.

Nice work Gary. How does the vents perform.

Don’t think it’s much of an issue, pump #1 at half speed at idle and cruise is barely working so it’s not wearing like it would running flat out, modern pumps have a great lifespan.

i have to pick your brain on how I can get the one controller to half speed 1 pump and rpm activate the other
