then i fitted some proper rallye decals and my 4 point harnesses and fibreglass seats out of my imp and went to mallory park with ricky n ben, gave it a right good thrashing getting the back end out on a bend at 90mph after having it for 2 weeks :lol: :lol:

then the next mod, was to paint the roll cage, so i played about with photoshop and decided on orange.
toyed with the idea of leaving the dash out too but ended up cutting most of mine away so it looks like a car lol

so between april - july it was off the road.
i re wired the full car fitting new looms and a new ecu and nearly every sensor on the engine.
full poly bush kit front and read inc engine mount
new ball joints, track rod ends, drop links and a wheel bearing.
new brakes, brembo 4 pots off a 406 v6:

took it to USC @ santa pod, and managed a 15.8 :( but my clutch was slipping badly and when i got home i realised i had a snapped engine mount again.
just been to trax and it seems to be ok just overfuelling but ill sap it to my spare ecu see if that sorts it.
thats about it for now really got a few little bits n bats ive done to it, ill post em when i get pics.
i am still very tempted to do this:
