todays work..........

got cranksensor fitted on its bracket i made today. fits spot on shame it looks a bit tatty but it doesnt really matter. not sure if the gaps right but i can tweak it as its only ally.



also got my coil bracket fitted that i finished off today



also got fuel lines connected up but not bothered to take any pics as its not that interesting and got a bit more of the ecu wiring done inside the car. fuel pump relays now connected up as well. not much left to do now
