i get it home on thursday so i'll post pictures up then
sounds like a good buy, hope u enjoy it!

just a couple of things.

make sure that its got the 16v brakes on it! (256mm discs and bigger calipers) if not its worth getting some.

courtney in general have a good name, but just be carefully how they got the big block gearbox working. (new inner cv's with nova shafts, or complete new shafts)
ive snapped an uprated shaft before and heard about others that have done it.
but nova gte shafts tend to be stronger.
