2 hours job in 3 days. the wbx clutch
Ok, you would guess that changing a clutch cable is easy job, but this one was horrible.
as there are many wires, brackets, and stuff in that place where the wing-nut is located.
everything else went like a charm, but getting the wing nut back to the wire was pain in the butt.
had to make a special tool to be able to tighten the nut, but now there's the 2 cm play in the clutch pedal, and its working better than before, but a new problem came, as the exhaust took a hit from a door stopper, and baaam, the header is bent again. ill try to fix it tomorrow...

the race trans is here!
it took long, but its finally here, rhino case, liberty gears, super diff, karpiola race axles, etc... still needs brakes. have to search what i have. maybe the porsche 4-pots would be great. but im ok, with new drums too. more later on...
wbx bug works again!
i went to somero, with some new battery cables etc to fix that pesky little bug, nutlike i earlier thought, that the problem is with the ground, so i dismantled the battery cable and put wire back in the cable shoe, and the extra wires very tight, and suddenly there was power in the battery. and now it even starts, and runs, and i drove it. i also made it to the cottage, and it was the best day, in a month. yesterday, i picked up a turn signal switch, but looks like it isn't like the original part. but have to check youtube for some help.
if i got it working again - that might be the biggest issue for that bug, one brake bulb needs to be changed too, and the exhaust needs some welding but then its inspection time. and the turbo kit is getting better all the time. but that's another story.
