I think Amber's are the way forward rather than clears

Got the sump baffle in the sump and back on the engine:

Got the front Gaz Gold coilovers on after having to modify them a little bit so the strut bearings could function as they should rather than just being seized solid when tightened up. When I spoke to one of the guys at Gaz about the problem when I dropped them back to be modified (converted from 4x4 to 2wd), he suggested just leaving the nut loose! Yeah righto! Got it sorted though. I had to file out the bit on the shock that the pinch bolt passes through when it's slid into the hub as it covered about half of the hole of the hub. Not something I would expect to have to piss about given the price of the things but hey ho, they're on now!

Going to do a few more bits today and the engine should be in on Sunday with any luck!
