What to say. The time has come to share in pictures with the great re-build . Works it self are not finished yet and exact due date is not known as well (since as always something unexpected can pop up anytime). Everything has started in August 2010 after my Alpine road trip (also some pics here). I really wanted to say to my car decent good bye (before I leave it thousand miles from home in Italy) for many months. As time and money comes and goes things has changed a bit from the beginning but that is not important. Important is that everything is on the best way it should be now. I will share more with pics than with words because I know everyone likes pictures more than reading ...
Primary target = rebuild the engine In fact engine it self was not any bad. But it do not mean everything was mint with the car/engine (as can be seen in some pictures later). Since my mechanic wolf_tm is super-precise person everything must be clean and perfect. Almost everything in the engine was replaced by performance parts or new OEM parts. Of course also clutch was replaced by more durable one and flywheel was skimmed and balanced. So engine done... almost (done means "closed" ). To be continued...

Coolant! It is in years (年:)) and also it is mention difference between first change and other changes. The rest is absolutely clear (oil, oil filter, cam belt even also other things like clearances or idle rpm ) . Only note about aircon filters is funny - "clean every 12months and replace after 50K kms". Manual A/C in European/US models has no filters to replace or clean as I know ...so this automatic one seems must have something I need to find and check from time to time . -------------------- No more replicas...
