looks good matt.
you need to remove the locks on the front doors and lose the handles on the rear doors 
oh and some gloss black mirrors would look good too

Cheers guys.
Boost controlled by boost valve to the wastegate as it's not ecu controlled like common belief. Wouldn't recommend running any more than 1.4 bar tho.

wow! no update on this in ages!!!!!
well, now have some lovely stretch on the tyres (pics will follow shortly) using a 165/50/15v bridgestone potenza tyre...... havev nothing bad to say about these, absolute quality tyre, really grippy however, this has now shown up even more what i expected in that the wheels dont sit out far enough so i've ordered some 25mm hubcentric spacers and bolts to help fill the arches out also was left feeling that the ride height doesnt quite cut it so have ordered my fk coilovers this evening
now its just waiting for the spacers and coilovers to arrive and then its fun fun fun fitting it all
pics will follow soon i promise

few new mods done to the car.
before spacers:
after 25mm spacers:
stretched tyres:
side shot with the wheels spaced out:
overall shot of how the car looks atm (please excuse the dirt on the car, not been washed in a week!) :
next on the list is fitting my fk coilovers when they arrive and refurbing alloys again as they're looking a bit tierd around the rims.
cheers for looking, all comments good and bad welcome.
