looking very very nice though mate and love the big illest sticker

You should have come ultimate dubs man, was awesome, but yer i seen that meet advertised there yesterday, sounds good, il let u know for deffo near the time.

Cheeeers
 
Oh dear, these should not be fitted to GP they just end up blinding everyone.

They actually have a beam pattern unlike most others, so dont blind everyone, plus had its first MOT the other day, sorted the shock out, it passed with no problems at all.

For some reason, I reckon a white tyre pen on your tyres would suit your car.

Possibly but i dont think Federal highlighted would look the best haha.

LOve this car mate, cracking job (y)

Thanks bud.
 
Bad news;

Driveshaft has popped out again :( this time its taken a chunk out of the cup it sits in, so a new cup and spider bearing are on order.

I have noticed more recently that 4th gear is getting worse and worse so i decided while the car is off the road to whip the gearbox out, going to send it away this week hopefully its only going to be 4th gear syncro that has gone and wont cost too much, also going to replace the clutch and slave cylinder while its out, the flywheel seems okay..at the moment anyway lol

Inooo so do i lol cheers, and yer got it done about a year ago, good cheap mod tbh, only mines actually painted not vinyled haha, yer I think iv found a solution and it doesn't involve shaft extension :) if it works it will be a hell of a lot cheaper aswell! Il let u know how it goes anyway, got some new wheels in mind so it better had work! (y)

What you thinking then? Spacers :D
I tried contacting tjetoates about the extended shafts but heard nothing
 
Yer engine and gbox spacers, I was weighing it up at the weekend and I'm almost certain it will work, il do some pics and a diagram of what I'm thinking :D and yer unfortunately i think toates has left the GP crew (n)

I think he's being sneaky, I saw him in his car a week or 2 ago, may have sold it by now though whooo knoooows! Don't go selling your's Loocas! :D
