Been awhile


You remember the barn don't you?


Required reading, though the Calibra one is abit shitty.


Wheel's I got off Dan.T (thanks mate!), currently sitting on jr's driveway awaiting new rubber


As you can see, everything is wired and piped up, notice my Willay Air Induction kit (tm)


and proud!


Awaiting to be molestered by the discs sitting on my shelf, braided hoses, H&R coils, new shiney nuts and suspension arms





My random pallet of death in the corner


Old bits replaced


Random shot of the barn, can see the new exhaust system ready to go on!

Also jr is absolutely right, I've brought shame on the South-East region by taking appox 9-10 months getting this as far as I have. My main problem has been motiviation and time, but lately with some help of some unnamed kent elfs, I've felt like doing more

hide the keys to your other car, then you'd definately get the sleeper sorted faster.

I think the whole reasoning behind replacing most of the suspension/arms was M15T XE saying to me "thats why brad went into a ditch"
