Super tidy build! Does the auto dim rear view mirror just need power to it?

 

[GTAntoni]

Managed to sort out the fmic to get it back 20mm do it doesn’t foul on the front bumper

She’s finally running, ignore the squeaking it’s the tensioner , so after changing a couple sensors and still not playing ball just thought let’s swap over the ecu from stand-alone to a standard gt1 ecu and behold she started up.!

ever considered having an intake made to draw air form the slot in the bonnet rather than an open pod filter, a custom carbon airbox similar to oem i guess would look epic - but even something like a CDA and some pipes would work well.

Very nice build coming along. Do you know what the dimensions of the adapter for the coupe brakes are, or do you have a mold of some kind? Thinking about fitting ones on mine but cant find any information on them

funny enough ill be making some kinda heat shield so heat can't get to the air filter

So over the weekend I managed to actually do some bits on the punto gt , sorted out the slight smell of fuel by the filler neck where it joins the fuel tank the rubber slip wasn't down far enough just needed another 10m , and bleed the clutch slave so now I can feel I have a clutch pedal

That was one of the union bolts from the steering rack that sheered of while driving ..... no other damage as I know of yet
