I wasnt sure about the grille at first, its grown on me though and I love it now
 
Thanks :)

had the car on the track at Castle Combe to see what it could do, I was very impressed, handles fantasticaly for such a tall car, notice the taped up lights lol

oooo you have been on the ring?! whats it like, I want to go next year, the lights and springs are deffo the best mods for a GP
 
well worth it, cost a fortune though! Cost bout £700 all in for a long weekend and that's when the pound was good against the euro, would budget a couple hundred more now :( ..was my first track day experience and word can't explain, is awesome only did bout 12 or so laps over the days but bear in mind each lap is like 13/14miles - quite a few laps of a british track. The diesel fares well cause it's alot up hill, etc and the torque really shows. I was bottoming out on standard springs, so with Eibach ull need to be carefull!
 
Update Time

Now re-mapped to 183bhp and 316 ft/lbs, nothin else really done due to me being laid off and out of work for the past 6 months :(

Im back working again now though and I quite fancy a bit of audio and a new back box, as well as some 20mm spacers for the back and some form of ARB if I can find one

I ended up in the same spot as a picture I took on page 1, thought I would re take now the car is lower and has a new grille

Yeah al legal again now, been out on the track again too, could do with a bit more front end grip, dont think the cheap tyres help, need new rears now anyway so Im thinking Toyo TR1s this time round, Il have some 20mm spacers for the rear and som abarth rear lights on it soon too

Another update, bit of a bad one this time though :(

some little ***** have broke into my garage and stole my Kawasaki KX250 motorcross bike, the car was in there at the time and this is the damaged caused during the process, could have been alot lot worse but its still a £400 bodyshop bill before Ive even thought of buying a new headlight :mad:

:eek: sorry Matty, that's horrible! I guess they could've taken the car too??

But still, I would've gone mental if this had happened to mine so I'm sorry again!
 
:)

TBF they could have taken alot of things out of the garage that night, £400 worth of scrap copper all bagged up right in front of the door ready for us to take in the morning, a chainsaw that was on the bike that they kindly left on the work bench ect, the bike was deffo stolen to order, cant wait for monday till its all sorted, I even hate driving it at the moment :(
