just waiting for a phone call from the garage to find how much it failed on :D

but seriously it shouldnt fail on too much. a lot of the parts are brand new and the rest have been checked and refurbed/put back on as they didnt need replace (sods law now lol). but all bushed/bearings/joints, etc were replaced. it should fail on front wheel bearings, as i never did them, just bolted the hubs on as soon as they came in the post. wheel does wobble a bit when the cars jacked up.

hopefully i can get it all sorted and mot'd asap. then i just got to worry about the shifter and clocks, missing my temp and fuel guage and would nice to have a speedo and tacho too! :D

ohh and i got to say, the car is SO MUCH FUN! :D :D :D

mmm not sure. not sure what it would be like fore fitment either. if i need to i wil fit my mk4 one and see how that fairs up.

oh and front strut brace - good idea to reduce torque steer?
