Work in progress - wish me luck :)

[Interceptor]

Since I do not have access to a heated garage and it became really cold really fast here (with wind speeds up to 200 km/h) I decided to let my indy change intake manifold gaskets while the car is there for rear axle carrier replacement (it got slightly bent when the previous owner hit the curb with one of the rear wheels). He replaced the trailing arm on that side but the guy who did the work didn't notice that the carrier was slightly bent (rear left wheel was slightly closed) causing the car to pull slightly to the left. Front end was rebuilt recently and even after the alignment the car still pulled slightly to the left and that's how I found out about the carrier (after close inspection by my indy).

The following will be replaced:
- rear axle carrier + both rear trailing arms
- guibo
- intake manifold gaskets
- throttle body gasket
- valve cover gasket + rubber pads
- injector seals (upper + lower)
- vacuum hose (intake rubber boot to idle control valve)
- 2 BREMI coils that started showing candy will be replaced with BOSCH ones (I had 2 BREMI + 4 BOSCH coils - f**king PO!)
- all spark plug boots

I decided not to buy all 6 new coils since I'll need the money to pay the bill for the work being done by someone else.

Wish me luck so that I can win the lottery before the bill arrives
