So I may strip the interior out and all the carpet etc but I do love the OE look interior.
Booked Cadwell for this Monday and then realised the missus is at work so I have my two girls :-(
Tbh I would have like to get these fitted and tracking done first so it's not to bad.
I have a clunk and...
So finally got the car on the RR to see how it would perform as had a few issues with it not running right.
Was RR by previous owner @TimR26 when he had it at Surrey RR I believe.
It ran 168.8 which is good. Since then it's had new injectors, fatty induction kit and a new OE map sensor and...
Just had the shoot with Daniel Jenkins and got some great shots.
And my favourite pic (sorry I love a few pics)

Something isn't right with it and timing was out quite abit. It's changed the idle some but it still has a running issue. It drives fine but I'm sure I'll get to the bottom of the problem

Checked for trapped leads and all are connected correctly.
Cheers

Mark black did them and the bushes where shagged. Outer shell that sits in the beam was in there solid so he used a air hammer and took about 4 mins to get them out.
Just driving on road you can tell the stiffness has changed so much.
Ok ok ok
Delayed update as had issues with a few things and missed FCS due to not having time or weather permitting.
Anyway........
Cage in, seats in, harnesses in :-)
Also fitted the rear carbon fibre washer blank and got the callipers ready for shot blasting. And fitted my black series...
