As for the AERO kit I would be only after the door mouldings, sill part and the Front and Rear bumpers. can you confirm price? If I was to go down this track then I would look at getting one of the Rajab Phlenums at the same time, and freight the whole lot over together. Would need to confirm a few things at my end as the wilkie kit was going to be modified so it would be different to any others out there anyway. Cheers Guys, Kris PS new blow off valve goes on today, yahoo.

I'd be interested in buying ur group A front bar cos mine is offically fu*ked now. It's cracked in numerous places and aint really worth fixing i dun think. but yea i just live down in browns bay, just a quick drive down from where you are - so i might come up and have a look at it, if and wen that suits you!? Also what side skirts have ya got on you car and will u be taking them off? cos im looking for some of em too - i've just got the calais ones but the paint is starting to crack and come off! Wel keep me updated! Cheers, Jay

How's the laps around the square going and is the gorge not blocked at the moment. use to live in parmmy for 5 years when I was in the army at Linton camp, know the place well and really enjoyed my time there. As far as Aero kits go the only place I can think of is from Oz or try Sayers Auto parts as they are NZ agents for HDT Kits or should be able to tell you if they can get them. Cheers Kris

Cheers Kris decided I was too old to keep doing laps when I did some maths and realised the skanks in the square were approaching 1/2 my age Gorge is still 1.5 lanes... rather nasty, barrelled through there today in my VL to test the new suspension. Goes around corners REAL nice! Hrm. Might just need to order me some walky sideskirts and door panels and just make a custom aero-like front and rear... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
