little update, car got up to mod-nats perfectly, as i left and i mean i drove 5 miles tops, a wheels come loose but stayed on the hub, found out that 2 bolts had sheered!!!!!! on my adaptor, so have had a massive rant at k-tec about them but they dont seem to give a sh1t!!! But the car didnt miss a beat!!

Cars comeing off the road thursday, going to sort the hub, ( and ill be getting the money back) takeing inlet off, all other hubs to paint them up. coilovers are comeing off to be cleaned, im wrapping the spoiler, removeing abs pump to try sort it out, doing n112 by pass, removing secondry air, trying to get a new front bumper and smooth it, and try get new side skirt, remove all seats and clean it like mad!!

Also though the winter i might be getting it re-sprayed again lol

And between all that ill be in le-man, so fun times!!! :D

tom how come your grills are standard ones not honeycomb'd , nice tig welds on the ic pipes got to get my tig welder out and finish off mine

not too sure tbh it came with them when i had it, but tbh i think i prefer them to huneycom'd cause there quiet subtle but im going to get the honeycombe'd too and see what i prefer lol

Na Just the wheels for now, Im actively looking for a a lotus exige or elise, so i can fit the 20valver in ;)

But thats the plan for next year or so, unless a bargin comes up.

Just meant for wheels tbh, cause i want to get the handling better on it, so ill spend a load on the chassis lol .

Just searching for some light weight wheels :D
