:lol: I'm feel honoured.
But still not on the track and thats my goal.. although I keep making things up to do that are not needed.. I like to work on the car too..
Got some LED running lights to connect,
Going to rebuild a set of tail lights with LED
Want to make a rear diffuser and front splitter
brake cooling ducting
etc etc...

First have to get it MOT ready.. can't test it on the track if it doesnt run/handle well.

Everybody seems to like it but not heard anyone say it will help enough :mrgreen:
The Spoon brace? I have one installed on my car since my cage does not goes through to the top of the my shock towers.

Ahh the bar that replaces the slam panel. Yeah it should be fine. I think most of the structural strength will be provided by the lower cross beam where the radius rods attach to, rather than the slam panel itself.

Had a bit of fun again today.. lude was out playing.. good thing I had the semi slicks on and the tarmac was warm..
Have some 19mm spacers and extended ARP studs for the back to be fitted soon..
But eventually a 5 lug conversion with new wheels and a Stoptech bigbrake kit.
