Looking at your 7.. defo get some towels or summit in boot.. if mines parked like that it fills with water. Rain sits in the tailgate gulleys and tracks over.

Full week of shopping in the boot, easy peasy

Investigated the diff since it knocks when the clutch engages (mainly in reverse). The propshaft looks bolted on properly but the diff is leaking. It looks like it's leaking from the half shaft (which could also be the source of the knocks)

I’m interested what you find here. Mine also knocks in reverse and has a leak. So far my solution is to pour more oil in the top, but I’m not against doing something more permanent at some point

My bets the half shaft. diff has recently been rebuilt by a reputable company so I trust their workmanship

Got some bits done today! Finally got cracking with the rust repair on my 5, it's really not too bad! Sill end plate is all solid, just a small hole at the bottom of the arch as it meets the rear sill!

Cut out all the outer sill, I'm really impressed with the condition inside! The cavity wax I used a couple of years ago has held up very well. Tomorrow I'll grind off everything to bare metal and protect it all for years to come!

First layer of protection on! Tomorrow morning is the second layer and then it's cavity wax time!

GFB Developments COP kit came, started collecting bits for the incoming engine rebuild!

Tack welded the sill on, then seam welded the top. Just the bottom to do now! Cant believe the sills were only spot welded from factory

The other quarter has had a repair before, full of filler! Not much rust at all though! Only had to fabricate the inner quarter! Also moved into my first ever unit, so happy!

Sorry I didn't get a notification for this! I've ordered the engine bits off of bofi and I'm about to buy a second engine to build. Once that's done it's a case of throwing the supercharger kit on!

Got the engine in the rx7, I couldn't find the engine mount bolts though so it's held in with screwdrivers for now

I'm not sure! I bought the car in bits, engine has good compression though apparently so I'm gonna see how it does
