Not much going on over the last few until last weekend when I fitted my Fezzasus heater. Only took 3 hrs and one bleeding knuckle! I'm now have lovely warm feet! Next job is to take a look at 1st Gear as it's difficult to engage without selecting 2nd first.. Hoping it's just adjustment on the cables

Thinking of getting an Oil Catch Tank

These are the 2 combinations I have in mind I'm undecided on colour choice so what do you all think?

As you know may VX is white but going for Blue black and Orange parts in engine bay.

Black and Orange

Blue and Blue

I have no idea what you have just said! Men only work in primary colours!

you do realise the z22se engine hates oil catch tanks :huh:

It will just fill up with condensation and cause problems thumbsdown

Couple of jobs done this weekend -

Fitted Elise parts wiper and spray bar.

Adjusted ride height as now settled after full refresh and changed profile of front tyres.
Front from 103mm to 120mm and Rear from 120mm to 130mm hopefully get over those poxy speed humps now.

Then out for a hoon and stopped for a Red Bull !
