You sent yours off for the cage yet?? Deffo get some pics posted once its done as I'm looking forward to seeing it!!

I'm not planning any engine mods at the moment...to be honest I'm quite happy with its power I'd just like it to handle a bit better. I'm thinking about buying an bike [R6] instead of ploughing anymore money into the car.

They are 17x7...I would deffo go for black wheels. I think they look spot-on on most colour cars [including black]

Mine are 16's. How far is your suspension dropped? Ive got two sprayed in silver, two just in undercoat, think black is the way to go.

The suspension is dropped -45mm if I remember rightly. [But don't forget its fully stripped in the back so if your car is fully trimmed it will sit much lower at the back. It doesn't rub at all

rs tommy

Thats the one Get it purchased....very good price as well
