Not sure if I mentioned, but I took the Spax PSX off the front and put VT ones on as they were too low. I then took those VT ones off and put on my VT, as I got two lowering springs off Ash (thanks mate) and two shocks off Stoo - one was different to the other - the shaft was much shorter and couldn't get the spring compressed enough, so I had to take a Shuttle shock apart and put the lowering spring on that for the time being. So at the front I have one 16v shock with a lowering spring, and the other side a Shuttle shock with lowering spring. Stoo sent me the right shock, but it's collapsed and no good to anyone!

I've fitted the newly painted manifold heat shield and also polished up a manky radiator cap I had.

It was at a reasonable price, I couldnt resist, although the ad said it was 13" when its just over 14", so I'll have a little moan to him about that hahaha

Flare indeed Mr. James ;)

Here's some new pics after the Banzai shoot today, this is probably the last update now too. After today and driving it some more it is going to be very sad to see it go.
