Not ideal but workable - guess it would be easier if there was an extra tooth on the belt

Well today was the day I finally got the car back, been a total nightmare from the start, I'll list all that's went wrong

1 Wrong diff bearings sent
2 Gearbox bolts missing
3 Greddy belts DON'T fit with manual tensioner
4 Distributor packed in when all back together

Been told to take it easy for the first couple off weeks and go back and have everything checked over.

On the drive home something didn't feel right and luckily was going down to see @merlin who took the car for a drive for me and worked out with car sitting my front brakes had started to seize up, he kindly rectified that for me and car feels good once again. Obviously I'll know more over the next couple of weeks but the car certainly feels alot more responsive.

While cars been in I've been collecting a few bits.

I decided to get the front torque mount to go with the traction bar instead of changing all the mounts.

Also got the front and rear DSP speakers thanks to @prelude danny

Also came with this. @rattymcclelland hoping you can help here.

Comprises off front and rear inputs in phono format, other end is 3 wires that I presume is for live, ignition live and earth (yellow, blue/white and black). Then has 4 lots of speaker outputs with bullet style connectors, front left and right, rear left and right. Im thinking its a small amp or crossover?

I'd also like to take the chance to thank @vanzep for all his help, without this I reckon I would have gave up long ago but he kept me in the right frame of mind and helped when any complications arose.

Yes that's an amp but I have never seen it before. Is it part of the dsp setup?

Honestly don't know, @wurlycorner is it part of DSP?

There is also a difference in the water pump pulley between h23 and h22. H23 had a smaller pulley with less teeth (so gives more slack in the belt).

Glad it was just the brakes
