Midday its booked in for, all ready now.

Put the dash back in today and soldered all wires up. . .

Its staying stripped out as was always intended to be.

Just the 2 90spec recaros up front and the dash, the 130bhp 1800 should pull quite well with the added bonus of a s2 lsd box fitted lol

Wish me luck anyway

Only been upto 60 ish in it so far, gonna tax it before it gets given some beans, does pull well though.
Just got a few odds and sods to sort on it, need to make a bracket to hold the air pipe tight from the air filter to the throttle body.
Wanna get a 2nd coat of red on the floor.
Chop another coil off up front, find another window winder for the 1 I broke on the n/s/f door, sure I've got a spare somewhere
Get the rear bumper repainted and get the black strip fitted, fit the saff spoiler

More pics












Even found time to put a sticker in the window :mrgreen:
