Last week saw my DAX through MOT and back on the road after a 3 year absence. Now I did not build the car, I bought the finished car on the road in 2002. Since I have now spent many hours and done plenty of hard work improving the car, I feel that I should make a continuous thread instead of just posting in seperate technical threads. Not really a build thread, but a development thread.
Today I went for my first real drive since it was a really nice sunny day, I got a call from a friend who was at Knockhill circuit, he said 'listen to this', and said that what I had heard on the phone was an original. So the wife and I got in the 40 and away to knockhill, unfortunately he did a demonstration run and then left, so I didn't get the pleasure, the GT race was interesting though.
Anyway, I had a good drive, and apart from the fast idle not wanting to release, it was a perfect run, amazing how a run in one of these cars is an adrenaline soaked wet dream.
So on to the thread and what changes I have made so far.
