Hey all,

the tyres turned up last night, so today i got them fitted and threw them on the car..

the 7.5s on the front caused a bit of bother with the 288mm discs n pads, ive had to run 5mm spacers and take a small amount off the bottom of the pads because they were fouling the wheels...

well here are the pics, i really need a decent backbox now though...









and i fitted my steering wheel

Well i havent done an update for quite some time..

I dont even know where to start lol...

I picked up a full milltek system with twin pipe from one of the lads for 100 quid... ive thrown that on, its not sitting quite right atm and catching on rear beam, but i have my mot next sat and ill throw the decat on then. Hoping that the pipe will sit a bit better then...

Mal had the decency to sort me out with the arch roller.. happy days :D so they are rolled as well as i could. This is because i managed to pick up 25mm spacers from gotwood on htt for a brill price. Ive thrown them on the front and my 5mm spacers on the back, although im tempted to get 20mm spacers for the rear now haha

I did try the 25mm spacers on the rear for sh!ts and giggles, you can see the pics below. I also picked up a nice ROHR inlet pipe, but i need to crack on with some samcos to mount it up. Its got a perfect oil breather knuckle on it for the DV when i finally get the bloody eaton on haha

anyways heres the pics..













....

heres the rears with the 25mm spacers.. hotness me thinks...





and the front with 25mm spacers.. although these pics dont do it justice..






and introducing the best thing since sliced bread.. my new pup ollie..
