new idea for the kajeput - a subaru ej22 engine

But I`m not a talent with electric wires so brought the wireloom to the wire guru in Gilze. Jan cut out all the wires not used and made it plug and play for the beetle. Image In his test setup heard and seen it running, labeled it and took it to the wâlden. Image

I'm planning to upgrade my rear drum brakes to Porsche 944 disc brakes. I really want to get rid of the 5x205 to 5x130 adaptors. First thing was to clean te whole set. Image Before Image After sandblasting (-5 °C in the garage :)
