So another little update. Sold the old wheels and tyres today and picked up a strut brace earlier for a good price. Although its red, itll be sprayed smooth green and put on asap.

Update again. The Whiteline rear arb is now on, took about 25 mins! Im amazed what a difference it makes aswell.The car feels like its on rails going round corners now! Money well spent in my opinion!

Small boring update really. Ive been sick of the busted battery junction box so got a second hand one and have swapped them over.
As you can see the clips were broken off by the previous owner

New one in place
