04-08-13, 18:42 GMT+10#501 took her down to the drags last weekend, drove it there (about an hour and a half drive for me) chucked some slicks on and went for it. full exhaust and full trim, managed to run a best of 10.990 @121mph. was a wicked day and the best part was being able to drive it home with no issues.

04-11-13, 13:14 GMT+10#505 car is still up for sale, havnt really had anyone with cash keen on it. a lot of time wasters which is to be expected. not much has happened lately, fixing up a few little bits and pieces at the moment, just fitted a new indicator stalk. about to replace both drivers side outter door handles, feel like they are about to break. and gonna replace the passengers power window reg, motor sounds horrible and struggles to go up and down.
also just ordered some heat wrap, im gonna pull the manifold off and wrap it, possibly thinking about changing wastegates while its off too. will update with some new pics shortly

then painted them up and also bought some h/d nolathane upper trailing arms

while the arms were out I replaced the diff bushs with nolathane ones also. used a tool a mate of mine had made, turns it into quite anmd easy job.

11-11-13, 20:42 GMT+10#508 took it for a drive after work tonight, also should say I put the pedders sports ryder superlow springs in at the same time. had standard fe2's in before. seems a lot stiffer in the ass end. seemed to wanna fry the tyres easier lol even though it did that anyway, but definitely feels more solid.
