Another build thread

Looks good what have you wrapped the wire in?

I covered it all in heat-shrink sleeving (except for the short bit up to the handbrake where I used nylon braid).

I may do that myself!

Hi John, Looking good
Glad to see you have time to get back on with the build after your move. Wish I knew about auto electrics as much as you as I've started to strip my wiring loom a couple a weekends ago (knit one pearl two rings a bell)
I have been concerntrating on the engine side the last couple of weekends which doesn't come easy to me as I know nothing about cars...LOL (thats what a garage is for).

Keep up the good work...Johno

Looks very tidy indeed

I don,t think the IVA man would have any issues with that tidy work.

cheers

Maybe if you ignore the over-the-top sikaflex, and the masses of swarf and dust
Cheers Handy!

Not sure I know that much Johno, I've spent weeks/months figuring out the wiring and stripping the loom. It's been causing me no end of headaches!

Still slowly chipping away at the wiring...
Got the pedal box wired up, and fitted the battery and main fuse over the weekend.
Decided to put the battery into the engine bay rather than the passenger foot-well like I had originally planned (mostly because my lovely shiny battery bracket was too wide to fit in the foot-well ).
I think I'm going to put the ECU in the foot-well instead.

Oh mounted on it's side! What a good idea!

[skov]

Not my idea I'm afraid!
I'm sure I've seen someone else mount one of these batteries in pretty much the same location/orientation.
It is nice that you can mount these gel type batteries pretty much however you want

hi skov,

i was looking at the picture of your clutch master cylinder and it looks like you have mounted something inline prior to the clutch hose? What is this or it it the slave cylinder.

Thanks

David
