So it's been sitting in the garage for almost 4 years now, knackered driveshafts and no inlet manifold, looking rather sorry. Was out there today having a tinker and want to get it back on the road.
As it's not my daily driver anymore I thought a few mods would be in order!
What would people suggest in way of stripping? Thinking perhaps using as a track toy... not going all out with cage and seats though, want to keep it looking resonably standard.
so far im thinking...
remove back seats, carpet etc, door panels, sound deadening
remove rear wiper/motor/jets etc
replace battery with red top/lightweight
What else is there that can be removed/stripped? any figures on what the above saves?
mods im thinking to free up ponies:
got a dry sump I could fit, just need a pump
replace hydraulic PS pump with leccy pump
replace mechanical water pump with leccy water pump
Has anyone done any of these? if so got any guides?
