I can't believe how much your car has changed since I saw it a year ago!
Well done! It looks fantastic!

yeah, found a great set for a great price, in good time as my previous tyres were running on belts, so I slapped these on and Achielles 123's :D

Ok so photo spam time!! :D

Since the last posts, I have added a Automotive Plus Single Hoop Torque Box roll bar, 2 Sparco Sprint V seats and a Sparco 4 point Harness for the driver side.

Firstly some nice shots a friend took whilst driving up Springbrook Mountain showing off the Watanabe wheels. (Pre mods).

A lovely test shot at Wellington Point waterfront.

And my Automotive Plus Single Hoop Torque Box roll bar taken during a photoshoot:

I chose white because the majority of roll bars i see are black and I decided to try something different, plus i feel the White roll bar matches the body color really well!

A open bonnet shot showing the engine during the same photoshoot above. First time trying this and now I feel like doing engine aesthetic modifications! Possibly Cam Cover and some painting where possible?

Looking good mate, agree with the colour of the roll bar, really sets it off.

Current unpdate, car is sitting in a shed at my uncles place. old open center NA6 diff is out and swapped with a Torsen T1 including all the obvious bits such as shafts and joint. Replaced rear main seal and finally installed a lightweight flywheel and NPC heavy duty Excedy clutch. Everything went on nice and snug...turned it on and wont go into gear whilst car is on and will also try to pull forward if the brake is not on.

Sooooooooo next few days will be the clutch Master and slave cylinders and possibly flipping the clutch around as it may have been installed backwards. Fun times :cry:
