Good work man, I'm about an hour away from the yard now, and as soon as I get in I'm heading to the garage to get all my bits and pieces done. OPD - the last minute rush society ;) Funny part of it, chip, the person who had the most to do, has actually finished way before us lol

So true. My cup I just picked up is pungent :(

You can fit recaro's to a 172 seat base but its alot of cutting and welding

Exactly the same

Running a nice new dephaser with dirty oil?

It is on the f4r, the earlier engines is as OP

Yeh that'll do

Not really, wall paper scraper if push came to shove!
