So this one now has CP21S front seats (blue with wings),

Looking at putting rears in, but the CP21 mounting has changed;
Not sure whether to try and get CP21 covers modified for my spare cm11v set - or keep the cm11v set original so sell


Will be getting new rear shocks installed soon,
KYB 342020
Just getting over a cold, then gotta get some hoist time to cut off a rusty bolt.

Far right pic: New SS for other alto, some local alto, old SS shock, new KYB (342020)

New shocks in,
Cut-off bolt corner still very average, really need to weld a new captive nut on.

Of course I then realised the springs dont match each other so will have to replace them,

Looks like I might need a new fuel pump for this due to running out of fuel,
Any recommendations?

Wooo fixed*
Positive wire on the pump cradle was almost off, did the nut up and seems all good.
- Took about 4hrs to to though

Benny, don't I have to try and match the LPH and PSI of the current pump? Specs which I don't have

Not 100% sure mate, if the pressure on new pump is higher then standard won't the pressure regulator just do its job and run the excess back to the tank?? As I said mate I'm not sure

I have a F6A I could put in, but I'd really prefer to keep it for the third shell (though it probably wont get used)

Think I really should rebuild a F5B (since I have 1 'spare' -completely apart, and to keep one car 'original')- though it'd be more expensive than a F6A I believe

Crank bearings, conrod bearings, rings, head gasket, timing belt (have), water pump (have).. anything else?
