i'm on hold to egg at the moment, i recon 1.5k should be enough to get the basics done
for the money ive spent on my car i coulda built a 500+bhp esccos
My List of jobs to get done befoer the ring:
1)Buy + Fit Cams
Paint camcovers+plenum
Clean engine bay
2) Change Wheel Bearing
Fit GrpA Fuelpump
Change fuelfilter
Fit new brakes
Fit adjustable TCAs
Fit/Refit silicon hoses
3) Rewire fuel pump
Rewire Alternator
Rewire starter
4) Get wheel welded +refurbed + replace with my bet one!
5) Get the suspension setup
altho thinking about it, thats kinda the only jobs that need doing... ever. after that the car will have NO faults or old niggly bits!!!!!!

imagine owning a perfect car! (bugger ive just remembered i need my door repainted coz the paints gone manky, so 99% perfect car...)
