On friday all my extra gear rocked up for the ecu. ordered a proper throttle position sensor from Wolfems and also a high speed air temp sensor. All looks good and i'll start putting it into the car this week. also going to blank off all the standard sensors like cold start, idle control etc with aluminium plates. should me it nice and sweet.

Car goes pretty well as is. i'd say close on 100kw's at the wheels on 11psi. not bad for no tuning yet, but i'll get that done once i get the blank plates made up.

then its time to put he 17's on it and sort out the rear springs, front brake upgrades and and get my gearbox built and get that fitted with a new clutch.

then its bodywork time.. yeye. finally.

well i'll be taking some photo's soon of the work anyway.
