Needs a cat i have been told as the car is a T reg and the engine is a 1995....
Ordered some important bits today, a set of goodridge brake pipes from demon tweeks and a alloy radiator.
Radiator will need some modifications as its not going to be a straight fit. At least with the alloy one it will be possible to make these changes with the help of a tig welder.

Going to drill some holes or cut out behind the plate but i am going to keep the plate in the position it is for day to day use.
I have already cut a bit out of it in those pictures. Does need more though as i want it a little further forward.
