Just taken the car for a spin after repairing the cam bearings all seems good, rewrapped the downpipe aswell. I cannot decide weather to sell the secs monitor or not, my dash setup means it wont go where they usually do. Ive tried a few other places but just doesnt look right.

Not put anything on for a while, took the car for its MOT today, no real dramas it passed ok. Should do really only done 500miles since the last one, forget how fast it is when you havent driven it for a while.

Looks so nice Si, looking at the kit shows how well the car is put together considering how you bought it
have you ever considered the side mouldings? or do you prefer this look?

Car looks great but that isn't a 3 door rocker cover as 3 doors had the hole with 2 slots not a screw cap, think that a 4x4 one, still fits though

Started to make a side exit exhaust out of steel to start with, not sure if its going on the mk2 or the 3dr yet. Going to make one up first then do one in stainless, me and my mate paul started it tonight just got the basic shape so far needs welding finishing and smoothing off.
