My brother had a GT2 and it was quick I had to fix the fuel tank for him its a weakness on the welding seem they tend to bubble and split watch out for it and dont try and weld it up LOL. You have to drop the axle just to get to it!
Getting rare I haven't seen one for about 3 years and that was a show!
Love to G60 one, but fear of killing myself!
The dash is pure class IMO! :cool:

i checked over the fuel filler when i went to collect the car and it was fine then and yer mine is rapid ino its not the quickest thing in the world but its had work done to it before i took ownership as it a verry hugh compresion engine asif its had some old school tuning decked block and skimmmed head mods maybe a cam as its running upto 14 bar compression a damn site faster than 'the book' says it should..

i liked the idea of g60 but i'de rather go carbs for now and been looking into bike carb turbo set-ups aswell.. would like to do it but not for a long time yet...

Wow!...  :cool:

I've somehow missed some progress but now all caught up... This is great.  Loving where it's going.  That manifold looks beastly.   :evil:

Great work so far, keep it up.

I think I prefer what you're already rolling with, plus you need adapters  which Im not a fan of but that's just me...

could always do them up and make some money  :grin:

If you like them though would you keep your current wheels?

i love the wheels that are allready on her but i've picked these up for peanuts so i could easily sell them on after refurbing them...

and yes i'll be keeping the 13's still and if i decide to run these wheels i shall keep both sets and swap between the two depending on time of year and if/when i fancy a change.

i can't say how much i payed for them but to show the bargain i got them for i can say that the wheel pcd addaptors definately cost more than what the wheels cost me... and thats including delivery from 265 miles away  :laugh:
