I had to set the fuel and idle up at work on the gas analyser to what msd said and it goes well for what it is. I'm planning on doing a bare shell resto on it one day so will prob fit a larger turbo and that point and then have it set up by msd on their rolling road

Thanks mate. There only temporary wheels untill I can afford the lattices I bought to be refurbished and of course new tyres. I'd like to upgrade the power a bit one day with a bigger turbo but can u still get hold of a t34 or is there a modern equivalent people are using these days?

I put my FRST back on the road the other day, Not sure when I'll put my ERST on the road though... Great feeling when you drive them for the first time in a while. The Sapphire looks great, but would look that much better with amber indicators!

To be fair if someone with photoshop skills could put ambers front and rears on it to see what it would look like that would be cool

Dont put ambers on it. Imo they wont go with the colour of your car.
And no black wheel's either.
