lol sounds like a great plan i hope it all goes well and it would be awesome to see a vlt especially a plated yellow bt1 doing targa and duttons. mind boggle next to all of the other machines out there. also congratulations on the SC feature i was blown away as i had never realised when i saw this thing in skin at easternats just how much effort was put into the brake / suspension package. on another note the car will be a million times better without the interior its not to my tastes, however it is very well done and presented. will the new interior be weight reduction spec? all yellow metal or are you thinking some doortrims and carpet will make it in there? - Mitch

Lightweight spec interior for sure, some carpet, a little carbon fibre and a cage to keep me company.

the carbon fibre dash and light weight interior will be awesome. just the front piece of a 2 piece carpet at a guess for drive comfort. good luck with the rebuild it will be great to see it done for the new season of competition.

Some new parts have arrived, no JC the cams are not here yet and you know it so dont even ask. New head from Japan. Exhaust manifold and wastegate are here, ill get some pics up soon. New link ecu and turbo has been ordered, new ignition setup is on its way, all the cams, springs and lifters should be here in about 4 weeks, valves are on there way. Just need an inlet manifold, cant decide on which one at the moment, probably a hypertune one.

\ New 6boost manifold and 50mm turbo smart wastegate, fitted the manifold to the head and had a look, I have to say it couldnt have fitted better, perfect, really happy with the quality of the manifold.

Quite scary when you add up what it cost and not only that but whats already been spent on this car. We quickly hit the 'C' button with that figure never to be seen again.
