i was waiting for this post since u mentioned about BTCC replica you about to get.

Didn't really expect to see a trunk full of junk,but i like it a lot overall.

Very nice.good job restoring it

the car sounds great inside!! i also didnt expect to put new bilsteins in the front, new strut bearings, new abs sensors and roll all 4 fenders.

now the dash is finally free of lights. but of couse the idiot taking the picture, takes it with the car not running! :lol:

car now has the proper stance!

Needs a manual asap ;)

if this car becomes a keeper then it will get a swap. i will know how i feel about the car in another few weeks. got the front and rear suspension sorted out.

It had two bad bilsteins one was bent showing a -.2 camber. swapped in two new bilsteins, one new strut bearing. found out that the front springs were cut 1 coil. so i did the same with the rears. car is very very level and rides alot better than before. rolled front fenders so the pegs will stop running. also rolled right rear. Got a alaignment done. car drives so much nicer now. now i cant wait for my radio to come in.
