Re: GT mediated Awesomeness
Its all going well so far...
I got the TRS up and running yesterday, i'm trying to find a decent 32/34 Weber DRTC for it, as a Swiss car it has all sorts of emissions control rubbish and according to the internet should only have 75bhp, i'm hoping a UK spec carb and blanking off the emissions control stuff will improve its running etc so it can be MOT'd and sold.
It is being moved next week so that it can be side-by-side with the GT, ready for the rest of the a/c installation on the GT. Whilst they're both tucked up together there are a few other jobs that need doing on both.
TRS - Brakes, carburettor, cambelt, nearside wing mirror, UK spec headlights, autobox fluid change, wiper blades, fuel hose replacement
GT - cambelt, both rear electric window mechanisms/glass securing channels, fuel hose replacement, exhaust adjustment {vibrating against spare wheel carrier when cold} and of course the dashboard a/c swap
I have to finish installing the new bathroom first though!
