ABS upgrade....

[britlude]

and lo, on christmas eve eve it began....1.50pm to be precise.....



soon turned into this....



and this



became this.....

[britlude]

hang on, that's a bit dull.... how about......

[britlude]

that seems to work... so.....

[britlude]

the other side..... somewhat simpler, and identified the sides the piping feeds...



as i'm leaving the refit until the morning, i've used the blanks that came with the new ABS modulator to cap off the rear brake lines, and the ends of the front flexy pipes!

[britlude]

just to finish off.... getting to the front brake lines, animated

[britlude]

while i was sorting stripping things off, found the scuttle drain had a little debris....

the down pipe drain....


the debris!


pipes all out, ready for the new stuf... well....mmm grubby


mmm better!


not going to tell you what i cleaned it with, it only starts arguements!

[britlude]

never to clatter in my car again..... (ironically did it this morning!)




stripped to relieve it of the required bracket!



if anyone has the need for a 'working fine when i took it off '92 ABS unit', you know where it is! i also have the 'Warrenw' of NSXPrime rebuild kit to go with it.....

....accumulator was replaced with a new one by me sometime on the past, can't remember when, but it's in my Build thread!!!!


while the heater motor assembly is out, i had a quick peek at the air-con evaporator....



looks nice and clean, the filter i put over the fresh air intake seems to be doing the trick!

I think my iPad's playing up, the images are jumping all over the place.

A perfect excuse to convince my "Santa" to buy me a new one before the Apple Store closes tomorrow at 4.

day 2.... putting it all back together.... ok, i got a bit carried away and forgot to take some pics at the start! needless to say the most awkward pipe to thread through is the passenger front corner..... when the car was built none of the air con system was in place to get in the way, alas upgrading we don't have that luxury, so it's a case of gentle tweaks to get the pipes in, then gentle tweaks back to their original form!

anyhoo.... running pipes and loosely fastening them, just to make sure the pipes are in the right order to go across the car




then from this..


to this.....

[britlude]

with the magic of gif..... (as it's still new to me and amazing, tho will get annoying soon...)



lots of pipes...


more pipes (well the same pipes, different angle....)


started routing the wiring loom....
